In an unassuming, nondescript Palo Alto office, Palantir Technologies quietly crunched data for everyone from Wall Street traders to national security agencies.
Thank you for this article - thought provoking as always! I also invested in the company because of their innovative technology. However, I divested my shares April 2024 due to ethical concerns - specifically the attacks on hospitals in Gaza. I contacted their investor relations department multiple times for clarification of articles claiming their involvement but was just ignored. No matter how great the tech - Palantir's refusal to respond spoke volumes. Is this the future of Big Tech dominance - worrying if so.
That's a good reason to sell if you are worried about the sustainability of the stock. I think the company is still a bit too opaque personally, so I'm not surprised by the lack of correspondence from the investor relations department. It's still surprising that your requests for a response were ignored.
I think it goes beyond sustainability - attacks on medical facilities are protected under international humanitarian law and killing children a war crime under the Geneva Convention. I also see the company as too opaque - but as a publicly listed company should they at least be made accountable? Interesting questions about who now holds the power to act with impunity
Separately, interesting article in the economist about Musk, and his radicalisation, and some (poor) graphics on is increased activity over the years as well as content.
Would make for an interesting (proper) data visualisation

So is it a buy ? 😉
I don't really stock tip as I'm not regulated and I personally never follow buy and sell recommendations from analysts (especially from sell side).
It was tongue in cheek.
