Probably should have sold in the $120s. There was no way that was gonna last. The company metrics didn't back up the price. I didn't have anywhere near what you did but I've sold almost half my position. I'm honestly considering dumping the rest and just sitting on the money or parking it in an ETF like VTI.

In hindsight yeah but I was overcome by greed. Hope the Market can give us some relief this week. I just want to catch the next workday, salesforce etc. You know companies enterprises love to us before the become so

I think its after hours on Thursday. I'm hopeful they have some good news on Neutron's development and maybe a new contract or 2 (since MDA didnt reorder).
Oh shoot just double checked and you're right - thx. Really hope they knock it out the park. About 25% of my shares go long term cap gains tax and I'd like to reduce my holdings at a reduced tax rate.

Ideally wit the price back above $30. It's all going to come down to guidance and Neuton though.

IWM looks super weak right now if it cant stay above 217.

Personally, I've gone to mostly safer investments in my 401k since the beginning of the year. I'm willing to sacrifice reward for lower risk. I'm waiting at least till the end of Q2 to rebalance it. I know it's frown upon to make changes like that but it's just my opinion.

Listening to Adam Spice's comments in one of his last conferences, they havent found a good acquisition target in their budget. Its possible they may do an offering if they need more money to buy something. That question may come up on the conference call... That would bring the stock down.

Just sold some additioanl shares this morning to secure some profit.

Since inauguration probably have sold around 50 shares of Palantir. Cost basis is $16.

You think it's about to reverse back up?
My cost basis about $20

I'm holding Palantir long term and I'm buying whenever there's a dip like this because IMO the US Government is holding hands with this company for the foreseeable future and the commercial is slowly coming into fruition.

Karp is wacky at times but I trust his vision.

The stock had like a decade of growth easy priced into it. It was trading on irrational momentum not inherent company value.

I mean I'm still holding some but I've sold enough already to have gotten back my initial investment and to have made a modest profit. I'll keep maybe 100 shares but I'm not expecting the stock to do much for a while.

I hope you took profits and didn't just hold for the sake of holding. When companies get overvalued even if you like them probably best to make your money on it.

I got out ...don't mind if it keeps tanking so I can rebuy but I have made way too much money to stay as it's falling. I am more excited about their work with Enterprise customers. Would love to see drop down to the 40's so I can load up again

Same here. I have been trying keep my holdings long enough to qualify for long term cap gains taxes, but that might have been a been short sighted approach in hindsight
