should take note. ","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Palantir's Double Click event was not aimed at investors, but the street should take note. After a somewhat banal demo day in January, this was a serious tour de force.</li>\n <li>Palantir demonstrated how Foundry can have a transformative impact in two entirely different industries. This included interesting granular details.</li>\n <li>Palantir has a massive head start in an entirely new class of 'data OS' software. The entry of new competitors is a sign that demand is rising rapidly.</li>\n <li>Splunk's CTO resigned the next day. Coincidence?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Last week Palantir(NYSE:PLTR)held the first of what is to be a series of demo events dubbed \"Double Click\". Streaming to an audience of just 3.4k, this event was not aimed at investors and street analysts. It was instead a deep dive aimed at management teams and policymakers assessing potential Palantir deployments. In this article, we will summarize this event, discuss its implications, and contextualize Palantir's leading position in what is now one of the hottest areas of enterprise software.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>Today we're building on our inaugural demo day back in January. That event brought exceptional interest in our platform from around the globe, but in particular incredible demand in the US where we just almost can't keep up....Our two platforms, Gotham and Foundry - They're operating systems for the modern enterprise. Gotham provides an end-to-end solution, from space to mud, that integrates every single sensor, every single shooter, for US and Allied defense around the world. It is a single platform that helps you understand decide and act.Foundry is by analogy that same operating system for the enterprise. It helps you understand, decide, and act. It isn't just about analytics. It's about decisions. About making better decisions.It's not just about being more efficient. It's about winning. Winning by generating sustainable alpha by outlearning the competition, and only foundry can do this. It is a completely unique offering.-Shyam Sankar, Palantir COO</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Sankar also detailed the critical role that Palantir's software has played in the UK's pandemic response. The NHS has used Palantir's Foundry to manage the distribution of 7.5B PPE items. The NHS has gone on to use Palantir to manage the distribution of 33M+ vaccines, hundreds of SKUs of related supplies, across 2,500 vaccination sites. All of this incorporates Palantir's privacy protections, annealing theUK's strict data privacy regulations.</p>\n<p>Far from being some sort of log aggregator or data visualization tool, this demo illustrated how powerful Palantir's software, specifically Foundry, truly is. Whereas Palantirpreviously coveredthe more mundane and granular details of data integration and technical aspects of Palantir Apollo back in January, this was an exciting walkthrough of use-cases and applications.</p>\n<p>It's difficult to understate exactly how good it was. It was a serious tour de force. Expect analysts covering Palantir to take note. We've come a long way from a time when CNBC wasspeculating that Palantir might be some sort of 'consulting services' company.</p>\n<p>Life Sciences</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92bbaacbc77cbdeb3f0f7247cdca929b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>(Image source: Palantir)</i></p>\n<p>The first of two industries covered, Palantir made the case for Foundry's role in health sciences to be expanded beyond its current use in managing sensitive data surrounding the pandemic. Palantir covered how the same tools could accelerate clinical research, by demonstrating how sensitive health data could be analyzed in a way that complies with understandably strict regulations.</p>\n<p>The demo walked through the development of a hypothetical prognostic model for lung cancer, starting with data governance. Where Facebook(NASDAQ:FB)and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL)have sought to simplyseize healthcare data in a clandestine format(the same way Google posted pictures of everyone's house online without their permission and used scale to make it seem normal), Palantir has built a platform that empowers data owners to work with researchers. They're in control.</p>\n<p>On top of arobust suite of anonymization techniques, data governance teams have complete transparency into who has access to what data and why. This team assesses the researcher's request for data and makes sure that the access given is appropriate. This can be programmed to meet the desired data governance protocols.</p>\n<p>Once a researcher has access to the relevant data, they must develop a prognostic model. Foundry enables this process to be drastically accelerated in several ways:</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>...Every study starts with protocol writing and feasibility testing in order to identify a cohort of patients that is both medically relevant and large enough for statistical analysis. Foundry's cohorting app shortens this process by bringing medical experts data owners and biostatisticians to acommon interface, and building a library of reusable criteria......I can easily adjust the criteria to expand the population without needing to cycle through various data experts to check counts. Traditionally updating inclusion criteria can often take a week or more,meaning months can go by before analysis begins.Next, I need to filter to patients with lung cancer. Instead of spending weeks compiling the necessary code sets and logic to define this disease state, I can search our phenotype library and pull from the experience of other experts.-Benjamin Amor, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Analysis work can be done in multiple environments seamlessly, including R, Python, and SQL. These are directly integrated into Foundry. This enables Foundry to leverage the massive open source support for R, which has grown tonearly 17,500 different packages. Think of R packages like little software kits/apps for data scientists.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8357e4bfde07d67f405f41dbd6371681\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"356\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>(Image Source: Palantir)</i></p>\n<p>This capability combines with cloud computing, giving data scientists the ability to offload computationally intensive workloads to high-performance computing centers. At the flick of a finger, a data scientist can spool up the massive computing power needed to analyze a large set of medical imaging data. As GPUs and other types of acceleration hardware become more powerful, the number of possibilities and speed at which they can be analyzed will continue to increase.</p>\n<p>Most importantly, the information gained from this analysis can be shared with the entire team<b>without actually having to share access to sensitive data.</b>Making all of this possible is the quick unification of data from disparate sources, many different organizations with highly variable and idiosyncratic data architectures. Foundry can not only protect sensitive data, but it can cut the time needed to standardize such data from years to weeks.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>The science is really accelerated, because instead of every time reinventing the wheel, you pick the parts off the shelf that you need to use. You modify them as you want, but they're reusable so we don't have to keep designing it each time.Lots of people have large data sets, but if you make them into knowledge, or you make them usable to create knowledge, that's the secret sauce. That's what Palantir gives us. That ease of use.-Ken Gersing M.D., NCATS Director of Informatics</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>The implementation of Foundry as an organizational 'data OS' continues to build value over time, acting as a repository for information that can be leveraged later. Past research that had previously uninteresting results might accelerate future research. Palantir refers to this as the creation of \"knowledge objects\", all fully traceable back to the raw data that was used to produce them.</p>\n<p><b>Industrials</b></p>\n<p>The second half of the presentation highlighted industrial applications, the most impressive of which centered around managing complex supply chains. A Palantir engineer explained how the company has worked closely with customers to integrate their needs directly into Foundry.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>We've spent years working on these problems. We've actually been able to bake these hard-earned learnings back into the platform. So, now you can apply these to a specific customer's context in a matter of weeks.So, part of this is what we call software defined data integrations. Basically taking what used to take months or even years of painful manual work, and you need specialist knowledge of the underlying data sources, and actually just replacing that with a few clicks-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>In other words, Palantir can take an insurmountable patchwork of aging ERP and CRM infrastructure and quickly integrate it into a usable platform. It can even combine this with granular data from IoT sensors. This can all be done at petabyte scale, and be up and running in a matter of days or weeks, without the need to build a new system from the ground up.