As seen on the 24/7 Wall St. homepage on September 17, 2026.

Cramer is reaffirming a $250 target on Palantir, a call that only works if government and commercial AI bookings keep compounding at their current pace.

Cramer reaffirmed his $250 price target on Palantir on September 17, 2026, addressing CEO Alex Karp directly. The $250 level is now a widely watched benchmark for holders.

Cramer is not revising the number downward, signaling his thesis on Palantir's government and commercial AI business remains intact.

The replies show the target is generating real debate among skeptics and prospective buyers alike.

Any meaningful price movement toward or away from the $250 level is worth tracking from here.
