Following the spinoff of its contract logistics division (GXO) in 2021 and freight brokerage operations (RXO) in 2022, XPO is moving closer to becoming a pure-play asset-based less-than-truckload carrier. On a pro forma basis for the RXO spinoff, We estimate LTL shipping now makes up 60% of total revenue, with XPO's European truckload and LTL operations making up 40%. However, XPO's LTL segment EBITDA mix is much higher than 60%. We believe XPO intends to divest its European trucking division once it finds the right buyer.

XPO's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPO#NYSE">XPO</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.36% since its last report.

<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 XPO 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 XPO'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>, XPO's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.66%, which means the company has more 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>

XPO Provides North American LTL Operating Data For November 2024; LTL Tonnage Per Day Decreased 4.0%, As Compared With November 2023, Attributable To A YoY Decrease Of 4.2% In Shipments Per Day And An Increase Of 0.2% In Weight Per Shipment

President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s move to impose 25% tariffs on Canada can thwart the growth of the stock markets and affect corporate profits, inflation, transportation and oil marketing companies.
What Happened: This comes as Goldman Sachs head of commodities research, Daan Struyven told <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-27/goldman-sees-significant-hit-to-us-from-trump-s-canada-tariffs">Bloomberg </a>that &#8220;The 25% levy on all products from Canada proposed by Trump would likely raise the price of fuels in the U.S.&#8221;
&#8220;He said that tariffs could significantly affect U.S. consumers, U.S. refiners, and Canadian producers," on Wednesday. In order for American producers to export more of their own oil, the U.S. imports almost 4 million barrels of Canadian crude a day. Struyven added that this could be a &#8220;negotiating tool.&#8221;
"Given the focus from Trump to lower energy costs, we think Canada tariffs are somewhat unlikely,&#8221; he added
U.S. and Canada along with Mexico signed the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement as an update to North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA in 2020. It allowed for mostly duty-free trade between the three countries. Trump&#8217;s threat of tariffs would seem to violate the terms.

Why It Matters: As higher Canadian tariffs could raise the domestic fuel prices in the U.S., it will impact the corporate profits of many companies and increase both, consumer and producer price inflation.
The input costs of transportation and oil marketing companies can increase, which may lower their profits and stock prices. Also, investors may want to short the stocks of these companies when oil prices are high.
A few of the many transportation companies that would get affected by this include, Union Pacific Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNP#NYSE">UNP</a>), CSX Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>), Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), Old Dominion Freight Line Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ODFL#NASDAQ">ODFL</a>), TFI International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TFII#NYSE">TFII</a>), Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KNX#NYSE">KNX</a>), XPO Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPO#NYSE">XPO</a>) and Alaska Air Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>).
Similarly, companies like Chevron Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), BP plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>), TotalEnergies SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTE#NYSE">TTE</a>), Shell PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHEL#NYSE">SHEL</a>), Enbridge Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENB#NYSE">ENB</a>), and ConocoPhillips (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COP#NYSE">COP</a>) are a few oil marketing companies that my bear the direct brunt of this.

Trump's Tariff Threat To Canada May Disrupt Oil Markets, Inflate Prices: 'Would Likely Raise The Price Of Fuels,' Says Analyst

XPO's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPO#NYSE">XPO</a>) short percent of float has risen 28.32% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.76 million shares sold short, which is 6.66% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.78 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 XPO 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 XPO'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>, XPO's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.01%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
