What happened
Palantir (PLTR) stock rose 5.5% to $169.20 on Monday as AI stocks rebounded from a sharp selloff, with the market rally lifting the software maker after its near-10% Thursday drop. It had fallen almost 10% on Thursday, when a post-election AI selloff and worries about slowing contract growth hit tech stocks. The business itself is growing fast: sales rose 96% from a year earlier to $2.31 billion, and the company raised its full-year sales forecast (guidance) to about $8.53 billion.
Why it matters
Palantir's swings show how closely AI-related stocks are moving together right now. A rebound in the wider market, with the Nasdaq up 2.7% on Monday, helped lift it after Thursday's drop. At the same time, its sales to U.S. companies passed sales to the U.S. government for the first time, at $984 million versus $953 million.
