The stock's recent surge was fueled by an Overweight rating from Piper Sandler with a $170 price target and bullish predictions from analysts, including Jim Cramer. Despite a nearly 500% rise over the past year, the average analyst consensus remains a Sell with a target near $81. Palantir is set to report quarterly earnings on August 4, with expectations of 13.8 cents EPS on $939.71 million revenue. Shares of **Palantir Technologies Inc** PLTR are trading flat Monday morning as investors digest a week that saw the stock hit a new all-time high. The data analytics firm’s stock capped a week of major gains on Friday, closing at a record high after hitting $160.39 intraday. **What To Know:** The recent rally was supercharged Friday by a new Overweight rating from Piper Sandler, which initiated coverage with a bullish $170 price target. This optimism was amplified by CNBC's **Jim Cramer**, who, after seeing the stock slice through the $150 mark “like a knife through butter,” predicted its “next stop” would be $200. This follows continued bullishness from Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, who sees Palantir on a “golden path to become an AI stalwart.” Underpinning the momentum are recent business developments. Last week, the **U.S. Army** awarded the Anduril-Palantir team a contract for a next-generation command and control prototype, with Palantir's share estimated at $30 million. The company also recently launched a strategic alliance with **Deloitte** to accelerate enterprise AI adoption. The stock's meteoric rise has been remarkable, with shares soaring nearly 500% in the last year. However, despite the high-profile endorsements and contract wins, the broader analyst consensus remains a Sell with an average price target near $81. Palantir is meanwhile scheduled to report its quarterly earnings next Monday, August 4, where Wall Street analysts are looking for EPS of 13.8 cents on revenue of $939.71 million. **Benzinga Edge Rankings:** According to Benzinga Edge stock rankings, which provide scores to identify a stock’s strengths and weaknesses, Palantir scores exceptionally high on key factors.
