Is Cable One under- or over-valued?

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Cable One's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Cable One shares can be evaluated.

Cable One's SIR currently stands at 4.67. In other words for every 100,000 Cable One shares traded daily on the market, roughly 4670 shares are currently held short.

However Cable One's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Cable One shares, or, against the total number of tradable Cable One shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Cable One's short interest could be expressed as 0.04% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Cable One shares in existence, roughly 40 shares are currently held short) or 0.0669% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Cable One shares, roughly 67 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Cable One.
