<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Drove Markets Last Week</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43404983/stocks-trim-deepseek-losses-fed-holds-steady-trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-this-week-in-the-markets">Strong earnings reports proved to be a saving grace</a> for the market in a particularly volatile week ended Jan. 31. According to T. Rowe Price traders, about 40% of S&amp;P 500 firms (by market cap) reported earnings, with strong results from Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43395813/apple-shares-are-on-the-rise-after-q1-earnings">helping stocks rebound</a>. 
Yet, that could not save the S&amp;P 500 from ending the week 1% lower. The Nasdaq Composite suffered a sharp decline on Jan. 27, driven by a sell-off in tech stocks following the emergence of Chinese developer DeepSeek. 
DeepSeek's energy-efficient open-source AI model raised competitive concerns, leading to a near 17% plunge in NVIDIA shares that day. The index ended the week with a 1.6% decline. the Dow Jones Industrial Average managed a modest gain of 0.3%, according to FactSet, marking its third consecutive positive week.
Trade policy also influenced markets, as former President Donald Trump reaffirmed plans for 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada by February 1, along with a 10% levy on Chinese goods.
Coming to monetary policy, at its first 2025 policy meeting, the Federal Reserve held interest rates at 4.25%–4.50%, citing solid economic expansion and a resilient labor market. 
On Friday, the Commerce Department's core PCE inflation report showed a 2.8% year-over-year rise for December, unchanged for three consecutive months. This remains above the Fed's 2% target.
Meanwhile, the U.S. economy grew 2.3% in Q4 and 2.8% for the full year, slightly below forecasts but above the Fed's 1.8% long-run growth projection. Growth was primarily driven by consumer and government spending.
Treasury yields fell as bond prices rose, partly due to easing concerns over DeepSeek's AI disruption, according to T. Rowe Price traders.

ETFs Resilient As Markets Face Volatility: Top 5 ETFs With Best Gains From Last Week Amid Macro Shifts

Hewlett Packard's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) short percent of float has risen 18.07% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 34.00 million shares sold short, which is 2.94% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.1 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 Hewlett Packard has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Hewlett Packard'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>, Hewlett Packard's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.00%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

<h3>About FedEx</h3>
FedEx pioneered overnight delivery in 1973 and remains the world's largest express package provider. In its fiscal 2024, which ended in May, FedEx derived 47% of revenue from its express division, 37% from ground, and 10% from freight, its asset-based less-than-truckload shipping segment.

Looking At JD.com's Recent Unusual Options Activity

A leading domestic steel supplier, Cleveland-Cliffs Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>), published a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43441283/cleveland-cliffs-falls-on-q4-loss-ceo-applauds-trumps-tariffs-for-2025-boost">preliminary report</a> expecting 2024 to be one of the worst years in over a decade. The report characterized 2024 by muted demand from the automotive sector — the company&#8217;s largest customer base — and broader economic headwinds.
"We expect 2025 to be a year of recovery. We have already seen improvements in our order book, both automotive and non-automotive, and are confident that the manufacturing-friendly items on President Trump's agenda will have an outsized benefit on Cleveland-Cliffs," CEO Lourenco Goncalves said.
Still, tariffs have been a double-edged sword for the U.S. steel industry. While they aim to protect domestic manufacturers from foreign competition, they often lead to higher prices for imported and domestic steel. 
Canada and Mexico, the largest suppliers of steel to the U.S., accounted for 35% of all steel imports in 2024, according to the American Iron and Steel Institute. The reimposition of tariffs on these countries has sparked concerns about retaliatory measures and potential supply chain disruptions.
"The issue with tariffs is everybody raises their prices, even the domestics. We're all going to get a price increase," Ralph Hardt, owner of Belleville International, a Pennsylvania-based manufacturer, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/trump-tariffs-mexico-canada-us-steel-market-a36c3b99">said</a> for the Wall Street Journal.
Morgan Stanley's 2025 outlook for the steel sector agrees with those concerns, predicting higher steel prices due to tariffs but tempered by limited demand growth. The firm forecasts a modest 1.6% increase in U.S. steel consumption in 2025, driven by gains in construction and infrastructure projects. However, continued weakness in the automotive sector, which accounts for 19% of steel demand, could offset these gains.
Morgan Stanley also notes the influx of new domestic steel capacity, spurred by earlier tariffs, could lead to oversupply and price pressures in the medium term.
Cleveland-Cliffs&#8217; outlook is mixed. While the company stands to benefit from reduced competition due to tariffs, its financial leverage remains a concern following the Stelco acquisition. In addition, the company has just issued an additional $750 million bond sale to boost its finances.
Citing weaker-than-expected auto demand and stable steel prices as factors that could weigh on free cash flow generation, Morgan Stanley maintains its Equal Weight rating but lowers its price target for Cleveland-Cliffs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CLF/analyst-ratings">from $13 to $11 per share</a>.

