Reached 3% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published January 25, 2026
Palantir is a volatile AI software stock best used for a short-term rebound trade, not a permanent hold. Recent news-bigger roles in government and industry AI and a multiyear aviation partnership-keeps interest strong. Because the price swings a lot, wait for selling to calm and buy gradually over a few weeks to a few months.
Primary drivers
- Deals with governments and industries keep demand visible
- Partnerships open new commercial opportunities and visibility
- High volatility can produce quick, sizable recoveries
- Well-known AI brand keeps investor attention and credibility
