Saia's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIA#NYSE">SAIA</a>) short percent of float has risen 10.04% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.10 million shares sold short, which is 10.08% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<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 Saia 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 Saia'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>, Saia's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.32%, 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>

Saia (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/saia#NASDAQ">SAIA</a>) came out with quarterly earnings of $3.83 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4 per share. This compares to earnings of $3.42 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -4.25%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this trucking company would post earnings of $3.43 per share when it actually produced earnings of $3.38, delivering a surprise of -1.46%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.
Saia, which belongs to the Zacks Transportation - Truck industry, posted revenues of $823.24 million for the quarter ended June 2024, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.20%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $694.62 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock&#39;s immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management&#39;s commentary on the earnings call.
Saia shares have added about 11.6% since the beginning of the year versus the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gain of 13.2%.
What&#39;s Next for Saia?
While Saia has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors&#39; minds is: what&#39;s next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company&#39;s earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Saia: favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company&#39;s just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $4.11 on $839.5 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $15.32 on $3.23 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Transportation - Truck is currently in the bottom 9% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Werner Enterprises (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wern#NASDAQ">WERN</a>), is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2024. The results are expected to be released on July 30.
This transportation company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.23 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -55.8%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 9.2% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.
Werner Enterprises&#39; revenues are expected to be $774.54 million, down 4.5% from the year-ago quarter.

After a turbulent week in the markets, the bulls reclaimed dominance on Wall Street during Friday&#8217;s session, with indices and sectors trading in positive territory as investors welcomed the latest corporate earnings results and further confirmation of inflation progressing toward <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">the Fed&#8217;s 2% target.</a>
In June, the Personal Consumption Expenditure price index – the Fed&#8217;s preferred measure of inflation – dropped to 2.5% year-on-year, as anticipated, marking the lowest level since February 2021. The core component slightly exceeded expectations, remaining <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/07/39987142/feds-favorite-inflation-gauge-keeps-falling-but-fed-wants-durable-downward-trend-economist-says">steady at 2.6% annually.</a>
Investors are unwavering in their expectations for a Fed interest rate cut in September, assigning it a 100% probability and factoring in nearly three cumulative rate cuts by year-end.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average led the charge on Friday, with the blue-chip index surging 1.9%, setting the stage for its strongest session this year. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 rebounded significantly, climbing 1.6%, which halted the tech sector&#8217;s decline but wasn&#8217;t enough to reverse a negative weekly close. 
The Russell 2000, as tracked by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), also posted a solid gain of 1.3%.
Rate-sensitive sectors continued their rally, with homebuilders, as tracked by the SPDR Homebuilders ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XHB#NYSE">XHB</a>), rising over 3% for the day, reaching all-time highs and marking their third <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39988310/homebuilder-stocks-rally-to-record-highs-on-rate-cut-frenzy-but-housing-sales-still-struggle">consecutive positive weekly close.</a>
In the bond market, Treasuries rose as yields dipped slightly, especially in longer-dated maturities.
Gold also rallied, increasing by 1%, while oil prices dropped by 1%. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 2.5%, marking its second consecutive positive session after three negative ones.
