Veteran fund manager reboots Palantir stock price target
Veteran fund manager reboots Palantir stock price target originally appeared on TheStreet. There's been a lot of debate surrounding artificial intelligence stocks this year. A boom in AI spending, particularly by hyperscalers ramping infrastructure to meet surging research and development of chatbots and agentic AI, led to eye-popping returns for companies like Palantir Technologies, which markets data analytics platforms. However, concern that spending could decelerate has picked up in 2025 because of worry over a tariffs-driven recession, causing many AI stocks like chip-maker Nvidia to the eventual impact of tariffs on recession remains a question mark, there's been little to suggest demand for Palantir's services is slipping. Solid first-quarter earnings results and optimism that trade deals could make tariffs manageable have helped Palantir shares rally 63% this year after a 340% surge in 2024. Palantir's resiliency isn't lost on long-time money manager Chris Versace. Versace, who first picked up shares last year, recently updated his price target as Palantir's stock challenges all-time highs. Investors' interest in Palantir stock swelled after OpenAI's ChatGPT became the fastest app to reach one million users when it was launched in December 2022. ChatGPT's success has spawned the development of rival large language models, including Google's Gemini, and a wave of interest in agentic AI programs that can augment, and in some cases, replace traditional activity is widespread across most industries. Banks are using AI to hedge risks, evaluate loans, and price products. Drugmakers are researching AI's ability to predict drug targets and improve clinical trial outcomes. Manufacturers are using it to boost production and quality. Retailers are using it to forecast demand, manage inventories, and curb theft. The U.S. military is even seeing if AI can be effective on the battlefield. The seemingly boundless use cases — and the ability to profit from them — have many companies and governments turning to Palantir's deep expertise in managing and protecting data to train and run new AI apps. Palantir got its start helping the U.S. government build counterterrorism systems. Its Gotham platform still assists governments in those efforts today. It also markets its Foundry platform to manage, interpret, and report data to large companies across enterprise and cloud networks. And its AI platform (AIP) is sold as a tool for developing AI chatbots and apps. Demand for that platform has been big. In the fourth quarter, Palantir closed a "record-setting number of deals," according to CEO Alex Karp. The momentum continued into the first quarter. Revenue rose 39% year-over year to $884 million. Meanwhile, Palantir's profit has continued to improve as sales have grown. In Q1, its net income was $214 million, translating into adjusted earnings per share of 13 cents. "Our revenue soared 55% year-over-year, while our U.S. commercial revenue expanded 71% year-over-year in the first quarter to surpass a one-billion-dollar annual run rate,' said Karp in Palantir's first-quarter earnings release. 'We are delivering the operating system for the modern enterprise in the era of AI." AI's rapid rise has opened Palantir's products to an increasingly new range of industries, allowing it to diversify its customer base. For example, Bolt Financial, an online checkout platform, recently partnered with Palantir to use AI tools to analyze customer behavior better.

"The result [of the Bolt deal] will be technology that can offer shoppers a customized checkout experience, embedded within retailers' sites and apps, and it is one that will extend to agentic checkout as well," wrote Versace on TheStreet Pro. "We see this as the latest expansion by Palantir into the commercial space, and we are likely to see more of this as AI flows through payment processing and digital shopping applications." Alongside Palantir's deeply embedded government contracts, growing relationships with enterprises should provide Palantir with cross-selling opportunities, further driving sales and profit growth, allowing for increased financial guidance. Palantir is guiding for full-year sales growth of 36%, and U.S. commercial revenue growth of 68%. The chances for Palantir growth to continue accelerating has Versace increasingly optimistic about its shares.

