Palantir Technologies (PLTR, Financial) is gaining attention after the U.S. Army paused its Data Platform 2.0 development, a move considered favorable for Palantir's Vantage platform. Analyst Louie DiPalma from William Blair noted the Army's shift toward Vantage, which secures a significant contract for Palantir, producing around $115 million annually.

This decision may increase Palantir's revenue from $401 million to $619 million over four years, reinforcing its position in other major Department of Defense contracts. Despite this positive outlook, Palantir's shares dipped 5.2% in late trading.
