Valuing Exxon Mobil Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Exxon Mobil Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Exxon Mobil Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 61x. In other words, Exxon Mobil Corporation shares trade at around 61x 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.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Exxon Mobil Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
However, it's sensible to consider Exxon Mobil Corporation's PEG ratio in relation to those of similar companies.

In this case Exxon Mobil Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Exxon Mobil Corporation shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0104% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Exxon Mobil Corporation shares, roughly 10 shares are currently held short).
