Today we will be covering...

  • Today, we will examine Palantir (PLTR).

Palantir (PLTR) – Long-Term Cycle Analysis

  • $PLTR ( ▼ 0.17% ) has been a stellar performer, not without controversies among investors.

  • Core Business: Palantir Technologies builds software platforms for big data analytics, integrating and analyzing vast datasets to empower data-driven decisions and operations.

  • Key Products: Includes Gotham (for government/intelligence pattern detection), Foundry (central data operating system for commercial enterprises), Apollo (deployment management), and AIP (AI platform transforming data for LLMs and agents).

  • Main Customers: Serves government agencies (defense, intelligence, counterterrorism) and commercial sectors (healthcare, finance, manufacturing), with growing emphasis on AI applications.

  • PLTR has bounced strongly, but the weekly chart cycle composite suggests this is just a bounce and the trend should be down.

  • See my X post below for the analysis of the daily chart cycle composite.

BraVoCycles on X

  • If you are interested in financial markets, you are missing out by not following me on X, as I do not have enough space in the newsletter to post all my research, which I try to share on X. Additionally, I frequently post important real-time updates between newsletters.

What’s Next for the Stock Market?

  • The post-FOMC profit taking continued. I remarked a week ago in the newsletter or on X that there may be some “sell the news.” 

  • If it continues much longer, it will start to raise some yellow flags.

  • The bond yields are firm, not budging. . .
