Palantir Technologies Inc. has seen a dramatic increase in stock price, nearly 2,500% since its 2021 debut. The stock is up almost 150% this year due to growth in artificial intelligence and strong government ties. Currently, it trades at 245 times forward earnings, making it the highest valued company in the S&P 500. Analysts estimate Palantir must generate $60 billion in the next 12 months to justify its valuation, significantly exceeding projected revenues of $4 billion for fiscal 2025.

Palantir trades at 245 times forward earnings, making it the most richly-valued company in the S&P 500, raising concerns about its high valuation compared to peers.
To justify its valuation, Palantir needs to generate $60 billion over the next year, significantly more than the anticipated revenues of $4 billion for fiscal 2025.
