Is Ternium S-A under- or over-valued?

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 a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Ternium S-A shares can be evaluated.

Ternium S-A's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Ternium S-A's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Ternium S-A shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Ternium S-A shares traded daily (recently around 722914.69387755). Ternium S-A's SIR currently stands at 2.45. In other words for every 100,000 Ternium S-A shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2450 shares are currently held short.

However Ternium S-A's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Ternium S-A shares, or, against the total number of tradable Ternium S-A shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Ternium S-A's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Ternium S-A shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0362% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Ternium S-A shares, roughly 36 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 Ternium S-A.
