Not if it is common mode current, coupled from signal common onto the V- 
wire. Go to my website and study the material on "The Pin One Problem."  
While it is written about audio interconnects, it applies directly here 
to the V- lead.

Shielding only matters with respect to DIFFERENTIAL circuit (that is, 
RFI between V+ and V-).
