Toyota Motor's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) short percent of float has risen 40.0% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 881 thousand shares sold short, which is 0.07% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.73 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>Toyota Motor Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737058510_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Toyota Motor 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 Toyota Motor'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>, Toyota Motor's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.17%, 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 Toyota Motor's Recent Short Interest

Hino Motors, a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), has reached a settlement with the U.S. Justice Department and other federal agencies<a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/hino-motors-toyota-subsidiary-agrees-plead-guilty-and-pay-over-16b-resolve-emissions-fraud"> regarding emissions testing fraud</a>. 
The company has agreed to pay over $1.6 billion to resolve allegations of fraudulent engine emissions testing and illegal engine imports. 
The agreement addresses violations that allowed the company to improperly import over 110,000 diesel engines into the U.S. between 2010 and 2022. 
The settlement includes both criminal and civil resolutions, with Hino Motors pleading guilty to criminal conspiracy charges.
The arrangement, which is still subject to approval by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, also involves Hino's agreement to pay penalties and implement a series of corrective measures. 
According to the Justice Department, the company falsified engine certification data to bypass regulatory requirements, resulting in harmful air pollution. 
The agencies involved include Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), FBI, Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Department of Transportation's Office of Inspector General (DOT-OIG), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and State of California.
The settlement includes a $521.76 million criminal fine, along with a $525 million civil penalty for Hino. In addition, the company must contribute $155 million to a mitigation program aimed at addressing the excess emissions resulting from the violations.
This initiative will replace older, less efficient marine and locomotive engines across 49 states, reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by over 41,000 tons. 
These efforts are expected to have the same impact as removing 110,000 heavy-duty trucks from U.S. highways.
Hino's actions between 2010 and 2019, including manipulating emissions data, caused significant environmental harm.
Additionally, a recall program will ensure that non-compliant engines from 2017-2019 meet regulatory standards.
Price Action: TM shares are trading lower by 1.42% at $182.22 in premarket at last check Thursday.

Shares of auto companies are trading lower amid overall market weakness due to a rise in yields.

JPMorgan shifted gears on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mobility">air mobility stocks</a> Archer Aviation Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACHR#NYSE">ACHR</a>) and Joby Aviation Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JOBY#NYSE">JOBY</a>), downgrading them despite strong sector enthusiasm.
Analyst Bill Peterson adjusted Archer Aviation stock to a Neutral rating and Joby Aviation stock to Underweight, noting their significant market gains surged past what fundamentals justify.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Market Enthusiasm Outpaces Fundamentals</h1>
Peterson highlighted that Archer and Joby have outperformed the Clean Tech sector, gaining 145% and 86%, respectively, over the past six months. This rise correlates with speculative inflows and market movements aligned with Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rocket Lab USA Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>). &#8220;These companies are trading as if regulatory hurdles have already been cleared,&#8221; Peterson stated, warning that elevated valuations could retreat as regulatory challenges persist.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Certification Challenges Continue</h1>
Despite potential regulatory possibly easing under the upcoming Trump administration, ongoing safety testing and certification remain hurdles. Peterson sees <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42464770/whats-going-on-with-archer-aviation-stock-today">Archer&#8217;s partnership with defense tech company Anduril</a> as promising but believes its immediate valuation upside is capped.
He assigned a $9 price target, reflecting incremental earnings potential from its defense ventures.
Similarly, while Joby&#8217;s leadership in for-credit testing and partnerships,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42169194/joby-gets-toyotas-500m-dollar-lift-evtol-pioneer-making-new-highs"> such as with </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42169194/joby-gets-toyotas-500m-dollar-lift-evtol-pioneer-making-new-highs">Toyota Motor Corp</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), indicate future growth, Peterson remains cautious.
The raised price target of $6 still implies downside risk due to certification uncertainties and market volatility.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Balancing Growth Potential, Risks</h1>
Peterson anticipates potential capital raises to fund commercialization efforts for both companies. 
&#8220;Investors must tread carefully,&#8221; he warned, suggesting that high short interest could lead to rapid price declines despite operational progress. 
As Archer and Joby push toward commercialization, the analyst sees significant long-term potential but remains wary of near-term risks tied to market enthusiasm outpacing operational milestones.

