This has put the market capitalization at $48.7 billion. Although, as has been the case with other hot tech operators lately, PLTR stock has come under pressure. The price has gone from a high of $45 to $26.70.\nFounded in 2003, Palantir has become one of the top players in developing sophisticated AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning) systems. Last year, the company posted $1.1 billion in revenues, up about 47% on a year-over- year basis.\nWhen the company started, the focus was on government customers. Often the applications were to help with confidential activities like hunting down terrorists. There was even speculation that Palantir helped to locate Osama bin Laden.\nBut over the past decade, Palantir has leveraged its technologies into commercial markets and has been able to snag customers like BP(NYSE:BP),Rio Tinto(NYSE:RIO) and PG&E(NYSE:PCG). This expansion of the business has increased the market potential to a staggering $119 billion.\nOK then, what now for PLTR stock? With the recent weakness, is there an opportunity here? Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":324186124,"gmtCreate":1615974628268,"gmtModify":1704789135265,"author":{"id":"3569318025811476","authorId":"3569318025811476","name":"LeonardKSW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eeba92ccfc8a91444aa3e36de4a39425","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50a4c8d97279fa9f8f1fa9749a6bdff4","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3569318025811476","authorIdStr":"3569318025811476"},"htmlText":"So many bad posts of PLTR...will it soar one day..yes it will... when?

This expansion of the business has increased the market potential to a staggering $119 billion.\nOK then, what now for PLTR stock? With the recent weakness, is there an opportunity here? Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":324003741,"gmtCreate":1615941399583,"gmtModify":1704788669896,"author":{"id":"3554885086267037","authorId":"3554885086267037","name":"TheCrazyOne","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/65f76864045dcdc9a0af31f5afe47e28","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3554885086267037","authorIdStr":"3554885086267037"},"htmlText":"Fear mongering article... push price down and buy...","listText":"Fear mongering article... push price down and buy...","text":"Fear mongering article... push price down and buy...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/324003741","repostId":1124564578,"repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1124564578","pubTimestamp":1615881961,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124564578?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-16 16:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons To Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124564578","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (I","content":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of&nbsp;Palantir Technologies&nbsp;(NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains, up about 190%.

Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":325752999,"gmtCreate":1615939901511,"gmtModify":1704788633180,"author":{"id":"3577531997673531","authorId":"3577531997673531","name":"3ox","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f0340340cf207115c944bbe9fcb8e1f0","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3577531997673531","authorIdStr":"3577531997673531"},"htmlText":"?&nbsp;","listText":"?&nbsp;","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325752999","repostId":1124564578,"repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1124564578","pubTimestamp":1615881961,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124564578?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-16 16:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons To Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124564578","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (I","content":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of&nbsp;Palantir Technologies&nbsp;(NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains, up about 190%.

There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4096611,"gmtCreate":1619046333993,"gmtModify":1680785014078,"authorId":3570914862018043,"author":{"id":3570914862018043,"idStr":"3570914862018043","authorId":3570914862018043,"name":"atf_nato","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb6626b5797e1473cb517200064728c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325469839,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[无语]","text":"[无语]","html":"[无语]"},{"id":3957964,"gmtCreate":1617578307509,"gmtModify":1680782862366,"authorId":3570914862018043,"author":{"id":3570914862018043,"idStr":"3570914862018043","authorId":3570914862018043,"name":"atf_nato","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb6626b5797e1473cb517200064728c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325469839,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"?","text":"?","html":"?"},{"id":3914865,"gmtCreate":1617035327570,"gmtModify":1680782200210,"authorId":3570914862018043,"author":{"id":3570914862018043,"idStr":"3570914862018043","authorId":3570914862018043,"name":"atf_nato","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb6626b5797e1473cb517200064728c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325469839,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[微笑]","text":"[微笑]","html":"[微笑]"},{"id":3832111,"gmtCreate":1616116808845,"gmtModify":1680780942446,"authorId":3570914862018043,"author":{"id":3570914862018043,"idStr":"3570914862018043","authorId":3570914862018043,"name":"atf_nato","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb6626b5797e1473cb517200064728c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325469839,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Interesting","text":"Interesting","html":"Interesting"},{"id":3812187,"gmtCreate":1615939557807,"gmtModify":1680780640409,"authorId":3569554330947500,"author":{"id":3569554330947500,"idStr":"3569554330947500","authorId":3569554330947500,"name":"GraceChan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81c02019bb8fa5f8e43df505dfbe5c64","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325469839,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[强]","text":"[强]","html":"[强]"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":325414186,"gmtCreate":1615912410545,"gmtModify":1704788458867,"author":{"id":"3577225119916525","authorId":"3577225119916525","name":"Ylzhao","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a9f86547259196cbaedf106007822eb","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3577225119916525","authorIdStr":"3577225119916525"},"htmlText":"Palantir has the government to back up","listText":"Palantir has the government to back up","text":"Palantir has the government to back up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325414186","repostId":1124564578,"repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1124564578","pubTimestamp":1615881961,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124564578?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-16 16:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons To Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124564578","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (I","content":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of&nbsp;Palantir Technologies&nbsp;(NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains, up about 190%.

