Valuing Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 2x. In other words, Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares trade at around 2x 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.

There are currently 48,254 Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares held short by investors – that's known as Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's "short interest". This figure is 185.1% up from 16,926 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares can be evaluated.
Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares traded daily (recently around 45097.196261682). Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's SIR currently stands at 1.07. In other words for every 100,000 Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1070 shares are currently held short.
However Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares, or, against the total number of tradable Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company 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 Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company.

In Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's case, that would currently equate to about $1.7 per share.
Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 11 December 2013. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company shares which in turn could have impacted Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Company's share price.