The development marks the Japanese chipmaker&#8217;s efforts to emulate key contract chipmaker Taiwan&nbsp;Semiconductor Manufacturing Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) strategy, which catapulted it into the trillion-dollar market cap, Nikkei Asia <a target="_blank" href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Tech/Semiconductors/Rapidus-aims-to-supply-cutting-edge-2-nm-chip-samples-to-Broadcom" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

Lately, countries including the U.S., Europe, Japan, and others have focused on consolidating their semiconductor base to reduce dependence on China after the 2020 pandemic disrupted global supply chains, triggering a severe semiconductor chip crisis.
Over the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39926002/after-donald-trumps-recent-taiwan-statement-sent-shockwaves-japans-pm-kishida-reveals-new-bill-to-bo" rel="noreferrer noopener">past three years</a>, Japan committed ~¥4 trillion ($26 billion) to boost its semiconductor sectors. Up to ¥920 billion of the subsidy went to Rapidus to help produce advanced chips.
Taiwan Semiconductor already has a 2-nm wafer plant in Baoshan, Hsinchu County, scheduled for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42721526/taiwan-semiconductors-kaohsiung-expansion-to-boost-jobs-and-2-nm-chip-production" rel="noreferrer noopener">mass production in 2025</a>.

The price target reflects a 20 times 2026E FCF multiple, which Post deems reasonable versus the FANG average of 28 times, given Uber&#8217;s strong 2026E EBITDA growth outlook of 28% versus the FANG average of 17%.
The collaboration is focusing on supporting the development of AI-powered autonomous driving (AVs), pairing Uber&#8217;s dataset of millions of daily trips with Nvidia&#8217;s new Cosmos platform (first announced at CES) and Nvidia DGX Cloud.
Cosmos is Nvidia&#8217;s new generative AI platform. It focuses on &#8220;physical AI systems,&#8221; creating synthetic environments and eliminating cost barriers to developing advanced robotics.

Nvidia DGX Cloud offers a fully managed AI platform preconfigured with advanced Nvidia architecture and software on &#8220;an open platform&#8221; for AI model development across multi-cloud environments.
Uber will likely commit significant resources, given the importance of this strategy to the business.
Nvidia chief Jensen Huang noted at CES that Cosmos is the world&#8217;s first foundational model tailored explicitly for &#8220;Physical AI.&#8221; He said autonomous vehicles will be the first multi-trillion-dollar robotics industry. He announced a partnership with Toyota, with Toyota&#8217;s next-gen vehicles using Nvidia&#8217;s Drive AGX Orin supercomputers and operating system DriveOS for real-time AI processing and integration of advanced driving and cockpit features. 
He also announced a next-gen chip tailored for AVs called &#8220;Drive Thor,&#8221; an advancement from its prior &#8220;Drive Orin&#8221; chip, enabling auto OEMs to more efficiently consolidate multiple functions in a single system, reducing overall system cost.
The variety of AV partnerships and products announced at CES underscores Post&#8217;s thesis that multiple auto OEMs will integrate Level 4 self-driving technology long term, providing Uber with multiple available partners in AV ridesharing, including Uber, Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Aurora Innovation, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AUR#NASDAQ">AUR</a>) with its self-driving trucks, and automotive supplier Continental. With numerous new AV competitors — Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (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>) Waymo, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Amazon.com Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox — Post noted auto OEMs will increasingly focus on integrating Level 4 autonomy.
For Uber, providing data and ride imaging/video in an increasingly open-sourced manner could help auto OEMs reach Level 4 more quickly and effectively reduce the likelihood of a &#8220;Walled Garden&#8221; outcome for only one OEM. Uber&#8217;s data could also have an advantage in addressing the ridesharing use case, with higher-quality data on the most essential trips and routes for ride-hailing. 
Uber is one of Post&#8217;s top picks for 2025.
UBER Price Action: Uber stock is down by 2.72% at $64.35 at publication Wednesday.

Uber, Nvidia Partnership To Unlock Value By Leveraging AI To Advance Ridesharing, Autonomous Tech: Analyst

