Palantir Stock Hits a New High. It Just Keeps Rallying. -- Barrons.com

Dow Jones05-14

By Nate Wolf

Palantir Technologies stock jumped to its highest level on record Tuesday. The software maker has had an impressive run this year.

The company's shares rose 8.1% to $128.10, making it the best-performing stock in the Nasdaq 100 and one of the top performers in the S&P 500, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The company closed above the $300 billion market cap threshold for the first time, too.

Reasons for Tuesday's jump weren't clear. The broader stock market was in rally mode, with the Nasdaq Composite climbing 1.6% on the day. In company news, air taxi manufacturer Archer Aviation disclosed Tuesday that it is working with Palantir.

The move upward continues what is shaping up to be a banner year for the company, which sells operating systems to government and commercial clients.

Palantir stock has leapt 71% this year and a staggering 503% over the past 12 months, buoyed by investor enthusiasm for both artificial intelligence and defense stocks.