One of the biggest NBA trades in league history happened over the weekend with the Dallas Mavericks trading Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, a move that comes around two years after Mark Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/23/12/36402593/mark-cubans-slam-dunk-deal-mavericks-majority-stake-sale-clears-the-net-whats-the-next-play">sold majority control of the Mavericks.</a>
Mavericks fans are upset by the deal and some are recalling a famous quote Cuban once said.
What Happened: Since joining the NBA in 2018, Doncic has been one of the best players in the league, something Cuban acknowledged in a January 2024 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/01/36877701/mark-cuban-wont-buy-your-favorite-sports-team-believes-luka-doncic-hasnt-peaked-yet-plus-more-from">ask me anything.</a>
"Luka is going to get better. He hasn't reached his prime yet. He is amazing," Cuban said at the time.
The answer came in response to a fan's question about whether Cuban felt guilty about wasting Luka's prime, as the Mavericks had only reached the NBA Playoffs in three of Doncic's five full seasons at the time.
While that quote from a year ago about Doncic not yet hitting his prime likely has Mavericks fans upset, it&#8217;s actually a 2020 quote from Cuban, as <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10153214-mark-cuban-says-he-wasnt-part-of-decision-to-trade-luka-as-2020-quote-goes-viral">reported </a>by Bleacher Report.
"If I had to choose between my wife and keeping Luka on the Mavs, catch me at my lawyer's office prepping for a divorce," Cuban said previously.
The quote came from Cuban at a time when he still had majority control of the Mavericks. In 2023, Cuban sold majority control of the NBA team to the Adelson and Dumont families for $3.5 billion, retaining a 27% interest.
Cuban <a href="https://www.wfaa.com/article/sports/nba/mavericks/luka-doncic-trade-dallas-mavericks-owners-general-manager-mark-cuban-nico-harrison/287-4b7f83cd-85af-419f-b593-317856351e1b">confirmed </a>to local media that he was not involved in the Doncic trade negotiations, a move that some fans questioned since the former majority owner previously said he would still be in charge of basketball operations.
It appears that over time, Cuban's role with the team has minimized and based on the latest move, fans might not be happy.
Doncic finished third in NBA MVP voting last season and was the Rookie of the Year for the 2018-2019 season. The NBA star is a five-time All NBA first-team selection, one of only three players to complete this accolade before their 26th birthday, joining Kevin Durant and Tim Duncan.
The Mavericks lost in the NBA Finals last season and made the playoffs in four of their last five seasons.
On the Lakers, Doncic will team up with LeBron James and other players as they look to improve on recent years results. The Lakers won the NBA Championship in the 2020 season, also known as the COVID-impacted season that had different rules and took place inside the "NBA Bubble."
The Lakers have made the playoffs in four of the last five seasons with the 2020 season their only time in the NBA Finals since 2010.

Why It's Important: The NBA blockbuster trade, which also included players Maxi Kleber, Markieff Morris, Max Christie and Jalen Hood-Schifino along with several draft picks and a third team (Utah Jazz), has shocked the NBA world.
Some insiders and analysts are calling it the biggest NBA trade ever, a move that will be looked back upon for years if the Lakers or Mavericks are able to have postseason success following the deal.
The betting odds for the Los Angeles Lakers to win the NBA Championship were cut nearly in half immediately following the trade from +4,000 to +2,100, as <a href="https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/los-angeles-lakers-trade-anthony-davis-luka-doncic-betting-market-reacts">reported </a>by Action Network. The Mavericks odds to win the NBA Championship went the other direction going from +2,000 to +4,000.
At the time of writing, odds at sportsbook DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>) show the Mavericks at +3,500, ranking 11th and the Lakers at +1,800 ranking sixth. The Boston Celtics (+240) and Oklahoma City Thunder (+245) are the betting favorites to win the NBA Championship.
The Lakers rank third in odds to win the Western Conference championship and make the NBA Finals at +950, ranking only behind the Thunder (+115) and Denver Nuggets (+650).
Mavericks General Manager Nico Harrison is believed to be the person who made the deal happen and approached the Lakers about their interest in the superstar.
Harrison cited the support of Mavericks executives and coaches in the trade and said that items like fitness, defense and a looming contract extension may have factored into the deal.
While Harrison may not be a household name to many NBA fans, he is also famous for messing up another blockbuster NBA move. The former Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-active-basketball-news-nico-harrison-mishandled-massive-stephen-curry-deal-that-threw-accusations-of-fraud-on-nike/">employee </a>helped manage some NBA endorsements and pitched Stephen Curry on staying with the Nike brand when his deal was coming up for expiration.
A pitch that included mispronouncing Curry's name and having mentions of Kevin Durant in a recycled pitch deck led to Curry exiting Nike and going with rival Under Armour (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/US#NYSE">US</a>)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAA#NYSE">UAA</a>) instead.
While time will tell how good the trade is for the teams involved, Harrison could go down as failing to keep NBA stars around at both Nike and the Dallas Mavericks.

<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.
