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 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'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

Stocks with very high price-to-sales ratios, such as SpaceX, Snowflake, Palantir and Trump Media, are worth avoiding because higher price-to-sales has historically led to lower returns. Their annualized ratios are about 64.5, 20, 56.5 and 400. Growth investors are better served by Micron over SpaceX, Salesforce over Trump Media, Nvidia over Palantir and Alphabet over Snowflake. These companies' innovation is impressive, but valuation matters. x.com x.comÂ
