ON Semiconductor, Pfizer, Uber, McDonald's, and many more will report earnings this week. Economic releases will include the April jobs report and purchasing managers index.
Palantir faces a bearish post-earnings setup driven by options market positioning rather than fundamentals. Heavy call open interest and high implied volatility (~90%) suggest significant premium decay and selling pressure after earnings. Technical resistance at $150–$160 and a descending triangle pattern reinforce downside risk, with $130 as a key support level.
I am reiterating Palantir a “buy” with a $224 price target, reflecting 55% upside potential driven by sustained revenue acceleration and unmatched SaaS metrics. PLTR's US Commercial segment is the primary growth engine, with 109% YoY revenue growth in FY25 and management guiding for 115% YoY growth in FY26. Despite a forward PE of 108x (FY26), rapid forward earnings will support multiple contraction in the coming years, as the company is positioned to benefit from growing inference demand.
More than ever, I think Palantir needs to surprise the market in the upcoming earnings release. I believe commercial backlog and company-wide RPO momentum are the key drivers needed to lift Street revenue models and support Palantir's rerating. I said rerating, despite the fact that the stock is still trading at 105x forward earnings. The multiple is pressured by the SaaSpocalypse and other risks that I discuss here.
