Is GS Acquisition under- or over-valued?
Valuing GS Acquisition stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of GS Acquisition's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
GS Acquisition's P/E ratio
GS Acquisition's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 202x. In other words, GS Acquisition shares trade at around 202x recent earnings.
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.

Shorting GS Acquisition shares
There are currently 722,064 GS Acquisition shares held short by investors – that's known as GS Acquisition's "short interest". This figure is 31.8% down from 1.1 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting GS Acquisition shares can be evaluated.
GS Acquisition's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
GS Acquisition's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of GS Acquisition shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of GS Acquisition shares traded daily (recently around 2.9 million). GS Acquisition's SIR currently stands at 0.25. In other words for every 100,000 GS Acquisition shares traded daily on the market, roughly 250 shares are currently held short.
However GS Acquisition's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of GS Acquisition shares, or, against the total number of tradable GS Acquisition shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case GS Acquisition's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 GS Acquisition shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable GS Acquisition 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 GS Acquisition.
