Palantir TechnologiesPLTRRISKYMay 29, 2026Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of May 29, 2026. Market Open.
The only software name he owns. Beaten down because it's put in the software bucket, plus relatively expensive compared to peers. Sometimes you have to pay up for a best-in-class asset. Last quarter's numbers blew it out of the water. Growing 80% YOY, very profitable.
Accelerating commercial revenue on top of government contracts. Helping companies adopt AI.
Only drawback is that the stock's very expensive. So there's no good valuation support, and she doesn't own it.
But nothing really wrong with the story, so she wouldn't recommend a Sell. If you liked it a month ago, nothing has changed. Pretty well positioned on defense. Fundamentals are in favour of it, so she'd hold.
For these high-beta stocks, you can't be getting nervous about them. If you don't want to stomach the high volatility, look for a more diversified solution or for a stock that's less volatile.
Executing well. Increasingly employing AI in day-to-day operations. Growing use in government/defense plus strong adoption by commercial customers.
Proving it can turn demand into profit and cashflow. Revenue grew an exceptional 85% last quarter. Valuation remains her biggest concern (roughly 40x next year's sales), leaving little room for disappointment/error. Be cautious.
