Updated: Friday, November 7, 2025
Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) finished Friday at $177.93, up +1.65% on the day, recovering from sharp midweek volatility tied to a broader pullback in artificial‑intelligence names. Intraday, PLTR traded between $168.91 and $178.70 on heavy volume (~74.0M). The rebound followed a flurry of corporate headlines on Nov. 6–7, including two new commercial partnerships and high‑profile remarks from CEO Alex Karp. 1
Key headlines from Nov. 6–7, 2025
1) Stagwell x Palantir: New AI‑marketing platform
On Nov. 6, Palantir and Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW) unveiled a partnership to build an AI‑driven marketing platform that pairs Palantir Foundry with Stagwell’s Code and Theory orchestration layer and The Marketing Cloud data stack. The goal: give enterprise teams a single hub to segment audiences, automate campaigns, and protect data with differential privacy. Stagwell CEO Mark Penn called it “the holy grail of marketing,” while Palantir CEO Alex Karp said the software “supercharges the speed of metrics collection.” 2
Fox Business separately highlighted the deal and reiterated that the platform aims to let local managers run data‑driven campaigns using natural‑language prompts—underscoring Palantir’s push to operationalize AI across line‑of‑business users. 3
2) Valoriza (Spain) selects Palantir AIP for urban services
Also on Nov. 6, Valoriza, a leading Spanish environmental services firm, announced it will use Palantir AIP and Foundry to unify IoT and operational data across waste‑management fleets, city infrastructure, and workforce systems to optimize routes, lower emissions, and scale new digital services. The collaboration expands Palantir’s EU municipal footprint in smart‑city and sustainability use cases. 4
3) CEO Alex Karp’s media remarks keep valuation debate in focus
In a Nov. 6 appearance on The Axios Show, Karp argued that Wall Street models miss the company’s long‑term product strength—calling Palantir “baller” while acknowledging a week‑long share‑price pullback after earnings. Axios noted the stock’s massive 12‑month run and a valuation that remains far above typical tech multiples, keeping the conversation centered on durability of growth vs. premium pricing. 5
Price action: What changed today
PLTR’s +1.65% gain on Friday followed a week when AI leaders swung lower amid concerns that the 2025 AI rally had outpaced fundamentals. Reuters reported that this “AI wobble” raised questions about the market’s reliance on tech heavyweights, with Palantir among the closely watched names. That macro tone improved into the U.S. close, helping PLTR finish higher despite early weakness. 6
By the numbers (Nov. 7 close):
- Close: $177.93 (+1.65%)
- Range: $168.91 – $178.70
- Prev. close: $175.05
- Volume: ~73,989,654

Why investors cared about the Nov. 6–7 headlines
Commercial momentum beyond defense
The Stagwell and Valoriza announcements showcase Palantir’s go‑to‑market strategy outside of defense and national security: embedding AIP/Foundry into verticalized platforms (marketing, urban services) with partners that already have domain expertise and distribution. For bulls, these are proof points that Palantir’s AI stack is moving from pilots to scaled, revenue‑bearing deployments in mainstream industries. 2
Valuation still front‑and‑center
Karp’s Axios remarks landed the same week Palantir posted another beat‑and‑raise quarter and guided Q4 revenue above consensus, but investors remain sensitive to premium multiples after a big 12‑month run. Reuters noted Palantir’s forward P/E far above mega‑cap tech, reinforcing why the stock can be volatile around macro and sector headlines even when fundamentals trend higher. 7
Context from earlier in the week
On Nov. 3, Palantir raised full‑year guidance and forecast Q4 revenue of $1.327–$1.331B, above Street estimates, with Q3 revenue up ~63% YoY and adjusted EPS ahead of expectations. Despite the beat, multiple outlets observed a valuation‑driven pullback in AI stocks, contributing to PLTR’s midweek slide before Friday’s rebound. 7
What to watch next
- Execution on the Stagwell platform: Look for customer adoption milestones and revenue contribution as the marketing suite rolls out across the Stagwell network in the coming months. 2
- European municipal traction: Any KPIs from Valoriza’s deployment (route efficiency, emissions, service quality) could support a broader smart‑city pipeline for Palantir in the EU. 4
- Sector sentiment: With AI leaders driving index performance, macro stories about AI spending and valuations can move PLTR even absent company‑specific news. 6
Bottom line
For Nov. 7, 2025, Palantir stock closed higher as two new partnerships (Stagwell and Valoriza) underscored expanding commercial use cases, helping offset a broader AI‑sector shakeout. The setup into next week hinges on whether investors prioritize execution and pipeline—supported by above‑consensus Q4 guidance—or continue to focus on valuation sensitivity amid shifting macro headlines. 2