This has put the market capitalization at $48.7 billion. Although, as has been the case with other hot tech operators lately, PLTR stock has come under pressure. The price has gone from a high of $45 to $26.70.\nFounded in 2003, Palantir has become one of the top players in developing sophisticated AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning) systems. Last year, the company posted $1.1 billion in revenues, up about 47% on a year-over- year basis.\nWhen the company started, the focus was on government customers. Often the applications were to help with confidential activities like hunting down terrorists. There was even speculation that Palantir helped to locate Osama bin Laden.\nBut over the past decade, Palantir has leveraged its technologies into commercial markets and has been able to snag customers like BP(NYSE:BP),Rio Tinto(NYSE:RIO) and PG&E(NYSE:PCG). This expansion of the business has increased the market potential to a staggering $119 billion.\nOK then, what now for PLTR stock? With the recent weakness, is there an opportunity here? Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive.

This has put the market capitalization at $48.7 billion. Although, as has been the case with other hot tech operators lately, PLTR stock has come under pressure. The price has gone from a high of $45 to $26.70.\nFounded in 2003, Palantir has become one of the top players in developing sophisticated AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning) systems. Last year, the company posted&nbsp;$1.1 billion in revenues, up about 47% on a year-over- year basis.\nWhen the company started, the focus was on government customers. Often the applications were to help with confidential activities like hunting down terrorists. There was even speculation that Palantir helped to locate Osama bin Laden.\nBut over the past decade, Palantir has leveraged its technologies into commercial markets and has been able to snag customers like&nbsp;BP(NYSE:BP),Rio Tinto(NYSE:RIO) and&nbsp;PG&amp;E(NYSE:PCG). This expansion of the business has increased the market potential to a&nbsp;staggering $119 billion.\nOK then, what now for PLTR stock? With the recent weakness, is there an opportunity here? Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the&nbsp;revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.&nbsp; All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at&nbsp;$132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like&nbsp;C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","source":"lsy1606302653667","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 Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now</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 Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-16 16:06 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/03/pltr-stock-3-reasons-to-be-cautious-about-palantir-right-now/>InvestorPlace</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\nThe commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains,...\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/03/pltr-stock-3-reasons-to-be-cautious-about-palantir-right-now/\">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://investorplace.com/2021/03/pltr-stock-3-reasons-to-be-cautious-about-palantir-right-now/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1124564578","content_text":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains, up about 190%.

And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":325606974,"gmtCreate":1615891149098,"gmtModify":1704788007728,"author":{"id":"3562242161850032","authorId":"3562242161850032","name":"Lucky222","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b508cc2a57922485ad47a4671237db54","vip":1,"crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3562242161850032","authorIdStr":"3562242161850032"},"htmlText":"ARK is accumulating recently?&nbsp;","listText":"ARK is accumulating recently?&nbsp;","text":"ARK is accumulating recently?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325606974","repostId":1124564578,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1124564578","pubTimestamp":1615881961,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124564578?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-16 16:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons To Be Cautious About Palantir Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124564578","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (I","content":"The commercial business is becoming an issue for PLTR stock\nSince the its initial public offering (IPO) in late September, the shares of&nbsp;Palantir Technologies&nbsp;(NYSE:PLTR) have logged impressive gains, up about 190%.

