Palantir has an unusually strong backer: President Trump posted about Palantir by name and ticker, calling its warfighting capabilities proven, per @StockSavvyShay. A sitting president rarely references an individual stock so directly, and calling it crucial technology makes a bearish stance hard to justify. x.comÂ
Palantir already shows companies returns on AI as they shift from testing it to demanding results. JPMorgan's $262 target is about 32% above the current price; the multi-model signal is Long, with three of four models agreeing ahead of Monday's earnings. x.comÂ
Palantir's roughly $500B market cap and 80x sales make it prudent to trim exposure despite continued affection for the company. Its tenfold run has already delivered substantial gains, not just the beginning; smaller speculative positions are getting crushed in this environment. x.com x.comÂ
Palantir is primed for a massive bounce, holding just above a solid $122-$128 demand zone as sellers run out of steam and pullback volume dries up. If it holds the $130-$132 area, the next leg targets the $145+ supply zone, and clearing that could make the move explosive, following Intel and Dell. x.comÂ
Continued improvement in fundamentals and technicals could carry Palantir to megacap scale. A $1 trillion market cap is a realistic destination for strong growth companies, and Palantir appears on that path, though its timing is uncertain. Drawdowns remain opportunities to accumulate until the thesis changes. x.comÂ
Palantir's share price demands unusually fast cash and profit growth despite its strong business. At roughly $210, it implies 48.5% annual growth for five years; at 32% annual growth, the shares would be worth $96.64. It is a Watch, not a Buy at today's prices. Q2 sales rose 93% and cash flow after employee stock pay was $2.52 billion over 12 months, but government concentration, cancellable contracts and rising stock pay remain risks. x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
Palantir, Intel, CrowdStrike, AST SpaceMobile and CoreWeave, presented as stocks Donald Trump owns, each have 10x potential and could create generational wealth this year. x.com x.comÂ
Palantir's government contract activity is growing sharply, supporting its resilience despite the share-price pullback. Its $2.1 billion in 12-month obligations is up 184% from the prior year, among the strongest increases tracked. The Cryptic Bottom Index remains green despite the pullback. Its score is among the highest in the Cryptic Research System, led by growth and profitability, though catalysts and valuation score weakest. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Palantir looks stretched again, back at about 69 times sales. Michael Burry added March 2027 Palantir puts after covering half his shorts near $107. A further run to $187-$198 would be the better level to lean bearish, and with software stocks running hot for two weeks, the whole trade may top out for a breather. x.com x.comÂ
Palantir proves it is the AI layer for enterprises and governments, while ServiceNow mostly talks about it, with growth stuck around 20%. ServiceNow added $680M of revenue in Q1 versus Palantir's $580M despite being 3x bigger, a gap between its AI narrative and actual growth. ServiceNow is a good company and probably too beaten down. To the argument that Palantir's 70x sales needs acceleration while ServiceNow's 6.7x does not: valuation depends on the business, and Palantir's is the better one. … Show more
