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.

Peering Into West Pharmaceutical Servs's Recent Short Interest

While Donald Trump has secured a return to the White House, Republicans are still fighting to confirm control of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/congress">the House of Representatives. </a>
With their newly gained Senate majority, GOP leaders are optimistic about establishing a full governing trifecta that would grant them legislative momentum for the next two years, The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2024/11/06/whats-next-2024-election-swing-states-senate-house-popular-vote/">reports</a>.
What Happened: Republicans are defending their narrow majority in the House, with several critical districts yet to be called. Both parties are closely watching the remaining 20 uncalled districts, which will determine whether Republicans secure unified control in Washington or if Democrats flip the House, challenging the GOP's agenda, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/06/house-control-majority-republicans-red-sweep-democrats.html">according </a>to CNBC.
Here's the list of the 20 uncalled House races at the time of publication Wednesday, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/house-results">according</a> to NBC News:

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) expressed early optimism, saying, "As more results come in, it is clear that, as we have predicted all along, Republicans are poised to have unified government in the White House, Senate, and House." 
Meanwhile, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said Wednesday that the fight for control of the chamber "remains very much in play," according to The Post.
"In a challenging electoral environment, House Democrats are once again defying political gravity,&#8221; Jeffries said, citing the "enduring strength of our battle-tested incumbents" and other promising signs, such as seat pickups in New York.
Why It Matters: Control of the House will directly impact the next Congress&#8217;s legislative dynamics, particularly with a Trump administration in office. A Republican-controlled House would support Trump&#8217;s agenda with minimal legislative hurdles, while a Democratic win could introduce checks on his administration's policies. 
Key upcoming battles in Congress include government funding measures, which expire in December, and debates on tax policies, with Trump's team aiming to make the 2017 tax cuts permanent.
Republicans currently hold 220 seats in the House, while Democrats have 212 seats, along with three vacancies. The tight race underscores the significance of each uncalled district as the GOP and Democratic Party brace for potential recounts and legal challenges.

House Control Uncertain As Trump Secures White House Return

Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) companies, including tech giants Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) and ByteDance, are investing heavily in advertising to gain a foothold in the competitive AI market.
In the third quarter alone, these companies spent over 500 million yuan ($70.2 million) on promotional campaigns for various AI applications, SCMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3285132/chinese-ai-firms-are-splurging-ads-report-finds-chatbot-market-gets-crowded" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Among the big spenders, Alibaba allocated nearly 200 million yuan to promote Quark, a cloud storage and online search platform enhanced with generative AI features.

Spending on its ChatGPT-like service, Tongyi Qianwen, was notably lower at 4.5 million yuan. A Tongyi Qianwen spokesperson disputed this figure, SCMP says.
The significant marketing budgets have sparked concerns within China about the sustainability of such high spending.
Chinese AI startup Moonshot AI, backed by Alibaba and Tencent Holdings (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), is among the top ad spenders, with approximately 150 million yuan devoted to promoting its chatbot.
The company's substantial ad budget reflects the increasingly crowded AI market, where hundreds of chatbots are vying for user attention. However, a source close to Moonshot told the SCMP that AppGrowing's data on the company's ad spending is exaggerated.
Yan Junjie, CEO of Shanghai-based AI firm MiniMax, highlighted a fundamental difference in strategy between Chinese and U.S. AI companies.
While American companies rely on product capabilities to attract users, Chinese companies heavily invest in online marketing to differentiate their offerings.
Chinese tech giants Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) spent $7 billion on AI-focused infrastructure and processors in the first half of this year, a significant rise from last year.
Despite increased spending, China's AI capital investments lag behind U.S. firms like Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), which <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40550305/nvidia-tech-fuels-chinese-ai-growth-overseas-alibaba-ramps-up-7b-investment" rel="noreferrer noopener">spent $106 billion</a>. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41151741/nvidias-ai-leadership-to-drive-1-trillion-market-growth-with-accenture-partnership-" rel="noreferrer noopener">projected $1 trillion</a> in AI capital spending by U.S. tech giants, with Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) a key beneficiary.
Price Action: BABA stock traded lower by 2.93% at $96.31 at the last check on Wednesday.

