Is T-Mobile US under- or over-valued?

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.

In this case T-Mobile US's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 T-Mobile US shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0363% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable T-Mobile US 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 T-Mobile US.
