  • Ken Griffin's Citadel Buys Palantir and Robinhood Amid Huge AI Stock Gains
    January 31, 2026, 6:53 AM EST. Billionaire hedge fund manager Ken Griffin's Citadel Advisors purchased shares in Palantir Technologies and Robinhood Markets during Q3, despite both stocks surging by 2,200% and 1,100% respectively since January 2023. Palantir, known for its AI-powered analytics software for enterprises and governments, reported a 63% revenue increase to $1.1 billion and raised its 2025 revenue forecast by 53%, but trades at a steep 96 times sales ratio, making it the priciest S&P 500 stock. Robinhood, a popular platform for younger investors, also attracted Citadel's interest. These moves underline Griffin's bet on continued growth in AI sectors, even with premium valuations, though experts warn of heightened risks tied to such expensive stocks.
