Palantir began gaining momentum only a few years ago. Palantir Technologies (PLTR 12.51%) has been one of the most-watched stocks during the artificial intelligence (AI) boom. The company makes software, including an AI-driven platform, that helps customers make better use of their data. Quarter after quarter, demand has soared, resulting in impressive earnings growth and stock performance. And just this week, during its latest earnings report, Palantir delivered two key messages that you shouldn't ignore. They set the tone for what happens next in terms of growth. Palantir's recent growth Before diving in, let's take a quick look at Palantir's path so far. The company has been around for more than 20 years, but it only started experiencing its big growth stage in recent years. Palantir launched its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) more than two years ago, allowing customers to apply the power of AI to their needs. The company's systems, including AIP, aggregate and analyze a customer's data -- then help that customer put the data to work. This can result in new processes and strategies or even pave the way to innovation. Palantir's customers include governments and commercial players, and these days, a good deal of this business is for the U.S. government and U.S. businesses. Demand for AI products and services in general has been high, as we've heard from many tech companies such as chip designers and cloud service providers -- so it's easy to see why AIP, a platform that allows customers to immediately put AI to work for them, has taken off. It's helped the company's revenue soar in the double digits quarter after quarter and pushed profit to a record of $609 million in this recent quarter.

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images WeRide's ( WRD ) stock has performed poorly over the past 12 months given the generally strong returns of Chinese tech companies. The fundamentals of its business appear fairly strong, though, with WeRide's robotaxi fleet continuing to expand globally. WeRide's share price is up around 35% since I first wrote about the company , with the increase more related to easing geopolitical tensions and improving sentiment towards the Chinese market than developments in WeRide's business. Despite the increase, WeRide retains a relatively low valuation given that its business is potentially approaching an inflection point. WeRide's robotaxi network is likely to be the primary value driver in the near term, and there is reason to be optimistic in this regard. While WeRide has an attractive valuation and its growth is likely to strengthen, I believe geopolitical tensions and uncertainty about how self-driving markets will develop negate this. Market Conditions While self-driving vehicles will undoubtedly be widely adopted in time, there remains uncertainty about timing and how value will be distributed among consumers and the industry supply chain. WeRide has suggested that there are 4-5 main players, although it hasn't stated who they are. Waymo's business is scaling rapidly in the US, and the company is starting to establish a presence internationally. Pony ( PONY ) also has aggressive expansion plans for 2026, although deployment is likely to be focused on China. Baidu ( BIDU ) also has a large and growing robotaxi fleet in China and the UAE. Beyond this, the market is crowded with a number of companies having aggressive growth targets even though they are yet to actually deploy fully driverless vehicles. WeRide Business Updates WeRide's L4 fleet consists of more than 1,600 vehicles that are deployed across 11 countries and over 30 cities. This includes more than 100 robotaxis in the Middle East, a number that WeRide plans on expand...
In February 2026, the competitive landscape of autonomous vehicles and robotaxi services is shifting in a way that could materially impact Tesla (TSLA).

In February 2026, the competitive landscape of autonomous vehicles and robotaxi services is shifting in a way that could materially impact Tesla (TSLA). Alphabet's (GOOG) (GOOGL) Waymo is a self-driving pioneer, has just completed one of the largest funding rounds in autonomous vehicle history, raising $16 billion and achieving a valuation of roughly $126 billion, nearly three times its valuation just 16 months earlier . This fresh capital will accelerate its expansion into more than 20 new cities, backed by a roster of top institutional investors and Alphabet as the majority stakeholder. The monumental round underscores strong investor conviction in Waymo’s technology, commercial traction, and leadership in robotaxi deployment, with the company already delivering hundreds of thousands of weekly rides across several major areas. Meanwhile, Tesla’s valuation is at a level that has drawn concern from some analysts, given the company’s reliance on future growth in autonomous services and robotics to justify its valuation. At the same time, Tesla’s core automotive business faces slowing deliveries and margin pressures, and its Full Self-Driving (FSD) suite and robotaxi initiatives continue to be scrutinized for commercialization timelines. So, does Waymo’s momentum signal that Tesla’s valuation may be overextended, and is February 2026 the time to consider trimming or selling TSLA? About Tesla Stock Tesla is an automotive and clean energy company headquartered in Austin, Texas. Tesla designs, manufactures, and sells electric vehicles (EVs) , alongside energy storage solutions such as Powerwall and Megapack, solar products like solar panels and Solar Roof, and related services.

