Palantir's 150% Surge Fuels Debate: Opportunity or Overvaluation?
28 Oct
Summary
- Palantir's stock climbed nearly 150% in 2025
- Company signed $7B in contracts, $4B in IDIQ agreements
- Analysts have mixed views on the stock's valuation
As of October 28th, 2025, Palantir Technologies (PLTR) has been making headlines with its remarkable stock performance and growing business. The company's share price has climbed nearly 150% so far this year, fueled by robust demand for its artificial intelligence software and a string of new government contracts.
Palantir's AI Platform, which serves both corporate and government clients, has been the primary driver of its growth. The company recently signed a new defense deal with Poland, adding to its impressive $7 billion in existing contracts and another $4 billion in IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity) agreements.
However, the stock's soaring valuation has left many investors on edge. While Piper Sandler has raised its target price for Palantir to $201, citing a strong outlook, other analysts worry that the rally may have run too far. Wall Street's average target price currently sits at $157.65, suggesting potential downside.
As Palantir prepares to report its third-quarter results, the company finds itself in a unique position – balancing momentum and uncertainty in equal measure. Investors will be closely watching to see if Palantir can continue its impressive growth trajectory and justify its lofty valuation.