Upcoming Stock Splits This Week (June 9 to June 13)
These are the upcoming stock splits for the week of June 9 to June 13, based on TipRanks' Stock Splits Calendar. A stock split is a corporate maneuver that increases the number of shares outstanding by issuing more shares to existing holders, all while keeping the company's total market value unchanged. This lowers the price per share, often making the stock more affordable and potentially more appealing to retail investors. Confident Investing Starts Here: In contrast, a reverse stock split reduces the number of shares by consolidating them, which raises the price per share without affecting the company's valuation. Companies typically turn to this strategy to meet stock exchange requirements – like Nasdaq's minimum price threshold – and avoid delisting. Whether intended to boost investor interest or maintain compliance with exchange rules, these adjustments often serve as key signals for traders tracking a company's strategic direction. Let's take a look at the upcoming stock splits for the week. Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) – Nektar Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel drug candidates. Following stockholder approval on May 23, the company formalized a 1-for-15 reverse stock split. The split takes effect on June 8, with trading on a split‑adjusted basis beginning June 9. Fangdd Network Group (DUO) – China-based Fangdd is a technology-driven real estate platform. The company confirmed a 16-for-1 reverse share consolidation, effective June 9, aimed at boosting its share price and maintaining compliance with listing standards. Bone Biologics (BBLG) – Bone Biologics develops orthobiologic products for spinal fusion procedures. After gaining shareholder approval on May 30, the company filed for a 1-for-6 reverse stock split, which takes effect on June 10. The goal is to elevate its share price back into compliance with Nasdaq's minimum pricing rules and enhance its appeal to institutional investors. Cero Therapeutics Holdings (CERO) – Cero Therapeutics is a biotech firm developing engineered T-cell immunotherapies for cancer. Following shareholder approval in November and board action on December 25, it enacted a 1-for-100 reverse stock split effective on January 8, consolidating every 100 shares into one. The move aimed to boost the stock above $1.00 and secure compliance with Nasdaq's listing standards. Inuvo, Inc. (INUV) – Inuvo specializes in AI-powered marketing technologies and is gearing up for a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on June 10. The move is designed to lift its share price, restore Nasdaq compliance, and strengthen its financial foundation for future growth. O'Reilly Automotive (ORLY) – O'Reilly Automotive is a specialty retailer of automotive aftermarket parts and accessories. On March 13, the company declared a 15-for-1 forward stock split, with the distribution of additional shares set for June 9 and split-adjusted trading beginning June 10. SaverOne 2014 (SVRE) – Israel-based SaverOne develops driver safety systems that block mobile-device distractions in vehicles. The company executed a 1-for-3 reverse ADS split, effective June 11, adjusting its American Depositary Share ratio to strengthen its Nasdaq standing and enhance market appeal. China Natural Resources, Inc. (CHNR) – China Natural Resources is focused on mining exploration in Inner Mongolia and is working toward picking up Zimbabwe's Williams Minerals lithium mine for up to $1.75 billion. The company executed an 8-for-1 reverse stock split effective June 12 to meet Nasdaq's $1 minimum bid price requirement, converting every eight shares into one to boost its per-share value and comply with listing rules

Who won the Bryce Huff trade between the San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles
Who won the Bryce Huff trade between the San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The San Francisco 49ers agreed on a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles to bring edge rusher Bryce Huff to the Bay Area in exchange for what was initially reported as a "mid-round" draft pick. Advertisement We now officially know the exchange included a conditional fifth-round pick that could turn into a fourth based on Huff's performance with the 49ers. Judging by both teams' situations, you could argue that they both came away winners here. San Francisco was facing a mass exodus of quality defensive players this offseason and needed help on the edge opposite of Nick Bosa. For Philadelphia, they were clearly not in favor of keeping Huff after a letdown season resulted in him being a healthy scratch in the Eagles' Super Bowl win. What do the grades say? Pretty similar. ESPN believes both teams benefitted equally and earned a B+ in the deal. Advertisement On the San Fran side, Seth Walder writes: "This is a pretty reasonable play for San Francisco. As poorly as Huff played last season, there's still plenty to like in his history, and his pass rush win rate remained solid despite his struggles. "Though that shows Huff slowing down, it's still a better-than-average get-off for an edge rusher." The best part of the deal for the 49ers is the cost financially. Huff had restructured his contract with Philly to make this work, allowing San Francisco to just under $8 million for the year. Philadelphia is stuck paying more, but the restructure is much more beneficial than being responsible for his three-year, $51.1 million contract without the player. The Eagles benefit as they get to unload a player who did not meet on-field expectations last season and be rewarded with a high Day 3 draft pick. Advertisement "From 2020 to 2022, Huff recorded a 26% pass rush win rate at edge -- a top-10 number at the position had he qualified ..." Walder continued about Huff's 10-sack season that earned him that contract ahead of last year. "His win rate fell to a career-low 19% (which is still higher than average), but the sacks weren't there (2.5) and his playing time dipped before he missed time in the second half of the season to have wrist surgery." The Eagles still have a loaded roster and this departure shouldn't do too much to their pass rush depth with them bringing back a collection of formidable pieces in Nolan Smith Jr., Azeez Ojulari and Joshua Uche. Plus, Philadelphia gets to save a bit of cap space by shipping off some of Huff's contract. Everything seems even right now, but that's the funny thing about grading trades with over three months until the season starts. Things can happen one way or another to cause drastic reconsideration for the true winner here. Advertisement The Niners are banking on reuniting Huff with defensive coordinator Robert Saleh (his head coach during his career-year with the New York Jets in 2023) will pay major dividends.
