This was largely based on the massive employee stock compensation they offer workers. The practice is highly dilutive to existing PLTR stock holders and will put a damper on near- to mid-term opportunities to generate meaningful earnings per share.\nMy conclusion was:\n\n “Themes are great. Growth is great. But investing is about the long-term. And investors require a return on their capital above their cost of capital. The lack of near-to-mid term profitability, the massive ongoing share dilution, and increasing competition make PLTR stock very difficult to invest in now.\n\n\n A price-to-sales ratio of almost 30x does not make it attractive at this time. Patience will be required for a safer entry point at much lower prices than today.”\n\nHowever, things can change and opinions may reverse course. In this case, Palantir’s latest move has made a difference in my viewpoint.\nPLTR Stock Has a New Catalyst\nOn Aug. 17, it was reported that the company bought$50.7 billion in gold barsas part of its internal investment strategy.\nIn an interview, COO Shyam Sankar stated that the purchase “reflects more of a worldview … You have to be prepared for a future with more black swan events.”\nWhen a fast-growing high-tech growth stock with a leading data analytics platform invests in a6,000 year old metal, it’s a notable event in my opinion. It seems counter-intuitive and contrarian, which makes the purchase even more attractive.\n$50 million in gold compared to PLTR’s $50 billion market cap may not move the needle in terms of inflation protection, but it’s a start and I expect more precious metal purchases going forward.\nThe Role of Gold in the Market\nStill considered a rare element, gold is a precious metal that has been used for currency, jewelry and industrial applications for thousands of years.\nGold was used as a standard for monetary policy in the U.S. and other countries for quite some time. But in 1971, this conceptfell out of favorand was replaced with a fiat, or paper, currency system.\nPhysical gold and gold mining stocks like leading producerNewmont Mining(NYSE:NEM) are often seen as a hedge against inflation. With inflationat the forefrontof everyone’s mind today, investors are seeking protection from rising prices.\nGold pricesneared $2,000 per ouncein August 2020 as government stimulus ramped up to fight the negative effects of the Covid pandemic. However, the price recently dropped to about $1,800.\nMany investors are thinking cryptocurrencies might serve as inflation hedges and replace gold, but that has not come to fruition in any meaningful way.\nPalantir Saw Strong Q2 Results\nAside from its gold purchases and unique internal investment strategy, business results remain very strong.Total revenues grew49% from the prior year with commercial revenue growing 90%.\nCash flow from operations was $23 million, which represented a 6% margin. Adjusted free cash flow was $50 million, which was a 13% margin. Additionally, adjusted earnings per share was 4 cents during the quarter. However, GAAP EPS was a loss of 7 cents when you include stock compensation.\nPalantir closed 62 deals in the quarter that have a value of $1 million or more. 21 of those deals exceed $10 million in value.\nFull-year 2021 guidance was raised to an expected adjusted free cash flow of more than $300 million. That’s a significant increase from prior guidance of $150 million. The company continues to expect annual long-term revenue growth of 30% or greater through 2025.\nPLTR Stock Looks More Appealing Now\nPLTR stock is a decent buy for its forward-thinking attitude regarding its internal investment policies. I’m still not comfortable with the company’s high levels of stock compensation and lack of near-term profitability. However, continued rapid revenue growth may overcome that serious issue.\nFor those looking for more direct gold exposure, Newmont Mining looks good at these levels and is supported by a 3.8% dividend yield.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":816022234,"gmtCreate":1630456623428,"gmtModify":1631891317689,"author":{"id":"3553680669291881","authorId":"3553680669291881","name":"maOQiu","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"To the moon","listText":"To the moon","text":"To the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/816022234","repostId":1137274108,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":5711545,"gmtCreate":1630456634349,"gmtModify":1635134295121,"authorId":3553680669291881,"author":{"id":3553680669291881,"authorId":3553680669291881,"name":"maOQiu","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":816022234,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[财迷]","text":"[财迷]","html":"[财迷]"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":818799230,"gmtCreate":1630447132720,"gmtModify":1631889869697,"author":{"id":"3586326413844453","authorId":"3586326413844453","name":"zihaokuek","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/818799230","repostId":1137274108,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":818451881,"gmtCreate":1630432508743,"gmtModify":1633678114097,"author":{"id":"4087698744325360","authorId":"4087698744325360","name":"glorify","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb1a0d88b0029e6cb51d7065d6b143e5","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Great!
