T. Rowe Price ETF Assets Hit $16.2B in Q2 on Strong Flows
T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (TROW) reported $2.5 billion in net flows into its ETF products during the second quarter, bringing total ETF assets under management to $16.2 billion as of June 30, according to a transcript of the company's earnings call Friday. The Baltimore-based asset manager saw over $6 billion in inflows to its ETF products during the first half of 2025, CEO Rob Sharps said during the company's earnings call, according to the company-provided transcript. Eleven of the firm's ETFs now hold more than $500 million in assets under management. T. Rowe Price Growth Strategy The ETF growth comes as T. Rowe Price builds out its product lineup, with the company filing eight new strategies Friday morning, according to Sharps, who said the firm expects "momentum to continue to build as the ETF suite builds track record, scales and gets platform placement." The filings include four equity and four fixed-income products, said Eric Veiel, head of global investments and chief investment officer. The equity lineup includes zero-fee active core U.S. equity and international equity ETFs targeting lower price points where the firm previously lacked presence, while the fixed-income products round out the municipal suite and add a multi-sector income ETF. Invest in Gold Thor Metals Group: Best Overall Gold IRA Priority Gold: Up to $15k in Free Silver + Zero Account Fees on Qualifying Purchase American Hartford Gold: #1 Precious Metals Dealer in the Nation "Two of the equity strategies that we launched—at zero price active core US equity ETF and the zero price active core international equity ETF—specifically come in at lower price points, targeting a part of the market where we have not been active, which we think will be incremental new business for us," Veiel said during the earnings call. Distribution Expansion Chief Financial Officer Jen Dardis said the ETF growth represents a combination of existing clients switching from mutual funds and new investors entering through channels where traditional mutual funds faced distribution challenges. Industry data suggest approximately 25% of ETF flows come from clients moving over time and being recaptured in ETF format, she noted. The firm currently has 24 ETF offerings as of June 30, with many gaining platform placements where the company lacks mutual fund distribution agreements, said Sharps. "I also know that we have platform placements of many of our ETFs with strategies that aren't placed—where we don't have placement with the mutual funds," Sharps said. "So there are certain—whether it's broker dealers or platforms—where we're getting ETF placement, where historically, they've not distributed our funds." For the quarter ended June 30, T. Rowe Price reported total assets under management of $1.68 trillion, up from $1.63 trillion in the prior quarter, according to a statement. Net revenues reached $1.73 billion, compared to $1.76 billion in the second quarter of | © Copyright 2025 All rights reserved Sign in to access your portfolio

Palantir Stock Is Up 478% in a Year. Here's Why There's Still More Room to Run.
Key Points Palantir Technologies now ranks in the top 25 of the most valuable companies in the world. Its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) is wildly popular for commercial and government clients. 10 stocks we like better than Palantir Technologies › There are probably few investors out there who are more satisfied than those who bought Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) stock early in its run. The artificial intelligence (AI) company is blowing other stocks out of the water these days, with its stock up 478% in the last year and more than doubling in 2025. Palantir is now one of the world's top 25 most valuable companies, ahead of such blue chip names as Procter & Gamble and Bank of America. Palantir's run is fueled by the adaptation of its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) by government and commercial clients, fueling dramatic growth in both revenue and earnings. And with Palantir set to report second-quarter earnings on Aug. 4, there are plenty of reasons to believe that this run is far from over. How Palantir is making money Palantir already had two AI-powered platforms. Its Gotham platform is prized by governments and defense agencies to gather information from multiple sources, identify targets, and make real-time assessments to provide insights about battlefield situations. Palantir is recognized for helping the U.S. military track down 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden in 2011. Then you have the Foundry platform used by Palantir's commercial clients. Foundry helps clients manage supply chains and inventory, automate workflows, and optimize operations. The AIP platform made both of these powerful tools better and easier to use because AIP allows users to make detailed queries, and then it generates responses using generative AI. And the results are evident in the massive gains the company is seeing: Since rolling out AIP in April 2023, Palantir's revenues have gone through the roof. Year Revenue Profit (Loss) Earnings per Share 2021 $1.54 billion ($520.3 million) ($0.27) 2022 $1.90 billion ($161.2 million) ($0.18) 2023 $2.22 billion $217.3 million $0.10 2024 $2.86 billion $467.9 million $0.21 2025 (projected) $3.90 billion Image source: Palantir Technologies. In the first quarter of 2025, the company reported revenue of $884 million, up 39% from a year ago. U.S. commercial revenue jumped 71% from a year ago to $255 million, and U.S. government revenue was up 45% from a year ago to $373 million. The stock is by far outperforming the biggest companies on the planet, as well as the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite. What can we expect from Palantir next? The second quarter is expected to be another blowout quarter. The company is continuing to reel in work, including contracts with the Navy to improve ship production and fleet readiness and a partnership with Accenture (NYSE: ACN) to develop AI solutions for federal agencies. On the commercial side, Palantir signed a deal with The Nuclear Company to develop and modernize nuclear power plants, as well as an agreement with The Joint Commission to use AI to manage accreditation and certification standards at hospitals and healthcare organizations. Palantir issued guidance for second-quarter revenue of $934 million to $938 million -- the midpoint of that would be a 38% increase from Q2 2024. Its full-year guidance is now in a range from $3.89 billion to $3.902 billion. The main argument for investing in Palantir today, of course, is the valuation. With a trailing price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 682 and a forward P/E of 269, Palantir is ungodly expensive. But that's not a deal-breaker for me. I keep remembering that Amazon had a P/E of more than 1,000 back in 2013 before people realized how important cloud computing and its Amazon Web Services platform would be. I think Palantir is like Amazon -- people are just starting to appreciate that Palantir is a transformative company that is changing the world and how businesses and governments operate. And when it reports earnings on Aug. 4, I think you're going to continue to see the stock soar. How to invest in Palantir I would never recommend that someone overinvest in a stock or put their entire nest egg into Palantir. But I do think it's a company that should be part of a portfolio. If you are worried about the inherent volatility that comes with a stock that's growing as quickly as Palantir (and has such a crazy valuation), I recommend using a dollar-cost averaging strategy to establish your position over time. Just be sure never to be overextended on any one stock -- even one as compelling as Palantir. Should you buy stock in Palantir Technologies right now?
