Palantir (PLTR) slips ~5.7% as new marketing & smart‑city deals land — What’s moving the stock today (Nov. 6, 2025)

Palantir (PLTR) Stock Soars on AI Hype – Is It a Bubble or the Next Tech Giant?

6 November 2025

Updated Nov. 6, 2025 — 16:47 UTC

Live price (intraday)
As of 16:47 UTC, Palantir shares trade at $177.24, roughly ‑5.7% on the day, after opening at $188.00 and ranging between $176.97–$190.94 so far.

Key takeaways

PLTR is lower today as investors continue to digest this week’s blowout Q3 results alongside valuation worries that surfaced after earnings. Reuters notes Palantir guided Q4 revenue to $1.327–$1.331B and lifted full‑year sales to $4.396–$4.40B following a 63% Y/Y Q3 revenue jump to $1.18B. ^[1]
Fresh commercial catalysts today (Nov. 6):
- Palantir and Stagwell (STGW) unveiled an AI marketing platform built on Foundry; Stagwell shares spiked on the news. ^[2]
- Palantir and Valoriza (Spain) announced a partnership to use AIP/Foundry to unify IoT data and optimize waste and urban services. ^[3]
Why the stock is still under pressure: valuation remains the swing factor. Reuters highlighted forward P/E multiples above 200x and noted renewed bearish chatter earlier this week after Michael Burry’s short bet. ^[4]
Background: Independent coverage this week also emphasized record metrics (U.S. commercial +121% Y/Y) and a third straight guidance hike. ^[5]

What happened today (Nov. 6)

1) Two partnership headlines hit before and during the session

Marketing tech with Stagwell: Palantir and Stagwell announced an “industry‑first” AI and data platform that pairs Palantir Foundry with Stagwell’s Code and Theory orchestration layer and The Marketing Cloud’s datasets. The companies say the MVP already has early client adoption via Stagwell’s Assembly, with broader rollout planned. Stagwell shares jumped in morning trade on the announcement. ^[6]
Smart‑city/urban services with Valoriza (Spain): A separate release detailed use of Palantir AIP and Foundry to unify real‑time data from IoT waste containers, vehicle fleets, city infrastructure, and workforce systems to improve route efficiency and service quality. The announcement crossed at 06:59 ET. ^[7]

2) Price action in context

Today’s decline extends the post‑earnings valuation shake‑out seen since Tuesday despite significant beats and a strong outlook. Reuters reported Palantir’s Q4 guide above estimates and reiterated concerns from some market participants about the implied slowdown from ~63% Q3 growth to ~61% in Q4 and still‑lofty multiples. ^[8]

Earnings & outlook recap (this week)

Q3 2025: Revenue $1.18B (+63% Y/Y); adjusted EPS $0.21; U.S. commercial +121% Y/Y to $397M. ^[9]
Guidance:Q4 revenue $1.327–$1.331B; FY25 revenue $4.396–$4.40B (third straight raise). ^[10]

Those headline numbers underpin the long‑term bull case, but the valuation overhang is shaping intraday moves. Reuters this week also flagged a forward P/E above 200x, amplifying sensitivity to any hint of deceleration. ^[11]

Sentiment & setup

Valuation vs. momentum: Tuesday’s drop came even as results beat across the board, with reports of high‑profile short positions (e.g., Michael Burry) adding to near‑term volatility. ^[12]
Commercial expansion narrative: Today’s Stagwell and Valoriza announcements broaden the story beyond defense and government into marketing tech and smart‑city operations, reinforcing Palantir’s push to scale AIP across industries. ^[13]

What to watch next

Deal momentum: Watch for additional large commercial wins following this week’s announcements and any follow‑through metrics on AIP adoption. (Today’s Stagwell release mentions MVP adoption already in market.) ^[14]
Valuation tolerance: If multiples remain elevated, guidance “beats” may need to stay sizable to support the share price—something multiple outlets flagged this week. ^[15]
Counterparty impact: Stagwell’s outsized move today (shares +30% in morning trading) could keep attention on the marketing platform’s revenue potential for Palantir. ^[16]

Today’s headlines at a glance (Nov. 6, 2025)

Palantir & Stagwell launch AI marketing platform; MVP live with early client use. ^[17]
Palantir & Valoriza partner to use AIP/Foundry across Spanish urban/waste operations; unify IoT and operations data. ^[18]
STGW stock pops on partnership (morning move reported around +30%). ^[19]
PLTR trades lower intraday as post‑earnings valuation debate continues. (Q3 beat, Q4 guide above estimates earlier this week.) ^[20]