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a562191824ecc2b9367c475408e7ff8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"335\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>(Image sources: Palantir)</i></p>\n<p>This enables companies to better manage complex supply chains, track quality control, optimize production, respond to disruptions, and scan for potential problems or weaknesses. Foundry makes this all seem so easy and intuitive because it converts impossible levels of complexity into manageable data assets. A nontechnical user can be up and running quickly.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>Previously it would have been impossible to respond with this level of understanding. But what's actually even more exciting here is that instead of manually comparing a few scenarios, I can actually choose the exact set of decisions that will optimize for the factors I care about most, which of course will change depending on the current circumstances.So while this might look simple, behind the scenes Foundry is comparing potentially thousands of possible scenarios to help this logistics manager make a final decision on the best outcome... keeping business running smoothly and customers on the move.Once I'm able to fully understand and react to today's challenges, the change models underpinning the supply chain critically allow simulation of future events to rebalance trade-offs effectively. So starting to shift from reaction to anticipation of the global supply chain.-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Managers can then take things a step further, and actually analyze hypothetical future scenarios. The granularity and accuracy of such simulations will only increase as new communications technologies (such as 5G) bring new levels of connectivity to IoT sensors and nodes.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>Supply chain and logistics managers were previously forced to make these incredibly complex trade-offs with only a narrow view of the available context. But now with the supply chain archetype, we can not only gain an accurate and granular view of today's risks, but can also simulate future scenarios and make adjustments to make sure ournetwork is ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.So just to give you an idea of the speed and impact of the archetype, one of our industrial customers had an incredibly complex supply chain landscape with dozens of data sources, including 27 separate ERPs.With foundry, in hours they had their first integrated view of the supply chain. Within two days they were already proactively alerting on potential bottlenecks, and in just two weeks had identified around $50 million in working capital while simultaneously improving the robustness of the supply chain to react to future shocks.-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>To an IT executive, this probably sounds more like a miracle than a case study. The presentation on industrials also focused on a few other use-cases, but the supply chain analysis was by far the most impressive.</p>\n<p>Deep roots are not reached by the frost</p>\n<p>The fact that a presentation that might have ignited investor interest in the stock and sent it skyrocketing wasn't promoted to investors at all tells you something very important. Demand for the type of 'data OS' that Palantir provides is heating up, and Palantir is now focused on marketing to potential customers in a very active way.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>This holy grail of making data actionable by tying it into the critical business systems that power a company - turning the data warehouse into a \"central nervous system\" for the business - is what's driving incredible growth at some of the most important startups in Silicon Valley, including Canva, Drizly, Figma, Notion, Loom, Clearbit, and many more.-David Ulevitch, Andreessen Horowitz</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>This is evident by the fact that there has been a rush of VC capital into startup competitors. EvenNvidia(NASDAQ:NVDA) is scrambling to get in on the action.

After a somewhat banal demo day in January, this was a serious tour de force.\nPalantir demonstrated how Foundry can have a transformative impact in two entirely different industries. This included interesting granular details.\nPalantir has a massive head start in an entirely new class of 'data OS' software. The entry of new competitors is a sign that demand is rising rapidly.\nSplunk's CTO resigned the next day. Coincidence?\n\nLast week Palantir(NYSE:PLTR)held the first of what is to be a series of demo events dubbed \"Double Click\". Streaming to an audience of just 3.4k, this event was not aimed at investors and street analysts. It was instead a deep dive aimed at management teams and policymakers assessing potential Palantir deployments. In this article, we will summarize this event, discuss its implications, and contextualize Palantir's leading position in what is now one of the hottest areas of enterprise software.\n\nToday we're building on our inaugural demo day back in January. That event brought exceptional interest in our platform from around the globe, but in particular incredible demand in the US where we just almost can't keep up....Our two platforms, Gotham and Foundry - They're operating systems for the modern enterprise. Gotham provides an end-to-end solution, from space to mud, that integrates every single sensor, every single shooter, for US and Allied defense around the world. It is a single platform that helps you understand decide and act.Foundry is by analogy that same operating system for the enterprise. It helps you understand, decide, and act. It isn't just about analytics. It's about decisions. About making better decisions.It's not just about being more efficient. It's about winning. Winning by generating sustainable alpha by outlearning the competition, and only foundry can do this. It is a completely unique offering.-Shyam Sankar, Palantir COO\n\nSankar also detailed the critical role that Palantir's software has played in the UK's pandemic response. The NHS has used Palantir's Foundry to manage the distribution of 7.5B PPE items. The NHS has gone on to use Palantir to manage the distribution of 33M+ vaccines, hundreds of SKUs of related supplies, across 2,500 vaccination sites. All of this incorporates Palantir's privacy protections, annealing theUK's strict data privacy regulations.\nFar from being some sort of log aggregator or data visualization tool, this demo illustrated how powerful Palantir's software, specifically Foundry, truly is. Whereas Palantirpreviously coveredthe more mundane and granular details of data integration and technical aspects of Palantir Apollo back in January, this was an exciting walkthrough of use-cases and applications.\nIt's difficult to understate exactly how good it was. It was a serious tour de force. Expect analysts covering Palantir to take note. We've come a long way from a time when CNBC wasspeculating that Palantir might be some sort of 'consulting services' company.\nLife Sciences\n(Image source: Palantir)\nThe first of two industries covered, Palantir made the case for Foundry's role in health sciences to be expanded beyond its current use in managing sensitive data surrounding the pandemic. Palantir covered how the same tools could accelerate clinical research, by demonstrating how sensitive health data could be analyzed in a way that complies with understandably strict regulations.\nThe demo walked through the development of a hypothetical prognostic model for lung cancer, starting with data governance. Where Facebook(NASDAQ:FB)and Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL)have sought to simplyseize healthcare data in a clandestine format(the same way Google posted pictures of everyone's house online without their permission and used scale to make it seem normal), Palantir has built a platform that empowers data owners to work with researchers. They're in control.\nOn top of arobust suite of anonymization techniques, data governance teams have complete transparency into who has access to what data and why. This team assesses the researcher's request for data and makes sure that the access given is appropriate. This can be programmed to meet the desired data governance protocols.\nOnce a researcher has access to the relevant data, they must develop a prognostic model. Foundry enables this process to be drastically accelerated in several ways:\n\n...Every study starts with protocol writing and feasibility testing in order to identify a cohort of patients that is both medically relevant and large enough for statistical analysis. Foundry's cohorting app shortens this process by bringing medical experts data owners and biostatisticians to acommon interface, and building a library of reusable criteria......I can easily adjust the criteria to expand the population without needing to cycle through various data experts to check counts. Traditionally updating inclusion criteria can often take a week or more,meaning months can go by before analysis begins.Next, I need to filter to patients with lung cancer. Instead of spending weeks compiling the necessary code sets and logic to define this disease state, I can search our phenotype library and pull from the experience of other experts.