Find winning stocks in any market cycle. Join 7 million investors using Simply Wall St's investing ideas for FREE. Micron Technology stock snapshot Micron Technology (MU) has drawn investor attention after recent trading, with the share price last closing at $419.44. The stock shows mixed short-term moves alongside multi-year total returns and reported growth in revenue and net income. See our latest analysis for Micron Technology. Recent trading has been choppy, with a 1-day share price return decline of 4.19% and a 7-day share price return decline of 3.64%. However, the 30-day and 90-day share price returns of 34.37% and 75.99% respectively, alongside very large 1-year and 3-year total shareholder returns, point to strong underlying momentum that the latest pullback has not erased. If Micron’s run has caught your eye, this can be a useful moment to see what else is moving in chips and AI, starting with high growth tech and AI stocks. With Micron’s share price well above its latest analyst target and its intrinsic value estimate, investors now face a key question: is the recent strength overdone, or is the market correctly pricing in future growth? Most Popular Narrative: 39.7% Overvalued At $419.44, Micron Technology is trading well above the most followed narrative fair value of $300.21, setting up a clear valuation gap for investors to weigh. Micron Technology stands at a fascinating crossroads where the promise of a powerful, AI-driven supercycle meets the persistent risks of a volatile industry. The core investment thesis is a bet that the structural, long-term demand for high-performance memory, particularly HBM, will be strong enough to fundamentally change the company's profitability and mitigate the historical boom-and-bust cycles. Read the complete narrative. Curious how that AI supercycle view adds up to a lower fair value than today’s price? The key inputs mix strong revenue gains with expanding margins and a restrained profit multiple. Want to see exac...

Senator Tim Scott, a Republican from South Carolina and chairman of Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, during a confirmation hearing in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday, Oct. 30, 2025. Eric Lee | Bloomberg | Getty Images Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., said Wednesday he does not think Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell committed any crime when he testified before the Senate last year — even as a Department of Justice investigation centered on that testimony continues. Scott, who chairs the Senate Banking Committee, also predicted fellow GOP Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina will end his blockade of Kevin Warsh , President Donald Trump 's pick to replace Powell as Fed chair. Tillis on Wednesday in an interview with CNBC's " Squawk Box " doubled down on his vow that he will not vote to advance Warsh out of the Banking Committee until the Powell probe is dropped. Scott, in a Fox Business interview Wednesday morning, initially slammed Powell. "I believe that it's time for a new [Fed] Chair, and thank God Almighty, we're getting ready to get one," he said. "I have found him to be inept at doing his job," Scott said of Powell. "But ineptness or being incompetent is not a criminal act." Scott noted that his questions to the Fed chair during a Banking Committee hearing last June are the same ones that are now under scrutiny by the Trump administration. "I believe what he did was made a gross error in judgment. He was not prepared for that hearing," Scott said. But "I do not believe that he committed a crime during the hearing," he said. The comments, while wrapped in criticism, serve as a defense of Powell, whom Trump has frequently railed against as he heaps pressure on the Fed to lower interest rates more quickly. The remarks are among Scott's first on the Powell criminal probe since the central bank chairman revealed its existence more than three weeks earlier. On Monday, Trump said the investigation into Powell, which is being led by U.S. Attorney for Was...

Shoppers in Cornwall could have been forgiven for feeling bemused after a supermarket put up bilingual signs – in Welsh. A branch of Tesco in Helston – about 200 miles from south Wales by road – pointed shoppers towards pysgod, which is Welsh, not Cornish, for fish. It also labelled sweet potato as tatws melys – again Welsh instead of Cornish. Cllr Loveday Jenkin, a leading member of the political party Mebyon Kernow, which campaigns for greater self-government for Cornwall, said she was pleased Tesco had put up bilingual signs. “But would have been more exciting if they had been in Cornish rather than Welsh,” said Jenkin. She popped into the Tesco – her local – on Wednesday to thank customer services for the effort but request that the right Celtic language be used. Loveday, a speaker of Kernewek (Cornish), said some words in her language were similar to Welsh. So, for example, fish is pysk in Cornish and sweet potato aval dor melys. “There are similarities. If you weren’t a Cornish speaker, you might get mixed up with Cornish and Welsh.” Loveday said she hoped the mistake would not put off Tesco. “Some other supermarkets and shops do have signs in Cornish. You see much more Cornish on road signs and on public buildings.” The mistake comes at a pertinent time. In January, Kernewek was officially recognised under part III of the European charter for regional or minority languages, which gives it greater protection and status. Cornwall council believes there are about 500 advanced Cornish speakers and 2,000 people with basic levels of the language. The Mercury prize-nominated Cornish/Welsh singer Gwenno Saunders recently told the Guardian that Cornish should be more widely taught to children in the county to protect the language and preserve its culture. Perran Moon, the Labour MP for Camborne and Redruth, said the language’s new status was a boost for Cornwall. He said: “We are also pleased that retailers are starting to use bilingual signage, however, clearly this ...

