$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ based on Peter Thiel's history, holding on to a stock he sells out of early could be very lucrative. Back in August of 2004 he was the first outside investor in Facbook. He invested $500,000 for a 10.2% stake that valued the company at $4.9 billion. He sold most of that investment in 2012 when Facebook went public and received slightly more than $1 billion for his shares. If he held onto that original investment it would be worth multiple of billions more, maybe PLTR will do the same. He left an enormous fortune on the table but its not easy to feel sorry for him, he's still worth around $10 billion.