There was even speculation that Palantir helped to locate Osama bin Laden.\nBut over the past decade, Palantir has leveraged its technologies into commercial markets and has been able to snag customers like BP(NYSE:BP),Rio Tinto(NYSE:RIO) and PG&E(NYSE:PCG). This expansion of the business has increased the market potential to a staggering $119 billion.\nOK then, what now for PLTR stock? With the recent weakness, is there an opportunity here? Well, I actually think investors should be patient on this. There are some nagging issues with the company.\nLet’s take a look.\nThe Growth Story\nIt’s important to note that – during the history of Palantir – the growth has been choppy and inconsistent. And this should not be a surprise. The company’s contracts are large and usually last several years. As a result, the sale cycle can be tough and prolonged.\nThis appears to have been evident in the latest quarter, as the growth ramp is starting to decelerated. Based on the full-year forecast, the revenues are expected to increase about 30%.\nGranted, this may be a conservative forecast. But then again, it is still does look like there will some headwinds this year.\nValuation of PLTR Stock\nYes, when it comes to stocks nowadays, valuation has not necessarily been an issue. But this sentiment is starting to change. If a company is unable to keep up the growth ramp, there could be more selling. As for PLTR stock, the multiple is still at a hefty 24 times sales.\nSomething else: There has been notable insider selling at the company. When the IPO lock-up expired, the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar,sold 757,510 shares at prices that ranged from $24.59 to $29. There was also the unloading of 2.7 million shares from three other executives.  All in all, this is an indication that it could be tough for Palantir meet Wall Street expectations.\nThe Commercial Business\nPalantir has two major software platforms. First, there is Gotham, which is focused on the needs of defense and intelligence agencies. The technology is essentially about “finding the needle in the haystack” by analyzing enormous amounts of data.\nNext, Palantir has the Foundry platform. And yes, it is primarily for commercial customers. The technology has been effective in helping to solve problems across a wide-array of industries like banking, pharmaceuticals, retail, insurance, energy and so on.\nNow the government business has done extremely well. Indeed, revenue from government customers were reported at $132 million, which is an 85% increase from last quarter.\nBut the commercial side is another story. The revenues were up a mere 4% in the quarter $132 million.\nWhy is this so? First of all, the Foundry technology is less mature. But the commercial category is also much more competitive. Palantir must fight against top companies like C3Ai(NYSE:AI). And with the continued surge in venture funding in Silicon Valley, there are startups emerging to capitalize on the AI opportunity.\nIt could get even tougher for Palantir to find new business and keep up the growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":3810570,"gmtCreate":1615909499942,"gmtModify":1680780608308,"authorId":3574854199678785,"author":{"id":3574854199678785,"idStr":"3574854199678785","authorId":3574854199678785,"name":"MarkJuan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90cb9375bf12207de12cb272883acaa8","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325899948,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Teach Me Pls","text":"Teach Me Pls","html":"Teach Me Pls"},{"id":3810585,"gmtCreate":1615909606363,"gmtModify":1680780606386,"authorId":3574854199678785,"author":{"id":3574854199678785,"idStr":"3574854199678785","authorId":3574854199678785,"name":"MarkJuan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/90cb9375bf12207de12cb272883acaa8","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":3547806760926035,"repliedAuthor":{"id":3547806760926035,"idStr":"3547806760926035","authorId":3547806760926035,"name":"Phyllispoh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"currentWearingBadge":{"badgeId":"44212b71d0be4ec88898348dbe882e03-2","templateUuid":"44212b71d0be4ec88898348dbe882e03","name":"Executive Tiger","description":"The transaction amount of the securities account reaches $300,000","bigImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d20b23f1b6335407f882bc5c2ad12c0","smallImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ada3b4533518ace8404a3f6dd192bd29","grayImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/177f283ba21d1c077054dac07f88f3bd","redirectLinkEnabled":0,"hasAllocated":1,"isWearing":1,"stampPosition":0,"hasStamp":0,"allocationCount":1,"allocatedDate":"2023.07.14","exceedPercentage":"80.27%","individualDisplayEnabled":0,"individualDisplaySort":0,"categoryType":1101},"crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"objectId":325899948,"type":1,"supId":3810570,"prevId":3810578,"content":"What if i, buy low sell lower","text":"What if i, buy low sell lower","html":"What if i, buy low sell lower"},{"id":3810578,"gmtCreate":1615909568892,"gmtModify":1680780605058,"authorId":3547806760926035,"author":{"id":3547806760926035,"idStr":"3547806760926035","authorId":3547806760926035,"name":"Phyllispoh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"currentWearingBadge":{"badgeId":"44212b71d0be4ec88898348dbe882e03-2","templateUuid":"44212b71d0be4ec88898348dbe882e03","name":"Executive Tiger","description":"The transaction amount of the securities account reaches $300,000","bigImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d20b23f1b6335407f882bc5c2ad12c0","smallImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ada3b4533518ace8404a3f6dd192bd29","grayImgUrl":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/177f283ba21d1c077054dac07f88f3bd","redirectLinkEnabled":0,"hasAllocated":1,"isWearing":1,"stampPosition":0,"hasStamp":0,"allocationCount":1,"allocatedDate":"2023.07.14","exceedPercentage":"80.27%","individualDisplayEnabled":0,"individualDisplaySort":0,"categoryType":1101},"crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":325899948,"type":1,"supId":3810570,"prevId":0,"content":"Buy low Sell high","text":"Buy low Sell high","html":"Buy low Sell high"}],"langContent":"EN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":36,"commentSize":23,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":2,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