Alibaba's AI Strategy: Massive Ad Spend to Dominate Crowded Market

Longer-dated U.S. Treasury bonds, tracked by the popular iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>), saw their steepest decline in over a year on Wednesday, plummeting more than 2.6%, as investors offloaded fixed-income assets amid rising expectations of wider budget deficits and higher inflation, spurred by Donald Trump&#8216;s victory <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">in the presidential election. </a>
This bond sell-off comes one day before a pivotal Federal Reserve interest rate decision scheduled for 2 p.m. ET Thursday.
The Federal Reserve is broadly expected to cut interest rates by 25 basis points to a range of 4.5%–4.75%, a move fully priced in by market participants, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.
While the rate decision itself is almost certain, investors will be more focused on Fed Chair Jerome Powell's remarks, which may offer crucial insights into the Fed&#8217;s stance on the evolving inflation and fiscal policy.
Fed watchers are keen to highlight if a potential shift in fiscal policy under Trump could prompt the Fed to modify its approach.
Economists broadly agree that tariffs and tax cuts are likely to drive up inflation, potentially leading to a more hawkish response from the Federal Reserve. JPMorgan analysts estimate that universal tariffs, coupled with domestic tax cuts, could increase U.S. inflation by as much as 2.4%. 
Goldman Sachs chief economist Jan Hatzius suggests that Trump's policies might keep core inflation above 3% by 2025, well above the Fed's 2% target. Hatzius highlighted that these factors &#8220;might delay cuts that would otherwise come more swiftly.&#8221;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Fed Expected To Cut Rates In November, But All Eyes Are On What Comes Next</h3>
"We expect a 25-basis-point cut in November, with Powell likely to maintain an optimistic tone," said Bank of America rates analyst Mark Cabana. He explained that softer-than-expected jobs data for October, combined with downward payroll revisions, were key factors solidifying the case for this November rate cut.
Bank of America also indicated that these labor data trends increase the likelihood of another rate cut in December.
Goldman Sachs economist David Mericle highlighted that recent inflation data has eased concerns about inflation reaccelerating. &#8220;Better inflation news has alleviated fears of sticky inflation from earlier in the year,&#8221; he said. He also emphasized strong Q3 GDP growth as a sign of resilience in the U.S. economy, despite a cooling labor market.
Goldman Sachs now forecasts four additional cuts in the first half of next year, bringing rates down to 3.25%–3.5%.
Mericle acknowledged "uncertainty about both the pace and final rate" of future cuts, noting that the Fed&#8217;s path forward will depend heavily on evolving economic data.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Will Trump Pressure Powell on Interest Rates?</h3>
During Thursday&#8217;s Q&amp;A, Powell will likely face questions on whether the Fed plans to act preemptively or reactively in response to changing fiscal dynamics.
Investors are eager to understand if the Fed will proactively address anticipated inflation or wait for economic data to reflect any significant change.
Powell, whose term expires in 2026, could also be questioned about the Fed's independence. In his previous term, Trump frequently pressured the Fed to lower rates and has hinted that, if re-elected, he would not renew Powell's term. 
During Trump's first presidency, he issued over hundreds of tweets criticizing Fed policy, often urging for lower rates, according to data shared by the Brookings Institution. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Could Markets React To November Fed Meeting?</h3>
Market data suggest a 70% probability of another 25-basis-point cut at the Fed's Dec. 18 meeting, down slightly from 77% the previous day.
If Powell delivers dovish remarks that reinforce expectations of a December rate cut, risk assets could rally. The S&amp;P 500, represented by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), might respond positively, while small-cap stocks, tracked by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), may extend gains following Wednesday's rally.
Conversely, if Powell signals hesitation about further rate cuts, particularly in December, and indicates a potential inclination toward addressing rising inflation expectations, investors could be disappointed, potentially putting downward pressure on the markets.

Shares of companies within the broader industrial sector are trading higher after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

$68,000 has been identified as a critical support level for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), following its surge to a new all-time high <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41775353/bitcoin-hits-new-all-time-high-as-donald-trump-wins-second-term-what-now">on election night</a>.
What Happened: In a comprehensive breakdown of Bitcoin&#8217;s performance over the past seven months, crypto trader Scient identified two similar structures within this period: a bearish and a bullish structure.
He <a href="https://x.com/Crypto_Scient/status/1854099370624397670">noted</a> that the first, bearish range formed a high at $73,800 and lows at $59,000. After sweeping the lows at $59,000, it failed to reclaim the demand at this level, resulting in a breakdown and formation of a new low at $53,300.
The second range, bullish in nature, had highs at $70,000 and lows at $53,300. Respecting these lows, it swept the $53,300 lows, followed by a successful retest of the $53,300 lows to confirm the support. This resulted in a bounce and reclaiming of the demand at lows, confirming the strength of the market.

Scient asserts that Bitcoin's current one-day chart remains robust, with $68,000 acting as a crucial support. However, he warns that a break below this could lead to renewed market uncertainty.  
Echoing Scient's analysis, crypto trader Pentoshi expressed confidence in Bitcoin&#8217;s momentum, anticipating a rally beyond $100,000 in the coming months:

<a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/06/biden-trump-ukraine-assistance-00187897">https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/06/biden-trump-ukraine-assistance-00187897</a>
The Biden administration is planning to rush the last of over $6 billion remaining in Ukraine security assistance out the door by Inauguration Day, as the outgoing team prepares for the weapons flow to end once President-elect Donald Trump takes office.
The plan, described by two administration officials who were granted anonymity to discuss internal matters, is the only option the White House has to keep sending equipment to Ukraine to fight off continued Russian offensives. But the problems are immense. It normally takes months for munitions and equipment to get to Ukraine after an aid package is announced, so anything rolled out in the coming weeks would likely not fully arrive until well into the Trump administration, and the next commander in chief could halt the shipments before they're on the ground.
One big holdup to pushing that aid out the door quickly is that the U.S. can only send equipment already on its shelves. While the money allocated reimburses the Pentagon for that equipment, it is dependent on how fast new artillery shells and weapons can be produced or contracted to replace them.
