Digital Realty Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLR#NYSE">DLR</a>): The data center company saw increased interest over the week, which could be related to the announcement of The Stargate Project, which includes SoftBank, OpenAI and Oracle. The plan calls for AI infrastructure to be built to help America's presence in the growing sector. Digital Realty has received several<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DLR/analyst-ratings"> increased price targets</a> from analysts in the month of January with optimism for the data center space. Goldman Sachs analyst Kash Rangan said The Stargate Project could provide a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43163656/stargate-project-microsoft-gains-oracle-waits-data-centers-face-long-term-questions">short-term boost</a> for Digital Realty, but has questions on the long-term impact.
"We see the announcement as a tactical positive, as we believe it reflects tighter supply/demand market dynamics than the market expects over the next two years," Rangan said.
The analyst said the project and other future projects could signal a shift away from outsourced data centers.

Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Energy Transfer's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ET#NYSE">ET</a>) short percent of float has fallen 15.69% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 39.74 million shares sold short, which is 1.29% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.94 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Energy Transfer 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 Energy Transfer'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>, Energy Transfer's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.36%, 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>

Looking Into Energy Transfer's Recent Short Interest

Looking for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/dividends">steady cash flow</a> in 2025? JPMorgan analysts have spotlighted four income-generating stock picks that offer dividend appeal and potential price upside. 
These are: Annaly Capital Management Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLY#NYSE">NLY</a>), Corning Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLW#NYSE">GLW</a>), Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ET#NYSE">ET</a>) and HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HASI#NYSE">HASI</a>).
Here are the details on their top picks.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Annaly Capital</h2>
With a hefty forward dividend yield of 13.85% (per <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent122024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro</a> data), Annaly Capital shines as a beacon for income seekers. 
Analyst Richard Shane expects the mortgage REIT to benefit from a gradual yield curve steepening and rising MBS prices as quantitative tightening eases. 
Trading near $19.76, NLY is viewed as a stable dividend play, supported by mid-teen ROEs and rising interest spreads, according to the analyst. His price target for 2025 is $20.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Corning</h2>
Known for its innovation in glass and fiber optics, Corning offers more than shiny screens. 
Its modest 2.38% yield may seem subdued, but JPMorgan's Samik Chatterjee says this tech titan is poised for high-single-digit revenue growth. 
Riding on data center demand, telecom recovery, and AI-driven innovation, Corning's stock—currently at $48.18—has room to climb to $60 by the end of 2025, the analyst says.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Energy Transfer</h2>
Pipeline powerhouse Energy Transfer is turning heads with a forward dividend yield of 7.06%. 
Analyst Jeremy Tonet sees untapped value in its discounted EV/EBITDA ratio compared to peers. 
With fundamentals like Permian egress and natgas logistics firing on all cylinders, ET, trading at $18.70, appears poised to reach Tonet's $23 target, presenting a compelling opportunity for midstream investors.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HASI</h2>
Sustainability meets income in Hannon Armstrong Sustainable Infrastructure Capital. HASI's 6.29% yield sweetens the deal for this eco-friendly investment.
JPMorgan's Mark Strouse predicts a brighter outlook thanks to its KKR partnership and investment-grade rating. With shares at $28.72, Strouse forecasts a $42 price by 2025 as HASI reduces its reliance on public capital raises and executes on stable spreads.
Whether you're chasing high yields or balanced growth, these four income plays could be the backbone of your 2025 portfolio. 
From Annaly's robust dividends to Corning's AI-driven potential, JPMorgan's picks are all about turning steady streams into rivers of returns.

On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>) is one of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/OXY/analyst-ratings">&#8220;least favorite oils.&#8221;</a>
