- An opinion piece on Yahoo Finance urges investors to avoid Palantir, grouping it with C3.ai and BigBear.ai as poor buys now.
- The critique cites extreme valuation metrics for Palantir of roughly 267 times forward earnings and 126 times sales, based on YCharts data.
- The author forecasts muted returns over the next few years, arguing fundamentals trail the share-price surge and contrasting this with Nvidia’s lower peak multiples.