A Tesla robotaxi, left, and a Waymo autonomous vehicle are seen in July on a residential street in Austin. Both companies testified Wednesday during a U.S. Senate hearing on the safety and regulation of autonomous vehicles. Jay Janner/Austin American-Statesman Amid multiple federal investigations into their safety and compliance with traffic laws, self-driving automakers Tesla Inc. and Waymo urged Congress on Wednesday to help speed the deployment of autonomous vehicles. Both companies testified at a U.S. Senate Commerce Committee hearing called to examine whether the federal government should establish national standards for autonomous vehicles. Committee leaders argue that a patchwork of state laws has slowed adoption and made it difficult for companies to scale operations across state lines. Advertisement Article continues below this ad “The United States is locked in a global race with Chinese AV companies for the future of autonomous driving, a trillion-dollar industry comparable in strategic importance to flight and space travel,” Waymo said in written testimony ahead of the meeting. Lars Moravy, Tesla’s vice president of vehicle engineering echoed that sentiment in his testimony Wednesday, saying nations like China will shape the technology and global market for it if the U.S. does not ease deployment requirements. Texas revised its 2017 AV framework during the most recent legislative session, though the new regulations will not be enforceable until May 28, according to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. New federal regulations could potentially override state laws. In a U.S. House committee hearing last month, representatives discussed possible legislation to bar states from policing the technology at all. Statesman Logo Want more Statesman?

Ryan W. Routh, suspected of attempting to assassinate Republican presidential nominee and former U.S. President Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf course, stands handcuffed after his arrest during a traffic stop near Palm City, Florida, U.S., September 15, 2024. Martin County Sheriff's Office | Via Reuters A man convicted of trying to assassinate President Donald Trump on a Florida golf course in 2024 was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison after a federal prosecutor said his crime was unacceptable "in this country or anywhere." U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon pronounced Ryan Routh's fate in the same Fort Pierce courtroom that erupted into chaos in September when he tried to stab himself shortly after jurors found him guilty on all counts. "American democracy does not work when individuals take it into their own hands to eliminate candidates. That's what this individual tried to do" Assistant U.S. Attorney John Shipley told the judge. Routh's new defense attorney, Martin L. Roth, argued that "at the moment of truth, he chose not to pull the trigger." The judge pushed back, noting Routh's history of arrests, to which Roth said, "He's a complex person I'll give the court that, but he has a very good core." Routh then read from a rambling, 20-page statement. Cannon broke in and said none of what he was saying was relevant, and gave him five more minutes to talk. "I did everything I could and lived a good life," Routh said, before the judge cut him off. "Your plot to kill was deliberate and evil," she said. "You are not a peaceful man. You are not a good man." She then issued his sentence: Life without parole, plus 7 years on a gun charge. His sentences for his other three crimes will run concurrently. Routh's sentencing had initially been scheduled for December, but Cannon agreed to move the date back after Routh decided to use an attorney during the sentencing phase instead of representing himself as he did for most of the trial.

A unit of Aon Plc agreed to settle a class-action lawsuit alleging that calculation errors and faulty investment advice caused Pennsylvania public school teachers to make millions of dollars in extra contributions to their pension fund. The firm’s Aon Investments USA subsidiary agreed to pay $15 million to settle the allegations, according to a filing last week in federal court in Philadelphia. It’s the third settlement between teachers and advisers to the $80 billion Pennsylvania Public School Employees’ Retirement System , the state’s largest public pension fund. Asset managers Hamilton Lane and Portfolio Advisors previously settled allegations in the case after they were accused of recommending unsuitable and expensive private equity and private credit investments. The settlement still requires court approval, said Gerard Mantese, a lawyer for the plaintiffs. An Aon spokesperson declined to comment. The Pennsylvania teachers alleged that Aon recommended the pension invest in inappropriate, high-fee hedge funds that led to significant losses. Aon also relied on other financial advisers to compute returns, failed to confirm or check returns or disclose excessive fees, the lawsuit alleged. Aon previously settled US Securities and Exchange Commission allegations that it miscalculated returns of the teachers’ pension and failed to adequately investigate discrepancies in historical returns. Aon paid a $1 million penalty in 2024 without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings. The miscalculations caused turmoil at the Pennsylvania pension, leading the chief investment officer and executive director to step down. Aon agreed to a $7 million settlement with the pension fund in 2024.

The directors of a company tend to have a unique inside view into the business, so when directors make major buys, investors are wise to take notice.