-Benjamin Amor, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer\n\nAnalysis work can be done in multiple environments seamlessly, including R, Python, and SQL. These are directly integrated into Foundry. This enables Foundry to leverage the massive open source support for R, which has grown tonearly 17,500 different packages. Think of R packages like little software kits/apps for data scientists.\n\n(Image Source: Palantir)\nThis capability combines with cloud computing, giving data scientists the ability to offload computationally intensive workloads to high-performance computing centers. At the flick of a finger, a data scientist can spool up the massive computing power needed to analyze a large set of medical imaging data. As GPUs and other types of acceleration hardware become more powerful, the number of possibilities and speed at which they can be analyzed will continue to increase.\nMost importantly, the information gained from this analysis can be shared with the entire teamwithout actually having to share access to sensitive data.Making all of this possible is the quick unification of data from disparate sources, many different organizations with highly variable and idiosyncratic data architectures. Foundry can not only protect sensitive data, but it can cut the time needed to standardize such data from years to weeks.\n\nThe science is really accelerated, because instead of every time reinventing the wheel, you pick the parts off the shelf that you need to use. You modify them as you want, but they're reusable so we don't have to keep designing it each time.Lots of people have large data sets, but if you make them into knowledge, or you make them usable to create knowledge, that's the secret sauce. That's what Palantir gives us. That ease of use.-Ken Gersing M.D., NCATS Director of Informatics\n\nThe implementation of Foundry as an organizational 'data OS' continues to build value over time, acting as a repository for information that can be leveraged later. Past research that had previously uninteresting results might accelerate future research. Palantir refers to this as the creation of \"knowledge objects\", all fully traceable back to the raw data that was used to produce them.\nIndustrials\nThe second half of the presentation highlighted industrial applications, the most impressive of which centered around managing complex supply chains. A Palantir engineer explained how the company has worked closely with customers to integrate their needs directly into Foundry.\n\nWe've spent years working on these problems. We've actually been able to bake these hard-earned learnings back into the platform. So, now you can apply these to a specific customer's context in a matter of weeks.So, part of this is what we call software defined data integrations. Basically taking what used to take months or even years of painful manual work, and you need specialist knowledge of the underlying data sources, and actually just replacing that with a few clicks-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer\n\nIn other words, Palantir can take an insurmountable patchwork of aging ERP and CRM infrastructure and quickly integrate it into a usable platform. It can even combine this with granular data from IoT sensors. This can all be done at petabyte scale, and be up and running in a matter of days or weeks, without the need to build a new system from the ground up.\n(Image sources: Palantir)\nThis enables companies to better manage complex supply chains, track quality control, optimize production, respond to disruptions, and scan for potential problems or weaknesses. Foundry makes this all seem so easy and intuitive because it converts impossible levels of complexity into manageable data assets. A nontechnical user can be up and running quickly.\n\nPreviously it would have been impossible to respond with this level of understanding. But what's actually even more exciting here is that instead of manually comparing a few scenarios, I can actually choose the exact set of decisions that will optimize for the factors I care about most, which of course will change depending on the current circumstances.So while this might look simple, behind the scenes Foundry is comparing potentially thousands of possible scenarios to help this logistics manager make a final decision on the best outcome... keeping business running smoothly and customers on the move.Once I'm able to fully understand and react to today's challenges, the change models underpinning the supply chain critically allow simulation of future events to rebalance trade-offs effectively. So starting to shift from reaction to anticipation of the global supply chain.-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer\n\nManagers can then take things a step further, and actually analyze hypothetical future scenarios. The granularity and accuracy of such simulations will only increase as new communications technologies (such as 5G) bring new levels of connectivity to IoT sensors and nodes.\n\nSupply chain and logistics managers were previously forced to make these incredibly complex trade-offs with only a narrow view of the available context. But now with the supply chain archetype, we can not only gain an accurate and granular view of today's risks, but can also simulate future scenarios and make adjustments to make sure ournetwork is ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.So just to give you an idea of the speed and impact of the archetype, one of our industrial customers had an incredibly complex supply chain landscape with dozens of data sources, including 27 separate ERPs.With foundry, in hours they had their first integrated view of the supply chain. Within two days they were already proactively alerting on potential bottlenecks, and in just two weeks had identified around $50 million in working capital while simultaneously improving the robustness of the supply chain to react to future shocks.-Liam Mawe, Palantir Forward Deployed Engineer\n\nTo an IT executive, this probably sounds more like a miracle than a case study. The presentation on industrials also focused on a few other use-cases, but the supply chain analysis was by far the most impressive.\nDeep roots are not reached by the frost\nThe fact that a presentation that might have ignited investor interest in the stock and sent it skyrocketing wasn't promoted to investors at all tells you something very important. Demand for the type of 'data OS' that Palantir provides is heating up, and Palantir is now focused on marketing to potential customers in a very active way.\n\nThis holy grail of making data actionable by tying it into the critical business systems that power a company - turning the data warehouse into a \"central nervous system\" for the business - is what's driving incredible growth at some of the most important startups in Silicon Valley, including Canva, Drizly, Figma, Notion, Loom, Clearbit, and many more.-David Ulevitch, Andreessen Horowitz\n\nThis is evident by the fact that there has been a rush of VC capital into startup competitors. EvenNvidia(NASDAQ:NVDA) is scrambling to get in on the action. Earlier this year, Palantir andIBMformed a partnership together.\nPalantir has a nearly two-decade head start, and any advantages that might have come from working on classifiedSAP/SCIlevel software. The CTO of Splunk (SPLK)resigned the day after Palantir's Double Click event,a move that sent the stock plummeting. Coincidence?\n\nThat's almost always a warning sign for anybody in the cybersecurity business, because unless they are really truly skilled and have been doing cybersecurity as their main business for a long time, they usually don't got this.-Michael Daniel, White House Cybersecurity Coordinator (2012-2017)\n\nThe recent Solar Winds hack, whichenabled hackers to access Microsoft's sensitive source code, has highlighted the fact that a new cold war is being fought in cyberspace. Any startup entering this space, as well as any existing company looking to break in, will have to not only compete with Palantir's lengthy head start but will also have to provide cybersecurity capabilities that match the level of sensitivity of the data that they want to manage.\nThis gives Palantir an additional competitive advantage that would be extremely difficult for anyone else to replicate. If you were a CEO or CTO, who would you trust to manage your digital transformation? An 'a16z backed' startup or a company with a lengthy history of classified work for the DoD?\nPalantir's visionary CEO may have been extremely early to the party, but he wasn't wrong.\nConclusion\n\nPalantir's advisors include Condoleezza Rice and former CIA director George Tenet, who says in an interview that \"I wish we had a tool of its power\" before 9/11. General David Petraeus, the most recent former CIA chief, describes Palantir to FORBES as \"a better mousetrap when a better mousetrap was needed\" and calls Karp \"sheer brilliant.\"-Forbes Magazine, 2013\n\nWhy after such a long time, is demand for Palantir's platform suddenly expanding so rapidly?\nIn the case of the 'supply chain archetype', consider all of the investments currently being made to digitize the supply chain.

