A dangerous winter storm is bringing snow, ice and freezing rain to portions of the Midwest and Northeast on Thursday. 
Another storm is following close behind and is expected to arrive this weekend. Here's a look at the potential impacts of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43108615/southern-power-grids-face-historic-winter-test-as-snow-blankets-gulf">the winter weather. </a>
The Details: A moist air mass collided with cold air across the Midwest, Ohio Valley and Northeast, producing a corridor of sleet and freezing rain on Thursday.
&#8220;A storm sweeping across the central and eastern United States will bring a swath of hazardous freezing rain through Thursday,&#8221; warned AccuWeather Meteorologist Brandon Buckingham.
Blustery winds will enter the region behind the storm with maximum wind gusts of 65 miles per hour Thursday into Friday, <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/winter-weather/dangerous-snow-and-ice-storm-to-snarl-travel-across-the-midwest-northeast/1741400">according to</a> AccuWeather.&nbsp;

Forecast: Meteorologists warn that another winter storm will hit many of the same areas affected by Thursday's storm. A mix of snow, ice and rain or thunderstorms will advance from the Central states and head for the East Coast Friday night through Sunday morning.
Stocks To Watch: Observers expect Lowe&#8217;s Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) and Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) stores will have increased traffic as consumers buy salt, shovels and snowblowers to handle the storm. 
Walmart, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) could also see a bump in sales as shoppers stock up on groceries and other household essentials. 
There is an increased risk of power outages, especially with freezing rain and ice in the forecast. 
Eversource Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) and Consolidated Edison, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ED#NYSE">ED</a>) are two power companies that operate in the Northeast. Observers would be wise to monitor those stocks in the event of widespread outages. 
Travelers should expect Thursday&#8217;s weather to affect flights through the weekend. JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) has major hubs in New York City and Boston. Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) is also on watch as the air carrier operates all ten of the busiest US routes from Boston Logan International Airport.

Eversource Energy's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.21% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.14 million shares sold short, which is 1.81% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.36 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Eversource Energy Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738783812_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Eversource Energy has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Eversource Energy's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Eversource Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.24%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Is The Market Feeling About Eversource Energy?

SJW Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SJW#NASDAQ">SJW</a>) improved its financial and regulatory execution, which provides "a clear and achievable growth story," according to BofA Securities.
The SJW Group Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5e6f86a05f2b9b000114a9e2/ross-fowler">Analyst Ross Fowler</a> upgraded the rating for SJW Group from Neutral to Buy, while cutting the price target from $59 to $55.
The SJW Group Thesis: The stock is currently trading at a 15% discount to peers, representing the lowest multiple "of any pure-play U.S. water utility," Fowler said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
"We think the company&#8217;s improved EPS consistency and constructive regulatory outcomes set up SJW to execute against its long-term 5%-7% EPS guidance range," he added.
Eversource Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) announced it will proceed with a sale of Aquarion to the state of Connecticut, which "bodes well for SJW as it removes a near-term overhang and should allow for multiple expansion," the analyst stated.
"We think SJW ultimately would benefit for added scale and the team showed its discipline in the Aquarion process, but the risk of future M&amp;A may be higher for SJW than some of its peers," he further wrote.
SJW Price Action: Shares of SJW Group had risen by 2.63% to $51.55 at the time of publication on Monday.

On Tuesday, Eversource Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) announced its acquisition of a 26-acre portion of the Mystic property from Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>).
This acquisition is part of Eversource&#8217;s broader plan to support Massachusetts&#8217; clean energy transition while maintaining <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42671838/eversource-acquires-mystic-property-from-constellation" rel="noreferrer noopener">reliable service across New England.</a>
The Mystic site, located in Everett, holds significant potential to become a multi-use energy interconnection hub for large-scale renewable sources like offshore wind, hydro, battery storage, and even nuclear energy.
The existing infrastructure and its strategic location make it an ideal site for electrification and addressing the region&#8217;s energy reliability needs.
Eversource has yet to outline specific plans for the property but aims to collaborate with Massachusetts, Everett officials, and other stakeholders to develop a plan for next year.

The site, adjacent to a proposed soccer stadium, could play a critical role in improving electric reliability in New England, helping Massachusetts meet its electrification and decarbonization goals.
Eversource&#8217;s Chairman, Joe Nolan, emphasized that the acquisition would provide a unique opportunity to support economic development, create jobs, and drive forward clean energy initiatives.
The purchase of the Mystic property also offers a chance to enhance grid reliability, mitigate potential congestion in the regional transmission system, and ease the integration of renewables. However, the transaction will not immediately impact customer bills, allowing Eversource to plan and develop the site without additional financial burdens on consumers.
Price Action: ES shares closed higher by 0.17% to $57.28 on Tuesday.

Eversource Acquires Mystic Property from Constellation to Support Clean Energy Transition

Strategic location offers unique opportunity to ensure reliability for the New England region and advance Massachusetts&#39; clean energy transition by interconnecting multiple renewable energy sources
With a focus on helping to enable Massachusetts&#39; unprecedented clean energy transition while ensuring safe, reliable service for customers across New England, Eversource has acquired a 26-acre portion of the Mystic property from Constellation Energy. Eversource has not developed specific plans for the site at this time, but its strategic location, historic use, and existing infrastructure uniquely position it as a potential multi-use energy interconnection hub for large-scale renewable energy sources &ndash; including onshore or offshore wind, hydro, battery storage and nuclear among others &ndash; with the capacity to support electrification and meet the reliability needs for major energy users in the region. Over the coming year, Eversource will collaborate closely with Massachusetts and Everett officials and other stakeholders to develop a plan for the property, which is adjacent to the site of the proposed soccer stadium in Everett, to improve electric reliability in New England while also helping to advance Massachusetts&#39; electrification and decarbonization goals.
