Palantir ($PLTR) is now up 22% since we gave readers a pre-earnings bullish setup.
The stock is also up 50% since its late July low. Readers will now see that the stock is consolidating while building a sideways to slightly higher trajectory after its post-earnings run. The stock has left its 200-day SMA in the dust, forcing professional managers to increase exposure. In addition, relative strength is quite robust but not severely overbought technically. On top of that, the daily MACD is set up about as bullishly as it could be with all three components singing the same song. My $205 target price stands for now.
