#1 - Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR)
The first stock on this list is perhaps the most controversial. Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) is engaged in the big data sector. But many investors have seemed to be reluctant to invest in the company. Since going public, PLTR stock may a nice run to about $30. But on two separate occasions, the stock has tested the $40 level. And each time, the stock has been knocked back.
Wood certainly seems to believe these dips are buying opportunities. She has made Palantir a big buy in her ARK Innovation ETF (NYSEARCA:ARKK). And she also purchased shares of PLTR for the ARK Next-Generation Internet ETF (NYSEARCA:ARKW).
The company’s latest earnings report showed the company continues to burn cash. However, it’s also showing growth in its private sector businesses which was a key factor in the company’s 40% year-over-year revenue growth. With the attention of hedge funds behind it, Palantir appears to be a momentum stock for 2021. And if Wood’s endorsement means anything, PLTR stock may be ready to become considerably more expensive.
