Although it's more substantiated than, say, Groupon's, this valuation still seems crazy to me.

It is difficult to determine how substantiated a valuation is without access to the books of a company and a sense for its future revenue and cashflows. Being a private company, these books are not publicly available.

Given that, it would make sense to withhold judgment pending further data.

I hope you've held onto your shares!

Palantir is one of the few unsung heros of the valley. I've had a few opportunities to hangout there, it's something to see. These guys are sharp.

Are they still throwing cards "everywhere". My only criticism is, it's a guy shop. I don't think any girls work there.

I know of a lot of female Palantir employees. They're mainly working in Palantir Finance, not Palantir Government, and in a variety of roles, not particularly programming. This is pretty standard for Silicon Valley too, unfortunately.

That's good to hear. Admittedly, last time I stopped by was over a year ago at least.

These guys print cash like the Fed. The valuation could be double that and I wouldn't be phased.
