NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 16:20 ET — After-hours
- Palantir shares were last down 1.8% in after-hours trading at $180.80.
- U.S. stocks finished little changed as investors parsed Federal Reserve meeting minutes in holiday-thin trade.
- Surf Air Mobility said it expanded its work with Palantir to power SurfOS using Palantir’s AIP and Foundry platforms.
Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR) shares fell $3.38, or 1.8%, to $180.80 in after-hours trading on Tuesday. The stock opened at $184.20 and traded between $185.11 and $180.60 during the session, according to market data.
The slide came as Wall Street closed little changed in choppy year-end trading, with investors digesting minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December meeting, a detailed record of the central bank’s rate debate, Reuters reported. Meta Platforms gained after it said it would buy AI startup Manus, while Apple and Nvidia were subdued, the report said.
That matters now because Palantir has traded like a high-growth, rate-sensitive name. When bond yields firm and traders trim risk, the pressure often lands first on stocks priced for strong future growth.
Palantir sells software used to pull together large data sets and run analytics for governments and companies, including products aimed at deploying generative AI in business workflows. The stock’s valuation and momentum profile can amplify moves during thin holiday sessions.
On the company-specific front, Surf Air Mobility said it has expanded its relationship with Palantir to support the commercial rollout of SurfOS in 2026, using Palantir’s AIP and Foundry platforms. “This is the next chapter of our partnership with Surf Air,” Ted Mabrey, Palantir’s global head of commercial, said.

AIP is Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform, while Foundry is its data-integration system used to connect and organize information across departments. Surf Air said SurfOS is aimed at the “Part 135” segment — U.S. aviation rules that cover commuter and on-demand operators — and is designed to stitch together a fragmented operating ecosystem.

Palantir also stayed in the spotlight this week on the people-and-culture front. Investopedia reported the company’s “Meritocracy Fellowship,” a program pitched as an alternative path into the workforce for high school graduates, while noting Palantir shares have climbed about 150% in 2025.

For traders, the question into the final days of the year is whether macro forces keep driving the tape. A stock that has run hard in 2025 can be vulnerable to profit-taking when liquidity is thin and investors rebalance portfolios.
The next major policy waypoint is already on the calendar. The Federal Reserve has scheduled its next rate-setting meeting for Jan. 27-28.
Technicians will be watching whether Palantir can stabilize around the $180 area after Tuesday’s pullback toward the day’s lows. A break below recent support can draw momentum sellers, while a quick rebound can bring dip-buyers back.
Investors will also look ahead to the next quarterly results for confirmation that Palantir is sustaining demand across commercial and government customers. Wall Street Horizon’s earnings calendar lists Palantir’s next report as expected around Feb. 2, though it flags the date as unconfirmed.
