Palantir Technologies Inc PLTR has surged over 40% in the past month, 266% YTD, propelled by a series of high-profile partnerships with industry giants like Microsoft Corp, Amazon.com Inc AMZN, and Rio Tinto PLC RIO.
The data analytics and AI powerhouse has set a new 52-week high at $63.39, with investors riding the wave of excitement as Palantir’s collaborations continue to expand its footprint across the mining, defense, and cloud computing sectors.
But with a staggering 300x earnings valuation, Wall Street analysts remain cautious, warning of a potential 37% downside, with a price target around $38.67.

The latest rally, though impressive, has led PLTR stock into overbought territory, with an RSI of 84.62 signaling potential for a pullback.
Powerhouse Partnerships Are Fueling Growth
PLTR stock’s 40% surge the past month isn’t just momentum—it’s backed by strategic partnerships. Last week, Palantir renewed its multi-year deal with Rio Tinto, extending the mining giant’s access to its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) for another four years.
This adds to Palantir’s arsenal of strategic alliances, including collaborations with Microsoft and Amazon, where Palantir’s AI tools are being integrated into Microsoft’s Azure for U.S. defense needs and Amazon Web Services for government AI applications.
PLTR Stock Chart Strongly Bullish, But Valuation Is Lofty
Meanwhile, PLTR stock is on fire, trading well above its key moving averages, which keeps the bulls in play. Yet, with a P/E ratio around 300x, analysts are questioning the sustainability of this AI-fueled growth.
Investors might want to enjoy the ride but keep their eyes on the potential for a pullback as Palantir’s next moves unfold.
