Palantir's valuation leaves it vulnerable to a nasty reversal. Its attached metrics show 178.8x trailing earnings, 80.1x trailing sales on an enterprise-value basis, and 110x next-twelve-month earnings. x.com 

Palantir Technologies is exceptional as a business but overpriced at about 90 times forward earnings, so much of its future is already paid for. Revenue is growing 85% with a 60% operating margin, 150% net dollar retention and about $7.7 billion in revenue guided for the year, numbers that are genuinely rare at its size. Being right about the business and wrong about the price is still a loss. x.com 

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.com 

Palantir is overvalued, trading around 100 times forward earnings, 161 times trailing earnings and 73 times sales. x.com 

Palantir is still expensive even after falling about 45% from its highs, so it is a great business but not yet a great stock to add. At its $207 peak it priced in perfection, at roughly 70x 2026 sales and 230x trailing earnings; near $113 it trades at about 38x sales and 127x earnings as the business keeps executing. Interest returns near $100, with more aggressive buying in the $80-90 range or if the stock moves sideways long enough for revenue and earnings to grow into the multiple. x.com 

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.com 

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.com 

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.com 

Palantir is an AI business, not an AI story, and its execution is hard to ignore. Per its Q2 results, revenue rose 93% to $1.94B, beating estimates, and US commercial revenue grew 149%, with Q3 guidance above expectations. Software-sector weakness and a rich valuation weigh on the stock, but it is a very compelling buying opportunity for long-term investors. x.com  x.com 

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.com
