Palantir stock watch: Fed minutes and year-end flows loom after Friday slide

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 03:19 ET — Market closed

Palantir Technologies (PLTR.O) shares finished down 2.81% on Friday at $188.71, heading into the final trading days of the year on the back foot. Investing.com

The pullback comes as investors navigate a holiday-thinned market where year-end portfolio adjustments can exaggerate moves, especially in high-momentum technology names. Reuters

That matters for Palantir because the stock has been a popular proxy for the “AI” trade — shorthand for artificial intelligence software that learns from data to automate tasks and speed decisions — leaving it sensitive to swings in rate expectations and risk appetite. Reuters+1

On Friday, the stock ranged from $188.62 to $196.35, with volume of about 26.26 million shares, according to Investing.com. Investing.com

Palantir’s 52-week range is $63.40 to $207.52, putting Friday’s close well below its recent peak but far above last year’s lows. Investing.com

U.S. stocks have been hovering near record levels into year-end, with the S&P 500 around 1% from the 7,000 mark in recent sessions, Reuters reported. Reuters

Minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December meeting are due Tuesday. The minutes are a detailed account of policymakers’ debate and are often mined for clues on the interest-rate path. Reuters

“Handicapping how many rate cuts we’re going to get next year is a big thing markets are focused on right now,” Michael Reynolds, vice president of investment strategy at Glenmede, told Reuters. Reuters

Reuters has also flagged investor attention on rotation away from technology shares, with non-tech areas doing better at times as valuations in parts of the market look more moderate. Reuters

The last major company catalyst was in early November, when Palantir lifted its annual revenue forecast again and projected fourth-quarter revenue of $1.327 billion to $1.331 billion on demand for its data-analytics software. Reuters

December trading has been choppy: the stock hit $198.88 at an intramonth high and touched $163.12 at a low, Investing.com data show. Investing.com

Before the next session, traders will watch whether the stock can reclaim the $190 level after slipping below it on Friday. A move back toward $200 would put focus on the $207.52 52-week high. Investing.com

Palantir has not announced a date for its next results. Wall Street Horizon lists an unconfirmed estimate of Monday, Feb. 2, after the market close — meaning results would arrive after the regular U.S. session ends. Wall Street Horizon

Until Palantir sets that date, the stock’s near-term direction is likely to hinge on broader market cues — especially Fed signals and year-end positioning — that can swing sentiment toward AI-linked names. Reuters

  • Sugar Prices Slide on Forecasted Global Surplus and Stronger Production
    April 9, 2026, 2:48 PM EDT. Sugar prices fell sharply, with May New York World Sugar down 1.97% to a one-month low and May London ICE White Sugar dropping 1.87% to a three-week low. The decline follows India's statement ruling out sugar export bans, easing fears of supply diversion to ethanol amid higher crude oil prices. Reports show India's sugar output up 9% year-on-year to 27.12 million metric tons (MMT) and Brazil's production also rising, with the Center-South region crushing more cane for sugar. Despite support from supply disruptions like the Strait of Hormuz closure, global sugar surplus forecasts from agencies including the International Sugar Organization project higher production, pressuring prices. Analysts expect surpluses for 2025-26 to persist, driven by robust output in India, Thailand, and Pakistan.
