Is Wix.com under- or over-valued?

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

Wix.com's PEG ratio

Wix.com's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.09. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Wix.com's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting Wix.com shares

There are currently 2.8 million Wix.com shares held short by investors – that's known as Wix.com's "short interest". This figure is 5.8% up from 2.6 million last month.

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

Wix.com's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Wix.com's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Wix.com shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Wix.com shares traded daily (recently around 1.1 million). Wix.com's SIR currently stands at 2.52. In other words for every 100,000 Wix.com shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2520 shares are currently held short.

However Wix.com's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Wix.com shares, or, against the total number of tradable Wix.com shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Wix.com's short interest could be expressed as 0.05% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Wix.com shares in existence, roughly 50 shares are currently held short) or 0.051% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Wix.com shares, roughly 51 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 Wix.com.

Wix.com share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Wix.com's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$213.12 up to US$361.62. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Wix.com's is 1.3842. This would suggest that Wix.com's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