Automaker Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) made its presence at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42775636/ces-2025-preview-nvidia-amd-in-spotlight-other-trends-and-stocks-to-watch">2025 CES conference</a> felt announcing new plans for the space sector and an update on its city for inventors.
From Cars to Rockets: Toyota might be following in the footsteps of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk by also getting into the space sector, which was one of the hottest areas for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/01/42828631/exclusive-rocket-lab-intuitive-machines-redwire-or-ast-spacemobile-33-of-readers-pick-this-space-stock-for-2025"> investors in 2024.</a>
Toyota chairman Akio Toyoda said the company is looking to the space sector as one of its examples of "invention by multiplication," while speaking at CES.
"When it comes to what's possible when you work together, the sky's the limit. And speaking of the sky, we're exploring rockets, too," Toyoda said, as <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/06/toyota-is-exploring-rockets-made-first-investment-interstellar-technologies/">reported </a>by TechCrunch.
While Toyota's interest in space and rockets could put the company head-to-head with Musk and SpaceX, Toyoda may have amplified the future battle with a comment.
"The future of mobility shouldn't be limited to just Earth, or just one car company."
Toyota's presentation included a rendering of a rocket designed by Japanese spaceflight company Interstellar Technologies.
The Toyota chairman said the company is working with Interstellar Technologies on telecommunications to support its prototype Woven City in Japan.
Toyota confirmed to TechCrunch that Woven by Toyota invested around $44.3 million in Interstellar Technologies. Woven by Toyota is the company's mobility subsidiary working on items such as automated driving, vehicle operating systems and Woven City.
While Toyota didn't provide many details on its space ambitions, a tease of a rocket, announcing an investment in a spaceflight company and more could signal the company's desire to grow in this segment for the future.
Toyota is a competitor with Tesla as one of the largest automakers by production annually. Toyota has focused more on hybrid vehicles than battery electric vehicles in recent years.
While Toyota is a competitor to Tesla, the launch of a space division or heavier investment in the sector would also put the company in direct competition with SpaceX. While Tesla and SpaceX are separate companies, they are both led by Musk and this could create quite the battle against the world's richest man.

Woven City Takes Shape: Toyota <a href="https://woven.toyota/en/our-latest/20250107-01">shared </a>its plan for Woven City back at CES 2020 and now the launch is set for this year.
Located in Japan, Woven City is called a city for inventors and will serve as a test course for mobility for Toyota and other partner companies.
"Woven City is a test course for mobility where ‘inventors' who share a commitment for working ‘for someone other than themselves' can develop, test and validate innovative products and services," the company said.
The list of partners includes some Toyota Group companies, external companies, startups and individual entrepreneurs. Partners include Daikin Industries, UCC Japan and Nissin Food Products.
Construction for Phase 1 buildings was completed in October 2024 with the official launch coming later this year. Site preparation work is also underway for Phase 2.
Around 100 residents, primarily Toyota Group staff and their families, will be part of Phase 1's initial launch with a total of 360 residents expected in the entire Phase 1 wave. Phase 2 and other phases will take Woven City to a population of around 2,000 inventors.
In the future, co-creation activities and visitors will also be welcomed to Woven City to visit and participate.
Woven City is part of Woven by Toyota's plan to expand mobility "from land, sea, and air to space."
The company has invested billions of dollars into the concept with the hope that combining inventors and providing the tools could help unlock autonomous vehicle technology on a built-in test course and also bring in inventions in the areas of AI, energy, space and more, as <a href="https://insideevs.com/news/746348/toyota-woven-city-ces/">reported </a>by InsideEVs.
Woven City members will need residence status in Japan to live there for one to two years, the company said. Applications and scholarships will open later this year for potential residency in Woven City.
While new technologies that generate revenue for Toyota could come out of Woven City, Toyota shareholders might not like the chairman's overall vision.
"At Woven City, we are trying to have a project that will never be completed," Toyoda told media at CES. "That's because we are trying to create the future. The purpose of this project is not to make money."

Insights From Analysts:
WisdomTree and Wharton School economist Jeremy Siegel underscored that one of the reasons for the tentative markets is uncertainty surrounding President-elect Donald Trump's economic policies.
"The market expects immediate action on tariffs, though implementation will take months. Regulatory skepticism for big tech persists, raising questions about the growth potential in this key sector," he said.
Siegel also observed the reliance of markets on AI and tech stocks, noting that the signs of market rotation to other sectors are "still notably absent."
"I could see a market correction in the broad market and a bear market in the Nasdaq if our long-waited market rotation occurs, but the catalyst for this rotation has yet to arrive."
Analysts at the BlackRock Investment Institute <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/insights/blackrock-investment-institute/weekly-commentary">echoed</a> similar sentiments while noting that this overreliance on AI and tech stocks could be causing some jitters in the markets.
"Our overweight is grounded in the artificial intelligence (AI) theme, robust economic growth and broadening earnings growth. Soaring tech valuations and the concentration of returns in just a few tech companies caused some market jitters."
Despite this, they observed that this is a feature, not a flaw.