With over 700 comments and a significant amount of (negative) feedback, I believe it is appropriate to share my thoughts on some of the most important questions I have received in this article. In terms of disclosure, I do not have a short position in Palantir and do not intend to open one. I simply believe that the company&#39;s stock is difficult, if not impossible, to justify based on the company&#39;s financials.</p><p><b>My $5 Price Target For Palantir</b></p><p>In my previous article, &#34;Palantir: Fair Value Of $5,&#34; I claimed that the big-data company was fundamentally and unjustifiably overvalued. My reasoning was that a company that has been in business for as long as Palantir should have much better financials in place that look significantly better than what we see in the 10Q quarterly reports.</p><p>My main concern was Palantir&#39;s valuation, which requires buyers to pay a sales multiple of twenty. A P/E ratio of 20 would be considered high in normal and more sober times. Even allowing for Palantir&#39;s annual growth rate of 30%+, paying 20 times (expected) sales is still a bit of a stretch and requires a lot of faith that the sales growth will actually materialize. Even if it does, Palantir&#39;s valuation appears indefensible.</p><p>I&#39;d like to take this opportunity to address some of the feedback I received regarding the four areas where I received the most questions (valuation, company losses, moat and scalability).</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>Many readers strongly disagreed with my assessment. The most common question I received centered on the idea that Palantir achieves significant revenue growth and that, as a result of this rapid growth, Palantir deserves a market capitalization of at least $10 billion.</p><p>This argument ignores the fact that, for valuation purposes, the size of the revenue base is just as important as the rate of sales growth. I also don&#39;t deny that Palantir&#39;s revenue is rapidly increasing. According to the company&#39;s long-term sales forecast, the company is aiming for a 30% annual growth rate. Palantir&#39;s outlook was confirmed in the company&#39;s most recent quarterly earnings report, and the company expects 40% growth this year.</p><p>Palantir is rapidly expanding, but the revenue base must be considered alongside the sales growth rate for any sense to be made. If I run a business with $1 million in annual sales and double my sales every year, that doesn&#39;t mean the company &#34;should be worth $10 billion.&#34; This conclusion cannot be reached without taking into account the dollar revenue base. While Palantir&#39;s revenue growth rate of 30% should not be overlooked, it is not 100%.</p><p>Palantir has a market capitalization of $34 billion, and the market expects revenue of $1.53 billion in 2021 and $1.99 billion in 2022. Here, the implied sales multiples are 22 (2021e) and 17 (2022e). Palantir&#39;s growth multiples are excessive and are at risk of further contraction. Paying around 20 times sales for a business, even if it is perfect, is more than a stretch; it may be a suicide mission.</p><p><b>IPO And Losses</b></p><p>In response to my previous article, I received a lot of feedback along the lines of &#34;Palantir is investing money, and this money will come back later in terms of free cash flow,&#34; or &#34;Palantir just had its IPO, and profits are not expected.&#34;</p><p>Both arguments, in my opinion, are flawed.</p><p>Palantir is not a young company that recently went public and is looking for capital to invest. Palantir has been in business since 2003 and has yet to make a profit. In fact, company insiders have taken advantage of the market&#39;s opportunity this year to sell a large number of Class A shares in 2021.This article, which is a must-read for any Palantir investor, delves deeper into the insider sales situation that has emerged this year.</p><p>In other words, insiders with equity stakes are cashing out by dumping shares on unsuspecting retail investors willing to pay 20 times sales for a loss-making company. That story has been told to me several times in my life.</p><p>Palantir is not only losing money this year, as I explained in my previous article. Throughout its existence, the big-data company has suffered losses and accumulated losses at an alarming rate. Palantir&#39;s losses in 2021 are &#34;only&#34; $364 million. The loss may be much lower than last year by the end of September, but it is still a loss.</p><p>And, in business valuation, profits/losses should be just as important as sales forecast, which, in most cases, is positive. The point that I believe was overlooked in my previous Palantir article is that the company has $5.3 billion in accumulated losses. Accounting rules require an accumulated deficit to appear on a company&#39;s balance sheet and is deducted from stockholders&#39; equity. It displays the total of a company&#39;s losses accumulated during its active period of operation. Palantir&#39;s accumulated deficits total $5.3 billion, compared to $7.6 billion in total paid-in capital. In layman&#39;s terms, Palantir has depleted 70% of its investor capital. That&#39;s a frightening figure.</p><p>Concerning the statement &#34;Palantir is investing in its growth and will recoup its investment later&#34;: Palantir has been stuck in this phase for nearly two decades, and the company is still not profitable. Shouldn&#39;t some of the money invested 10 or more years ago have already returned?</p><p>The magnitude of the company&#39;s accumulated deficit, as well as the incredibly long period of time, two decades, during which losses have accumulated, raise serious concerns about Palantir&#39;s capital allocation. How much credit would you or I qualify for if we went to a bank with a 20-year history of making business losses?