Is Plains GP Holdings under- or over-valued?

There are currently 4.6 million Plains GP Holdings shares held short by investors – that's known as Plains GP Holdings's "short interest". This figure is 125.7% up from 2.0 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Plains GP Holdings shares can be evaluated.
Plains GP Holdings's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
Plains GP Holdings's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Plains GP Holdings shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Plains GP Holdings shares traded daily (recently around 3.4 million). Plains GP Holdings's SIR currently stands at 1.35. In other words for every 100,000 Plains GP Holdings shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1350 shares are currently held short.
However Plains GP Holdings's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Plains GP Holdings shares, or, against the total number of tradable Plains GP Holdings shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Plains GP Holdings's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Plains GP Holdings shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.025% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Plains GP Holdings shares, roughly 25 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 Plains GP Holdings.
