Is CNFinance under- or over-valued?

Valuing CNFinance stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of CNFinance's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

CNFinance's P/E ratio

CNFinance's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 7x. In other words, CNFinance shares trade at around 7x recent earnings.

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

Shorting CNFinance shares

There are currently 2,349 CNFinance shares held short by investors – that's known as CNFinance's "short interest". This figure is 95.9% up from 1,199 last month.

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

CNFinance's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

CNFinance's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of CNFinance shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of CNFinance shares traded daily (recently around 14681.25). CNFinance's SIR currently stands at 0.16. In other words for every 100,000 CNFinance shares traded daily on the market, roughly 160 shares are currently held short.

However CNFinance's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of CNFinance shares, or, against the total number of tradable CNFinance shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case CNFinance's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 CNFinance shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0001% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable CNFinance shares, roughly 0 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 CNFinance.
