<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?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">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.

What's Driving the Market Sentiment Around Medical Properties Trust?

Dividend stocks are gaining attention as investors crave certainty and downsize protection following market volatility triggered by President Donald Trump's tariff announcement on April 2. Dividend stocks have proven their resilience in the past. The S&amp;P 500 High Dividend Index outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in the dot-com bubble and COVID-19 market crash, according to an <a href="https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/documents/education/education-the-importance-of-dividends.pdf">S&amp;P Global</a> research report.
Earlier this month, a dividend investor <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/dividends/comments/1jqucki/account_update_6000month/">shared</a> his portfolio and income details on r/Dividends — a Reddit discussion board with over 700,000 followers. The portfolio screenshots shared by the investor on the social platform showed his monthly dividend income stood at $6,027.

The investor said he had been waiting to buy stocks on a pullback, and his chance finally came following the recent market selloff.
"What a bloody day today but it did hit the price target I have been waiting for. Now that I reached $6,000, now I am going to use this money to start buying more VOO and discounted tech stocks like Google, Amazon Microsoft, Broadcom, etc."
The investor said dividend investing is not a "get rich quick" scheme and it took him 20 years to reach this income milestone. He urged investors to "keep grinding until we don't have to."
"As long as you are consistent with your investment, you will also get there," he added.
