Gilbert (Gil) Ray Cisneros (D-Calif.), it's the committee assignment drawing attention to a new disclosure.\n        • Palantir Technologies stock is showing upward bias. Where is PLTR stock headed?\nCisneros disclosed buying shares of Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) in a recent filing made on Dec. 15, as tracked by the Benzinga Government Trades page.\nThe congressman disclosed buying $1,000 to $15,000 of Palantir shares on Nov. 7 and $1,000 to $15,000 of Palantir shares on Nov. 18. The transactions were part of a filing that included more than 50 trades, including some sales and purchases of well-known companies such as members of the Magnificent Seven.\nCisneros' purchase of Palantir is drawing attention on social media thanks to the congressman's committee assignment: he is part of the House Armed Services Committee.\n\"The House Committee on Armed Services is responsible for funding and oversight of the Department of Defense, the United States Armed Forces, and portions of the Department of Energy,\" a description for the committee reads.\nBeing a member of this committee could create a conflict of interest for the congressman, with Palantir often landing government contracts.\nIn fact, Palantir recently announced a new partnership with the U.S. Navy in December on a new initiative called ShipOS, with up to $448 million approved.\nCisneros latest disclosure also included buying $1,000 to $15,000 in shares of Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:LMT), a defense company that could also draw interest given his committee assignment.\nDid You Know?\nShares of Palantir are up over 135% year-to-date in 2025 as one of the top-performing S&P 500 stocks for the year.\nThe congressman has bought Palantir shares multiple times in 2025, with the following trades made:\nWith shares currently trading at $177.29, Cisneros is up significantly on his purchases made in January and March, while his later purchases during the year are likely up a little bit.\nOther trades made in Palantir stock by members of Congress have also drawn interest from traders with Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) buying shares and belonging to a Homeland Security subcommittee, and Lisa McClain (R-Mich.) filing trades including Palantir late and past the 45-day deadline.\nPalantir will continue to be one of the most followed stocks for trading disclosures from members of Congress, given its large amount of government contracts moving forward.\nRead Next: \nPhoto: Shutterstock","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"shareholding","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.35.12","shortVersion":"4.35.12","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2592944153","isCrawlerRequest":true}