</p><p><b>Moat</b></p><p>Questions have been raised about why I believe Palantir lacks a significant moat in its business, despite the fact that the company&#39;s clients include numerous government agencies. The implication here appears to be that Palantir&#39;s relationship network serves as a moat.</p><p>Palantir works with a number of cash-rich government agencies that use the company&#39;s technology platforms across the board. I don&#39;t deny that Palantir&#39;s platforms, or &#34;foundries,&#34; as the company refers to them, perform critical data management and analytics functions. Palantir was recently awarded contracts worth millions of dollars by the United States Army and the Space Systems Command. The Army contract is worth more than $800 million, while the Space Systems Command contract is worth $43 million.</p><p>That being said, I do not deny that Palantir has been successful in obtaining contract awards. What I mean is that Palantir must go through competitive processes in order to win bids. Contracts are not awarded based on Palantir&#39;s &#34;relationships&#34; with the government. To be honest, this would be illegal. As a result, the notion that the company&#39;s relationships aid Palantir in the construction of a moat is false.</p><p><b>Scalability</b></p><p>Some of the comments I received focused on Palantir&#39;s ability to capitalize on the big data revolution, as well as Palantir&#39;s scalability.</p><p>But where is this scalability, which is frequently mentioned as a reason to buy the stock?</p><p>Palantir has stated that it requires personnel to walk customers through the functionality of its foundries. Software that necessitates customer pilots is both time consuming and costly in terms of human resources. That is the inverse of &#34;scale.&#34;<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64df144337f177af7f37125517af8d56\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"143\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>The ability to have decreasing marginal costs is a key feature of scalability. With a large enough customer base, marginal costs can be reduced to zero. This is not the case for Palantir, which must be available to clients to teach them the intricacies of the deployed platforms or walk them through new functionalities. Palantir, in my opinion, is more akin to an IT consulting firm that also sells software products. But I don&#39;t see real scalability with Palantir.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Palantir is not a profitable company. Palantir is heavily diluted. Insiders at Palantir are selling. Even with 30% annual revenue growth, Palantir&#39;s stock remains wildly overpriced.</p><p>High-multiple stocks, particularly in the technology sector, have recently begun to consolidate, and more downside is on the way as investors become less willing to pay top dollar for businesses that have flown high but failed to meet high expectations.</p><p>Palantir&#39;s valuation is a huge issue, and despite the fact that the big-data company operates in a sexy industry with a lot of hype, the business fundamentals simply do not justify Palantir&#39;s market price.</p><p><b>My Conclusion</b></p><p>I&#39;m not saying Palantir doesn&#39;t have significant annual sales growth. I&#39;m not saying Palantir&#39;s products are useless to the government. What I am saying is that Palantir&#39;s loss-making business does not merit a sales multiple of 20. Even if it was profitable, it wouldn&#39;t deserve this kind of sales multiple.</p><p>That&#39;s why I&#39;m sticking to my $5 price target for Palantir. A $5 price target implies a $10 billion market valuation and a sales multiple of 5, which is still more than generous. Due to the persistence of business losses, an earnings multiple is unfortunately inapplicable here. I believe that the majority of the feedback was well-intentioned, but the bull case still has some serious flaws.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: A Defense Of My $5 Price Target</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: A Defense Of My $5 Price Target\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-14 10:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4479466-palantir-a-defense-of-my-5-price-target><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryI respond to reader feedback on my most recent Palantir article.Reader feedback is divided into four categories: valuation, company losses, moat, and scalability.I stand by my assertion that ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4479466-palantir-a-defense-of-my-5-price-target\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4479466-palantir-a-defense-of-my-5-price-target","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1189278661","content_text":"SummaryI respond to reader feedback on my most recent Palantir article.Reader feedback is divided into four categories: valuation, company losses, moat, and scalability.I stand by my assertion that Palantir is highly overvalued.My previous article on the big-data company Palantir (PLTR)created quite a stir.

I projected that the AWS segment will probably continue to grow at a high rate. I projected a 25-30% annual revenue growth rate because cloud computing has a lot of room to grow, and according to Research and Markets, the cloud computing industry should grow at about&nbsp;17.5% CAGR&nbsp;until 2025.</p>\n<p>Additionally, I projected 28% operating margins, because the AWS business benefits from operating leverage.

