Palantir (PLTR) Edges Lower on Nov. 7 as Insider Sale Surfaces—Analysts Lift Targets After Blowout Q3

Palantir Stock Today (Nov. 7, 2025): PLTR Ends Week Higher as New Partnerships With Stagwell and Valoriza Offset AI-Sector Jitters

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
    These figures reflect LSEG data via Reuters. [7]

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. [8]

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. [9]


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. [10]


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. [11]
  • 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. [12]
  • Sector sentiment: With AI leaders driving index performance, macro stories about AI spending and valuations can move PLTR even absent company‑specific news. [13]

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.

Stock Market Today

  • Analysts Downgrade Kinetik Holdings as 2026 Revenue and EPS Outlook Weakens (NYSE: KNTK)
    November 8, 2025, 7:50 AM EST. Analysts covering Kinetik Holdings (NYSE:KNTK) have tempered their outlook, delivering a substantive forecast downgrade for next year. The consensus now calls for 2026 revenues of US$2.0b, about 19% above the trailing year but below prior hopes of US$2.4b, and a leap in statutory EPS to US$2.11 (up 522%). Previously, forecasts envisioned US$2.4b in revenue and EPS of US$2.17 for 2026. The shift signals weaker momentum for Kinetik Holdings and a material drop in revenues expectations, even as the stock is still forecast to outpace the broader industry. Growth to end 2026 is seen at about 15% annualized, versus a 5-year history of 22%, with industry peers averaging ~3.1% growth. The takeaway: a more wary outlook and potential headwinds ahead, including shrinking margins.
  • Magnachip Semiconductor (MX) Slumps 28% in a Month: Low P/S Valuation Amid Slowing Revenue
    November 8, 2025, 7:48 AM EST. Magnachip Semiconductor (MX) has wiped out much of its gains, dropping 28% in the last 30 days and 42% over the year, underscoring a rough patch for shareholders. The stock's P/S ratio sits near 0.3x, cheaply valued relative to a broader U.S. semiconductor universe where P/S runs well above 4.5x. Yet the low multiple appears to reflect weak revenue growth, not a hidden bargain. The company posted 16% revenue growth last year, but three-year revenue has fallen about 47%, and analysts expect next year to drop another 21% even as the industry grows about 37%. While the P/S looks compelling against peers, there's little evidence of a near-term rebound if revenue trends worsen.
  • Excelerate Energy (EE) Beats Q Results; 2026 Revenue/EPS Forecasts Rise Sharply
    November 8, 2025, 7:46 AM EST. Excelerate Energy, Inc. (NYSE: EE) beat analyst expectations with quarterly results, delivering revenue US$391m and EPS US$0.43, well ahead of consensus by 44% and 39%. In the post-earnings view, analysts anticipate a solid path into 2026, with consensus revenue of US$1.49b, up about 26% year over year, and EPS US$1.90, up roughly 48%. Before the print, forecasts stood at US$1.46b revenue and US$1.80 EPS for 2026. Despite upgrades, the average price target remains US$33.58, with a wide but not extreme range from US$26 to US$46. The outlook suggests 20% annualized revenue growth through 2026, reversing the -3.4% decline of the prior five years, though industry peers show modest growth at about 3.1%.
  • DXC Technology's Solid Earnings Appear Underestimated as Negative Accruals Signal Strong Free Cash Flow
    November 8, 2025, 7:44 AM EST. DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC) reported earnings that the market barely rewarded, but a closer look shows cash generation outpaced statutory profit. The analysis highlights a negative accrual ratio of -0.12 for the year to September 2025, meaning free cash flow (FCF) topped reported profit: US$1.1B of FCF versus US$373.0M of profit. The stronger cash conversion is partly due to unusual items that trimmed reported earnings. If those one-offs do not repeat, management's profit may rebound while cash generation remains robust. The takeaway is that unusual items can obscure earnings quality, and investors should weigh the FCF signal when evaluating DXC's trajectory. In short, the cash story supports a more constructive view than the headline profit suggests.
  • Securitas Valuation: Modest Upside as Growth Keeps Margin Recovery in Focus
    November 8, 2025, 7:18 AM EST. Market patience is paying off for Securitas (OM:SECU B) as the stock advances again, with 3% weekly return and 6% YTD progress. The company shows steady growth in net income and revenue, supporting a momentum build and a 73.3% total shareholder return over three years. Analyst narratives peg a near fair value slightly above the current price, with a small undervalued margin around 1.5%. The bear case centers on persistent challenges in growth segments or portfolio exits. Securitas' strategy focuses on technology and data-driven security solutions to win premium, higher-margin contracts amid rising urbanization and global wealth. If you're assessing risks and upside, the valuation outlook remains cautiously positive, with upside potential if margin recovery sustains.
