Palantir Technologies has created one of the most dramatic stories on Wall Street this year, defying conventional investment narratives. In 2025, it became the top-performing stock in the S&P 500, surging over 106% and at points climbing 144% from the start of the year—outpacing even AI heavyweights like Nvidia.

Palantir Technologies was the worst performer in the S&P 500 on Tuesday, with the stock continuing to surrender gains following a blowout earnings report earlier this month.

Palantir stock fell for the sixth straight session on Wednesday. With the retreat, Palantir stock is down 18% from its all-time high.
