Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Autodesk Stock In The Last 20 Years

Autodesk's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADSK#NYSE">ADSK</a>) short percent of float has fallen 22.97% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.45 million shares sold short, which is 1.14% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.81 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>Autodesk Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1725900310_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Autodesk 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 Autodesk'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>, Autodesk's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.12%, 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>

Wall Street is seeing a relatively timid session, with the major indices displaying a slight negative performance. 
While a timid rebound in semiconductor stocks is taking shape, aided by NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)&#8217;s pause of the sell-off in the previous session, the Dow Jones edged lower after reaching record <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40633329/us-stocks-rally-dow-jones-achieves-record-highs-as-gdp-outperforms-nvidia-falls-whats-driv">highs the day before.</a>
The weak risk sentiment on Friday threatens to end the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100's streak of three consecutive weekly rallies
The AI darling rose by 1% by midday in New York, contributing to the positive momentum in chipmakers, buoyed by strong earnings from Marvell Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) and MongoDB Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDB#NASDAQ">MDB</a>).
On the data front, the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge — the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) Price Index — remained flat in July, breaking a three-month streak of declines.
While the index came in slightly below expectations of an increase, personal spending and income data accelerated more than anticipated, indicating that the positive momentum among U.S. consumers extended into the first month of the current quarter.
The dollar gained 0.3% on the back of the economic data, as traders trimmed expectations on a large 50-basis-point rate cut in September. The greenback&#8217;s strength pressured commodities: gold dropped 0.7%, while oil declined by 2.7%.
The sentiment in the cryptocurrency market remains negative, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) down 2.3%.