Despite its innovative software solutions, the company’s business model has its flaws and various insider actions are preventing its stock from growing further. As a result, wecontinueto believe that Palantir’s stock will go nowhere from here anytime soon and believe that there are three major reasons why to avoid Palantir at this stage.</p>\n<p><b>Reason #1: Long Sales Cycle and the Lack of Scalability Options Are Limiting the Upside</b></p>\n<p>Founded in 2003, Palantir, through its platforms Gotham and Foundry, develops custom-built software solutions to manage big amounts of data of complex projects in various military and commercial fields. The biggest downside of Palantir’s business model is that its sales cycle could last from a couple of months to over a year depending on a customer, which prevents the company from easily scaling its solutions. Palantir even has a position of a forward-deployed engineer, who like a consultant works closely with the potential clients for a while, learns about their business, and looks for ways to help them better manage their data. Considering this, it’s safe to assume that Palantir is more of a consulting company than a scalable SaaS business.</p>\n<p>Another downside of Palantir is that it’s not performing well in terms of customer adds. As of today, the company has less than 200 customers, and it’s not even one of the major contractors of the DoD despite working with the federal government for nearly two decades. In addition, as there’s a critical shortage of key components in automotive and other industries, it’s safe to assume that businesses from those fields will be looking for software that could help them find weak links in their supply chain to help them effectively weather the current crisis, and Palantir should be at the top of their list. However, so far Palantir hasn’t added a sizeable number of major commercial clients in recent months.</p>\n<p>At this stage, the only advantage of Palantir is that it finds and structures the data better than others. However, the problem is that its software is suitable mostly for the big organizations where a lot of business processes are involved. On top of that, let’s not forget that Palantir’s average contract value is in the range of $5 million to $6 million, while some businesses pay it as high as $10 million to $100 million to use its software. With such a high cost of using Palantir’s software, its pool of potential clients is significantly small in comparison to the average SaaS company.</p>\n<p>That’s one of the main reasons why Palantir failed to gain traction in the last 18 years, never made a profit throughout most of its history, and never recorded a net income since becoming a public company last year. While it’s normal for a growth company not to make a profit at first, let’s not forget that Palantir is no longer a startup and its pool of potential customers is relatively small. In addition, let’s also not ignore the fact that two dozen of its clients generate the majority of revenues and a loss of even one client could significantly prevent its top-line from growing at the current rate. As we’ve noted in our previous article on the company, business behemoths like American Express (AXP) and Coca-Cola (KO) already stopped working with Palantir, so there’s no guarantee that nearly 200 of its existing customers will continue to work with Palantir’s software in the long run.</p>\n<p><b>Reason #2: Shareholder Unfriendliness</b></p>\n<p>Bullish investors constantly discuss how good of a company Palantir is, and how its software solutions could revolutionize every industry that exists. However, they often fail to look at Palantir from an investment perspective and are not mentioning the things that prevented and will likely prevent its stock from significantly appreciating in value in the foreseeable future. If we look at Palantir’s stock chart since mid-February, we’ll see that the share price has been constantly moving in the range between $18 and $30 per share without appreciating much. This is because of several things.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1280a27710b176417cc153e4fb1c711\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"443\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Chart: Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>First of all, Palantir has an excessive stock-based compensation program, which is hurting the company’s bottom line. InQ1, Palantir’s stock-based compensation expense stood at $193 million, up ~257% Y/Y from $54 million a year ago, while its operating loss widened from $70.2 million in Q1’20 to $114 million in Q1’21, and while its net loss widened as well from $54.3 million in Q1’20 to $123.4 million in Q1’21. Another downside of the program is that it’s not friendly to its shareholders, most of whom are retail investors that own the majority of the company and are constantly being diluted. While at the end of 2020, Palantir had 1.52 billion shares outstanding, at the end of Q1 its share count already increased by 18% to 1.80 billion shares outstanding. On top of that, the company’s latest10-Qfiling shows that at the end of March 477 million options were outstanding on balance with an average exercise price of $6.39 per share, significantly below the current market value of over $20 per share. Those options represent ~26% of the current share count and if exercised in the upcoming months, will dilute existing shareholders even more. Considering this, buying Palantir stock can’t be considered a wise investment at this stage, as there’s still a high risk that the company will continue to exercise some portion of those options every quarter, which will make the investment in the company worth less than before.</p>\n<p>Another shareholder unfriendly action that Palantir insiders are doing is the constant selling of stock, which adds additional selling pressure and prevents the price from appreciating further from the current levels. Nearly half a billion worth of Palantir shares weresoldby its insiders in the last 4 quarters, and in less than a month since our last article on the company came out they sold an additional $33 million worth of shares. As a result of those actions, insiders in total sold $163 million worth of shares in Q2, significantly more than in Q1 when the lock-up period ended, and that selling is unlikely to stop anytime soon. Due to those actions, institutional investors began to add the selling pressure as well. While the inflow of institutional funds in Q2increasedby 13.4% Q/Q to $2.95 billion, the capital outflow increased as well by 213% Q/Q to $1.82 billion. Considering this, we believe that the selling of shares in bulk will continue and this will prevent Palantir's share price from significantly rising anytime soon.</p>\n<p><b>Reason #3: Valuation</b></p>\n<p>At a market cap of ~$47 billion, Palantir is priced like a high-margin SaaS company, even though it doesn’t operate like one. In Q1, Palantir generated only $341 million in revenues, and in Q2 and FY21 it’sexpectedto generate $360 million and $1.48 billion in revenues, respectively. Considering those numbers, it will take years for Palantir to reach its current valuation even if it continues to grow at the current rate, and there’s no guarantee that the growth won’t slow down in the upcoming years due to the limited pool of potential customers. Therefore, it’s safe to say that at a forward P/E ratio of 174x and a forward P/S ratio of 32x, Palantir is extremely overvalued and doesn’t have a lot of upside at this stage.</p>\n<p>In the end, the company could become an interesting long-term play only when the stock declines lower, most of the options are exercised and insiders ease the selling pressure. Until then, Palantir will remain an unattractive stock that’s unlikely to significantly appreciate from the current levels and that’s why we believe that it’s better to avoid it at this stage and look for other, more attractive growth opportunities.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Reasons To Avoid Palantir</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Reasons To Avoid Palantir\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-22 09:08 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435871-3-reasons-to-avoid-palantir><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAt a market cap of ~$47 billion, Palantir is priced like a high-margin SaaS company, even though it doesn’t operate like one.\nDue to the high cost of Palantir’s software, its pool of ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435871-3-reasons-to-avoid-palantir\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435871-3-reasons-to-avoid-palantir","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1111429380","content_text":"Summary\n\nAt a market cap of ~$47 billion, Palantir is priced like a high-margin SaaS company, even though it doesn’t operate like one.\nDue to the high cost of Palantir’s software, its pool of potential clients is significantly small in comparison to the average SaaS company.\nUntil most of the options are exercised and insiders ease the selling pressure, Palantir’s stock is unlikely to appreciate further from the current levels anytime soon.\nLooking for a helping hand in the market?

