Technical Analysis of DiamondPeak Holdings Corp by TradingView

Is DiamondPeak under- or over-valued?

Valuing DiamondPeak stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of DiamondPeak's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

DiamondPeak's P/E ratio

DiamondPeak's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 347x. In other words, DiamondPeak shares trade at around 347x 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 DiamondPeak shares

There are currently 3.4 million DiamondPeak shares held short by investors – that's known as DiamondPeak's "short interest". This figure is 21.2% up from 2.8 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting DiamondPeak shares can be evaluated.

DiamondPeak's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

DiamondPeak's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of DiamondPeak shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of DiamondPeak shares traded daily (recently around 4.9 million). DiamondPeak's SIR currently stands at 0.68. In other words for every 100,000 DiamondPeak shares traded daily on the market, roughly 680 shares are currently held short.

However DiamondPeak's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of DiamondPeak shares, or, against the total number of tradable DiamondPeak shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case DiamondPeak's short interest could be expressed as 0.1% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 DiamondPeak shares in existence, roughly 100 shares are currently held short) or 0.1478% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable DiamondPeak shares, roughly 148 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 DiamondPeak.
