Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Hit or exceeded the predicted growth inside the window.
The thesis — published July 17, 2025
Palantir shares just reached their highest price ever, and trading volume is double what we usually see. The stock is already up 100 percent this year, and many investors expect the August results to highlight more deals for its artificial-intelligence software. Strong demand and better company numbers suggest the climb can continue, but the price looks stretched, so a short-term dip toward the low 150s could appear before another 25-30 percent move higher within three months.
Primary drivers
- New record price with double-normal trading shows heavy interest.
- Fresh AI deals could lift next year’s sales by about 27 percent.
- Options market shows many traders betting on good earnings news.
- Positive mood and better results make the stock look less expensive.
