If You'd Invested $100 in Palantir Stock 3 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today
Key Points Investors are beginning to see Palantir as more than a niche government contractor. Palantir achieved its first $1 billion quarter in the second quarter. Investors should be wary of Palantir's extremely high valuation. 10 stocks we like better than Palantir Technologies › Artificial intelligence (AI) software company Palantir (NASDAQ: PLTR) has a strong case as the most talked-about stock this year. The success of its AI tools amid the current AI boom has made it one of the more high-profile stocks on the market, and its stock price has followed the hype. Its stock is up 143% year to date through Aug. 14, but the surge started way before now. Had you invested $100 into the stock three years ago (with Aug. 14, 2022, as the starting point), your investment would be worth over $1,850. Calling those returns impressive would undoubtedly be an understatement. What has changed with Palantir's business? Palantir's core business hasn't changed over the past three years, but the surrounding perception seemingly has. For a while, many people viewed Palantir as a niche government contractor, but it is now seen as a company whose software can be used for commercial businesses as well. In the second quarter, Palantir achieved its first $1 billion quarter (up 48% year over year), with its U.S. government and U.S. commercial benefits increasing revenue 53% and 93% year over year, respectively. After such an impressive run over the past three years, the one red flag with Palantir's stock is just how expensive it has become. At the time of this writing, the stock is trading at nearly 135 times its sales, which is, to put it lightly, absurd by even the most lax of standards. Palantir has proven it's a great company and leader in its industry, but if you're investing expecting similar returns over the next three years, you could be in for some disappointment. If you're interested in investing in the company, make sure you approach it with a long-term mindset, and mentally prep yourself for the inevitable volatility. Should you invest $1,000 in Palantir Technologies right now?

Target is probably still missing the mark: Opening Bid top takeaway
There will be no shortage of market-moving events this week. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be back in Washington after President Trump met with Vladimir Putin last week. Other European leaders will also be at the White House, namely French President Emmanuel Macron and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. And this meeting coincides with the start of the Fed's Jackson Hole event. Fed officials will do some fly-fishing at a stuffy old lodge in Wyoming. The bulls hope they catch a fat signal on a September rate cut as stocks trade around record highs. The centerpiece of the Jackson Hole meeting will be Jerome Powell's speech on Friday. The Fed chair has used his speech as a clue dropper on rates in the past. Last year, he signaled a rate cut was likely coming soon. The Fed went on to cut rates at its September and December meetings. But it's still a confusing event for traders to gauge. "Powell could pave the road for a 25 basis point cut in September, he could push back on those expectations or he could simply not discuss policy much at all. From a market standpoint, any hint of promise of a rate cut will be welcomed, and push back on rate-cut expectations will likely cause a market decline," Sevens Report Research founder Tom Essaye said. Stock analysis: Chipotle Chipotle (CMG) has only known high growth over the past decade. High growth in terms of store openings, sales, and earnings. That's in large part because of the company's generous portion sizes and messaging of healthy ingredients. Its shares are up 264% in the past 10 years, according to Yahoo Finance data, compared to the S&P 500's (^GSPC) 212% advance and McDonald's (MCD) 224% gain. But now, Chipotle is heading into an interesting five-year period. The company is adding new restaurant technology to drive efficiency. It's expanding into new countries such as Mexico. And it's picking up the pace of new menu offerings. All of this comes as new fast-casual restaurant concepts sprout in Chipotle's backyard. Plus, consumers continue to be cautious about dining out as menu prices rise. "The brands that are winning in this very tough consumer backdrop are the brands that are innovating in a really meaningful way. Innovation at Chipotle has always been very measured, and it will remain a measured process," Chipotle CEO Scott Boatwright told me in a new episode of the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast. "I think we need to move up the speed of innovation." The stock has dropped 27% in 2025 as the company clocked two quarterly traffic declines in a row. Full listen below or watch here. Deep dive: Retailers on the clock Earnings and outlooks this week from Target (TGT), Walmart (WMT), and Home Depot (HD) will give clues on how consumers are navigating the Trump administration's tariffs. They will also go a long way in showing whether big retailers are raising prices because of tariffs and how that may play out for the crucial holiday shopping season. The results could vary widely. Target is slated to report another terrible quarter. Its prices are seen as too high, and the company has had a series of operating missteps. "We see increasing longer-term sales and margin risks for Target given slowing digital sales growth, a lack of scale in digital advertising and third-party marketplace, elevated tariff, pricing and merchandising headwinds, and increasing competitive threats from Walmart and Amazon (AMZN)," BofA analyst Robert Ohmes warned in a note ahead of the results. Ohmes slashed his rating on Target's stock to Underperform from Neutral. Walmart's low-price messaging is stealing market share away from Target. And Home Depot may have gotten a slight tailwind from mortgage rates falling from their highs. Shares of Home Depot and rival Lowe's (LOW) have also begun to price in a September rate cut. Home Depot is up 11% in the past month, and Lowe's has gained 17%. Brian Sozzi is Yahoo Finance's Executive Editor and a member of Yahoo Finance's editorial leadership team.

One person could become the UK's record National Lottery winner as £210m prize up for grabs
After weeks of nobody winning the jackpot, someone could now become the UK's record-breaking National Lottery winner. On Tuesday, August 19, one player could win an estimated jackpot of £210 million, as the the EuroMillions jackpot has reached its cap of 250 million Euros. To win the mega jackpot, one player must match all five main numbers plus the two lucky stars. READ MORE: Met Office provide Storm Erin update as nation prepares to be battered by strong winds and rain after heatwave READ MORE: DWP set to give payments of up to £12,471 to people who qualify If there are no winners on Tuesday, it will now stay at 250 million Euros for a further four draws until it must be won in the fifth draw. In the 'Must Be Won' draw, if no ticket matches all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars, the jackpot prize will roll down into the prize tier where there is at least one winner – likely to be five main numbers and one Lucky Star. A single UK winner would instantly become the nation's largest-ever National Lottery winner. They would knock into second place the anonymous winner of a £195 million prize in 2022. It follows an Irish family syndicate claiming a EuroMillions jackpot worth 250 million euros (£216 million) on June 17. The jackpot had reached the maximum amount on June 6 after rolling over several times. Andy Carter, senior winners' advisor at Allwyn, said: 'Tuesday's jackpot has the ability to transform not just the winner's life, but the life of the friends and family around them. 'So, make sure you get a ticket to be in with a chance of banking Britain's biggest ever win.' To be in with a chance of winning, players must have bought their EuroMillions tickets, either in store or online, by 7:30pm on Tuesday. The draw will take place at around 8:30pm on Tuesday, coming up after the Thunderball which takes place at 8pm.