Bottom line

Palantir is executing (big beats, higher guidance) and broadening into new verticals (marketing tech, smart‑city), but valuation is the fulcrum for near‑term price action. Today’s fresh partnerships expand the commercial TAM narrative, even as shares backtrack intraday while the market recalibrates what level of growth is “enough” at Palantir’s multiples. ^[21]

Intel Stock Five Years From Now: Turnaround Momentum With Nvidia, SoftBank, and Government Backing
November 6, 2025, 4:30 PM EST. Recent coverage suggests Intel's turnaround is gaining traction as it expands partnerships with Nvidia, SoftBank, and even garners government support. The Motley Fool discussion highlights how these alliances could shape Intel's technology roadmap, capacity expansion, and competitive standing against peers. The video notes stock price data from Nov. 3, 2025, and acknowledges analysts' cautious optimism about mid- to long-term earnings visibility amid capital-intensive chip cycles. Investors should weigh regulatory and geopolitical risk, Nvidia exposure, and the pace of manufacturing progress at Intel's fabs. While near-term volatility remains, a constructive trajectory could unlock upside if execution meets milestones on AI accelerators, process node upgrades, and client wins. As always, individual results will depend on execution, market demand, and macro conditions.
Stocks Slip as Nasdaq Tests 200-Hour MA; S&P Breaks Below Key Level
November 6, 2025, 4:28 PM EST. US equity indices extended losses as the NASDAQ falls about -1.62% and the S&P 500 trades near -1%. The NASDAQ nears its 200-hour moving average around 23,046.40, with a daily low near 23,099.23. The 50% retracement of the October rally sits at 23,094, just above the day's low. The S&P 500 has already breached its 200-hour moving average at 6,742.26, and staying below could keep sellers in control. Price is also testing below the 50% midpoint of the move from the October low, with a low of 6,735.56 and current around 6,731. Continued momentum suggests further downside toward nearby support levels.
Why The Stock Market Fell Today: AI Bubble Fears, Jobs Slump, and Shutdown Woes
November 6, 2025, 4:26 PM EST. Stocks fell as investors weigh growing AI concerns and a pullback in semiconductors. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 traded in the red, pressured by AMD, QCOM, and KLAC. Traders also faced fresh headwinds from the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 37th day. On the labor front, Challenger, Gray & Christmas reported October job cuts of 153,047-the highest for October in over 20 years-and about 1.09 million jobs trimmed year-to-date, the worst showing since 2020. The warehousing sector bore the brunt, highlighted by layoffs at Amazon and UPS. Market-watchers will be watching the macro calendar for new data and guidance on whether the pullback is a temporary pause or the start of a broader trend.
December 26th EH Options Open: $13.50 Put Offers ~18% Discount with 78% Chance to Expire Worthless
November 6, 2025, 4:24 PM EST. Investors in EHang Holdings (EH) gained access to the new December 26th expiration options. The standout is the $13.50 put, currently bid at 5 cents. Selling to open locks in a purchase at $13.50, while collecting the premium, yielding a cost basis near $13.45 before commissions. With EH trading around $16.55, the strike represents an approximate 18% discount (putting the option out-of-the-money). The model assigns about 78% odds the contract expires worthless, yielding about 0.37% return on cash (≈ 2.70% annualized) via the YieldBoost metric. Implied volatility sits near 117%, compared with about 63% trailing volatility. StockOptionsChannel will continue tracking the odds and publish updates on the contract page.
PCT December 26th Options Begin Trading; YieldBoost Highlights $7.50 Put
November 6, 2025, 4:22 PM EST. Investors in PureCycle Technologies (PCT) saw December 26th options begin trading. The standout is the $7.50 put, currently bid around $0.05. Selling to open could lock in a cost basis of about $7.45 if assigned, offering a potential alternative to buying PCT at around $9.94 today. Because the strike sits roughly 25% below the current price, the put ends out-of-the-money, with about a 79% chance it expires worthless. YieldBoost projects that scenario would return about 0.67% on cash, or ~4.87% annualized. Implied volatility on the contract is extremely high at ~186% versus ~76% trailing volatility. StockOptionsChannel plans to track the odds and publish charts on the contract page.