While at the end of 2020, Palantir had 1.52 billion shares outstanding, at the end of Q1 its share count already increased by 18% to 1.80 billion shares outstanding. On top of that, the company’s latest10-Qfiling shows that at the end of March 477 million options were outstanding on balance with an average exercise price of $6.39 per share, significantly below the current market value of over $20 per share. Those options represent ~26% of the current share count and if exercised in the upcoming months, will dilute existing shareholders even more. Considering this, buying Palantir stock can’t be considered a wise investment at this stage, as there’s still a high risk that the company will continue to exercise some portion of those options every quarter, which will make the investment in the company worth less than before.\nAnother shareholder unfriendly action that Palantir insiders are doing is the constant selling of stock, which adds additional selling pressure and prevents the price from appreciating further from the current levels. Nearly half a billion worth of Palantir shares weresoldby its insiders in the last 4 quarters, and in less than a month since our last article on the company came out they sold an additional $33 million worth of shares. As a result of those actions, insiders in total sold $163 million worth of shares in Q2, significantly more than in Q1 when the lock-up period ended, and that selling is unlikely to stop anytime soon. Due to those actions, institutional investors began to add the selling pressure as well. While the inflow of institutional funds in Q2increasedby 13.4% Q/Q to $2.95 billion, the capital outflow increased as well by 213% Q/Q to $1.82 billion. Considering this, we believe that the selling of shares in bulk will continue and this will prevent Palantir's share price from significantly rising anytime soon.\nReason #3: Valuation\nAt a market cap of ~$47 billion, Palantir is priced like a high-margin SaaS company, even though it doesn’t operate like one. In Q1, Palantir generated only $341 million in revenues, and in Q2 and FY21 it’sexpectedto generate $360 million and $1.48 billion in revenues, respectively. Considering those numbers, it will take years for Palantir to reach its current valuation even if it continues to grow at the current rate, and there’s no guarantee that the growth won’t slow down in the upcoming years due to the limited pool of potential customers. Therefore, it’s safe to say that at a forward P/E ratio of 174x and a forward P/S ratio of 32x, Palantir is extremely overvalued and doesn’t have a lot of upside at this stage.\nIn the end, the company could become an interesting long-term play only when the stock declines lower, most of the options are exercised and insiders ease the selling pressure. Until then, Palantir will remain an unattractive stock that’s unlikely to significantly appreciate from the current levels and that’s why we believe that it’s better to avoid it at this stage and look for other, more attractive growth opportunities.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":446,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":125512628,"gmtCreate":1624680061964,"gmtModify":1703843504254,"author":{"id":"3575019409404952","authorId":"3575019409404952","authorIdStr":"3575019409404952","name":"BlankTrader","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee529534fc07f1ba05bacdda297a3cb6","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575019409404952"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hm","listText":"Hm","text":"Hm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/125512628","repostId":"2146107083","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146107083","pubTimestamp":1624673250,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2146107083?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-26 10:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks You Can Keep Forever","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146107083","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A long history of success coupled with bright prospects are the key ingredients for companies you can hold for the long term.","content":"<p>When looking for investments that have the potential to be held forever, it's beneficial not to only look at the latest technological craze or most disruptive businesses.

Costco Wholesale</h2>\n<p><b>Costco Wholesale</b> (NASDAQ:COST), with its&nbsp;809 warehouses around the world, generated sales of $44.4 billion in the most recent quarter, a 21.7% jump from the prior-year period. As <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the world's largest retailers, Costco was a mission-critical business during the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. Consumers visited stores to shop for everything from cleaning supplies to food.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The company's operations haven't changed much over time, and they likely won't anytime soon. Even e-commerce sales, which expanded rapidly over the past&nbsp;year&nbsp;and grew 41.2%&nbsp;in the most recent quarter, are slowing down. During the month of May, online revenue rose&nbsp;just&nbsp;12.1%, signaling&nbsp;that shoppers&nbsp;are able and willing to transact more in person now.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Costco is a&nbsp;recession-proof business&nbsp;that does well in good and bad economic times, which provides the safety investors want in a forever stock. Moreover, the reliance on membership fees, of which Costco generated $901&nbsp;million&nbsp;last quarter, allows the company to keep prices very low. As of March 31, Costco had 109.8&nbsp;million&nbsp;membership cardholders.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Costco has and will continue to gain from its relentless focus to pass on savings to customers. This consumer-friendly fixation makes it difficult for rivals to compete and makes the business that much more loved by its shoppers.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>2. Home Depot</h2>\n<p><b>Home Depot</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:HD) has grown to a $331 billion business because people love to spend on their homes. Again, this facet of human nature will never change, and it was on full display over the past year. Home Depot's revenue in fiscal 2020 increased 19.9%, the fastest annual gain in at least a decade. As consumers spent more time indoors and shifted spending away from travel, entertainment, and leisure, Home Depot benefited greatly.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>And even as we slowly recover from the pandemic, the&nbsp;momentum is still strong. Same-store sales (or comps) in the most recent quarter shot&nbsp;up 31%, continuing an acceleration over the past four quarters. The housing market is on fire, supported by still historically low interest rates and rising home prices, all of which support demand for Home Depot's products.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The company serves both do-it-yourself (DIY) and professional (Pro) customers. The former outperformed during 2020, but the latter is reemerging as a real growth driver as people require work on bigger projects and are more comfortable allowing contractors into their homes. Additionally, a seamless omnichannel approach allows customers to shop Home Depot in whatever manner they like. In the most recent quarter, 55%&nbsp;of online orders were actually fulfilled at a store.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Home Depot&nbsp;paid $1.8 billion in dividends in the first quarter, and also bought back $4 billion worth of shares. Focusing on returning excess cash to shareholders further boosts investor returns.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>3. Starbucks</h2>\n<p><b>Starbucks</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:SBUX), the ubiquitous coffeehouse chain with nearly 33,000&nbsp;locations worldwide, is arguably an even more important part of people's daily lives than the previous two&nbsp;companies. Americans (and the rest of the world) need their caffeine fix, and Starbucks is there to deliver.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>The business is&nbsp;back to registering growth in the U.S. following a huge slowdown last year. With 22.9 million&nbsp;active rewards members, Starbucks' top-notch loyalty program encourages repeat business. In the most recent quarter, a whopping 52% of sales at U.S. company-operated stores were from these rewards-program customers.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>You may think there isn't much growth left for this powerful brand that already has stores basically everywhere, but think again. During the investor day presentation last December, CFO Patrick Grismer claimed that by 2030, Starbucks plans to have 55,000 outlets in 100 markets globally. This 67% increase would make it the largest restaurant chain in the world. With revenue of $23.8 billion over the past 12 months, this ambitious goal should certainly boost that number significantly.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Expect China, where comps soared 91%&nbsp;in the most recent quarter, to be a major growth driver going forward. Starbucks plans to open&nbsp;600&nbsp;net new stores in the country just in this fiscal year.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>Boring is beautiful&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>All three of these companies are absolutely essential in their customers' lives. Without Costco, Home Depot, or Starbucks, people wouldn't be able to get the things they desperately need. Furthermore, they all benefit from strong competitive advantages that protect them from rival firms.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>In the future, we know with a high level of confidence that the products that these businesses sell will still be in high demand.

