Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE: PLTR) is an American company specializing in software platforms for big data analysis. On November 6, Goldman Sachs analyst Gabriela Borges raised Palantir’s price target from $16 to $41, but maintained a neutral rating on the shares.

The note adds, however, that the neutral stance reflects the stock already pricing in significant success with AIP as it looks to continue its work to better understand the sustainability of Palantir’s competitive advantage.
