On June 2, Palantir Technologies fell 3.07% in pre-market trading, trading at $156.04/share, with trading volume of $22.50 million. The decline comes after the stock surged over 9% in the prior session, marking its best single-day performance in nearly a year and accumulating significant short-term profit-taking pressure.
On the macro front, U.S. April core PCE inflation rose 3.3% year-over-year, exceeding expectations. New Federal Reserve Chair Wosh issued hawkish remarks stating rate cuts are off the table and hikes may be considered, placing broad pressure on high-valuation software names. The Application Software sector saw widespread weakness, with Salesforce down 2.17%, Datadog down 2.0%, Strategy down 2.5%, and AppLovin down 1.09%.
Additionally, company insiders recently sold over $43 million in shares, and Palantir's forward P/E ratio remains elevated at approximately 108x, intensifying valuation concerns and contributing to the pullback magnitude.
