Palantir (PLTR) Just Exploded Higher
Live Blog Update #3 Published
Shares of PLTR are up more than $3 a share.
Not only did it just break above its 50-day moving average to the upside, but it’s also still running on a Truist upgrade to a buy rating.
The firm notes that “GenAI adoption could ‘compress the market impact’ of the last four decades of enterprise technology into just the next five to ten years,” says Tip Ranks. With that, the firm believes Palantir holds a “unique market position,” one that is “ideally positioned for increased AI adoption by both governments & enterprises.”