The chipmaker ended 2020 on a high and expects to deliver massive growth once again this year. More importantly, investors shouldn't worry too much about the potential impact of Intel's recent announcements on AMD's fortunes just yet, as the latter has enough going for it to ward off any threat from its bigger rival.</p>\n<p>Let's see why.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20fce0458082e183812db30c73121bac\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\"><span>AMD data by YCharts</span></p>\n<h2>AMD isn't going to fall behind Intel anytime soon</h2>\n<p>AMD chipped away substantially at Intel's dominance in PC central processing units (CPUs) and server processors last year. The chipmaker ended 2020 with a 21.7% share of the x86 processor market, which includes chips used in servers, laptops, and desktops, up from 15.1% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019.</p>\n<p>However, there has been chatter of Intel being on the path of a turnaround, as it had reclaimed some of its market share from AMD in the fourth quarter of 2020 on a quarter-over-quarter basis. That chatter has only become stronger as Chipzilla reportedly looks to erase AMD's technological leadership with aggressive capacity investments.</p>\n<p>Intel recently announced a capital expenditure budget of $20 billion for 2021, a big increase over last year's $14 billion outlay, as it looks to shore up its manufacturing. The company says that the delays it faced with the 10-nanometer (nm) and 7nm chip manufacturing processes are now fixed. In fact, Intel says that its 7nm client CPUs code-named Meteor Lake are in development and will tape in the next quarter. Intel is expected to start shipping&nbsp;its 7nm PC chips to customers in 2023, while data center chips based on the platform are also expected in that year.</p>\n<p>AMD has already been selling 7nm processors for quite some time now, giving it an advantage over Intel, which fumbled its transition to the competing 10nm platform and has remained stuck on the 14nm platform for a long time now. What's more, investors need not be afraid of Intel's progress on the 7nm front, as Chipzilla's timeline for the launch of those chips hasn't changed.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d1a80e2bc655d91abe37c8c8083b1ab\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"510\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>In fact, AMD can be expected to raise its game by the time Intel's 7nm chips hit the market by transitioning to the competing 5nm manufacturing node within the next couple of years. A smaller processing node will allow AMD to pack more&nbsp;transistors closer to each other, leading to improved computing performance and lower power consumption.</p>\n<p>Therefore, AMD can remain ahead of Intel once it makes the transition to a smaller 5nm process node. Chipzilla is unlikely to regain its technology lead until the launch of its own 5nm process, the timeline for which is unknown right now. As it turns out, AMD's foundry partner <b>Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing</b> is reportedly working to increase the production capacity of 5nm chips. That should bode well for AMD, as it is expected&nbsp;to become TSMC's second-largest customer and enjoy stronger bargaining power.</p>\n<p>Additionally, AMD can be expected to keep up the pressure on Intel in the data center space after the launch&nbsp;of its latest EPYC server processors. AMD claims that the latest EPYC 7003 processors based on the 7nm process are twice as fast as Intel's competing chips. Third-party tests conducted by <i>AnandTech</i> indicate the same.</p>\n<p>More importantly, AMD has a solid lineup of clients using the latest EPYC server processors. They include&nbsp;<b>Amazon</b>, <b>Cisco</b>, <b>Dell Technologies</b>, <b>Alphabet</b>'s Google, <b>Microsoft</b>, <b>Lenovo</b>, and <b>Tencent</b>.

The chipmaker ended 2020 on a high and expects to deliver massive growth once again this year. More importantly, investors shouldn't worry too much about the potential impact of Intel's recent announcements on AMD's fortunes just yet, as the latter has enough going for it to ward off any threat from its bigger rival.\nLet's see why.\nAMD data by YCharts\nAMD isn't going to fall behind Intel anytime soon\nAMD chipped away substantially at Intel's dominance in PC central processing units (CPUs) and server processors last year. The chipmaker ended 2020 with a 21.7% share of the x86 processor market, which includes chips used in servers, laptops, and desktops, up from 15.1% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019.\nHowever, there has been chatter of Intel being on the path of a turnaround, as it had reclaimed some of its market share from AMD in the fourth quarter of 2020 on a quarter-over-quarter basis. That chatter has only become stronger as Chipzilla reportedly looks to erase AMD's technological leadership with aggressive capacity investments.\nIntel recently announced a capital expenditure budget of $20 billion for 2021, a big increase over last year's $14 billion outlay, as it looks to shore up its manufacturing. The company says that the delays it faced with the 10-nanometer (nm) and 7nm chip manufacturing processes are now fixed. In fact, Intel says that its 7nm client CPUs code-named Meteor Lake are in development and will tape in the next quarter. Intel is expected to start shipping its 7nm PC chips to customers in 2023, while data center chips based on the platform are also expected in that year.\nAMD has already been selling 7nm processors for quite some time now, giving it an advantage over Intel, which fumbled its transition to the competing 10nm platform and has remained stuck on the 14nm platform for a long time now. What's more, investors need not be afraid of Intel's progress on the 7nm front, as Chipzilla's timeline for the launch of those chips hasn't changed.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nIn fact, AMD can be expected to raise its game by the time Intel's 7nm chips hit the market by transitioning to the competing 5nm manufacturing node within the next couple of years. A smaller processing node will allow AMD to pack more transistors closer to each other, leading to improved computing performance and lower power consumption.\nTherefore, AMD can remain ahead of Intel once it makes the transition to a smaller 5nm process node. Chipzilla is unlikely to regain its technology lead until the launch of its own 5nm process, the timeline for which is unknown right now. As it turns out, AMD's foundry partner Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is reportedly working to increase the production capacity of 5nm chips. That should bode well for AMD, as it is expected to become TSMC's second-largest customer and enjoy stronger bargaining power.\nAdditionally, AMD can be expected to keep up the pressure on Intel in the data center space after the launch of its latest EPYC server processors. AMD claims that the latest EPYC 7003 processors based on the 7nm process are twice as fast as Intel's competing chips. Third-party tests conducted by AnandTech indicate the same.\nMore importantly, AMD has a solid lineup of clients using the latest EPYC server processors. They include Amazon, Cisco, Dell Technologies, Alphabet's Google, Microsoft, Lenovo, and Tencent. So it won't be surprising to see AMD log big gains in the data center market in both the short and the long run.\nBuy when others are fearful\nAMD stock has become cheaper thanks to the recent pullback, trading at 38 times trailing earnings.
