Jim Cramer on Palantir: 'I Say it Can be Bought'

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) is one of the 25 stocks Jim Cramer recently shared insights on. Cramer highlighted his past predictions of the company stock going to $200 and said that he's 'sticking by that.' He commented: 'But what do we do with the very different set of winners for the first half? I want you to consider the GE Vernovas and the Howmets and the Palantirs, the stocks that are likely to finish the year dramatically higher from these exalted levels. What do you do with the stocks that have been on a run nonstop for 26 weeks, though? I think you send them on one of those two-week vacations like that Southeast Asia, Cape Town, maybe New Zealand.

Why AeroVironment Stock Plunged This Week

Dilution fears were raised on news of twin capital-raising moves. The company is floating both fresh stock and convertible senior notes in a public offering. 10 stocks we like better than AeroVironment › Military drone specialist AeroVironment (NASDAQ: AVAV) has generally done well as a stock lately. But that didn't happen this week, as news of a round of capital-raising dampened investor sentiment on the company. According to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, AeroVironment stock lost more than 11% of its value over the period. On Monday, AeroVironment announced it would float both a secondary share offering and an issue of convertible senior notes. The following day it set the parameters for the pair. With the former, it's selling just over 3.5 million shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering at $248 per share. The underwriters of the flotation have been granted a 30-day option to collectively purchase an additional 29,234 shares. As for the convertible senior notes, AeroVironment is issuing $650 million aggregate principal amount at an interest rate of 0%. They are to be convertible at the investor's option under certain conditions and at certain periods. The initial conversion rate is slightly over 3.1 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes; the company said this equates to $322.40 per share. AeroVironment said it expected both issues to close on Thursday, July 3, and to net proceeds of around $1.47 billion. The company aims to use a bit more than $965 million to retire debt, with the remainder being directed to "general corporate purposes." These include an increase in manufacturing capacity. Currently, AeroVironment has just under 45.6 million shares outstanding, so if conversion rates are high with the notes, the twin issues could be dilutive. Shareholder dilution is the bane of many of an investor, so it's likely this was the root of their discontent during the week. On a fundamental basis, though, AeroVironment still looks like a good stock to own. The company seems to be doing well satisfying the growing demand for combat drones, as witnessed by its impressive fourth-quarter performance and its growing backlog. I wouldn't be down on the stock only because of its latest capital-raising moves.

Analyst resets Datadog stock price target after surprise addition to S&P 500

Shares of Datadog (DDOG) surged nearly 15% to $155.15 on July 3 after S&P Global said the monitoring software provider will be included in the S&P 500 U.S. stock index, effective before the market opens on July 9. The move surprised some investors, who had expected names like Robinhood (HOOD) or AppLovin (APP) to be next in line. Datadog will replace Juniper Networks (JNPR) , which was just acquired by Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co. (HPE) . The S&P 500 is a stock index that tracks the performance of 500 of the leading publicly traded companies in the U.S., serving as a key benchmark for the overall health of the U.S. economy. Tech firms now make up a major share of the index and have an important impact on its movements. Stocks could likely rally after being added to a major index like the S&P 500 because of increased demand from institutional investors, especially passive index funds. DoorDash (DASH) joined the index in March and has risen 20% since. Palantir (PLTR) , which was added last September, has jumped more than 250% since joining. Datadog has lagged behind the broader tech sector this year, falling 5.5% through July 2, while the Nasdaq has gained 5.6%. The stock also underperformed the Nasdaq Composite Index in 2024. Image source: NurPhoto/Getty Images New York-based Datadog, founded in 2010, went public in 2019. It produces software that monitors and secures an enterprise's entire technology infrastructure - including servers, applications, databases, and security systems. The company has benefited from expanding into AI. It offers tools such as LLM Observability to help businesses monitor machine learning models and AI-driven applications in production. Related: Analyst sends bold message on quantum computing stocks after Nvidia CEO's pivot In Q1 2025, Datadog generated $761.6 million in revenue, a 25% increase from a year earlier and ahead of the $741.5 million analysts were expecting. Adjusted earnings came in at 46 cents per share, beating estimates closer to 43 cents. The company raised its full-year revenue forecast to between $3.22 billion and $3.24 billion, up from its previous range of $3.18 billion to $3.20 billion. Wall Street had been looking for around $3.20 billion, according to LSEG data pulled by Reuters. Datadog also gave a second-quarter revenue outlook that topped expectations. Its next earnings report is expected in early August. Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives raised the firm's price target on Datadog to $170 from $140 and reiterated an outperform rating following the news, citing "incremental confidence in the company to capitalize on its observability initiatives over the coming years." Ives said Datadog's platform "continues to gain momentum within the observability space, especially with AI front and center." He expects the company to gain more market share with elevated usage for its AI cohort across its enterprise customers.

That implies a downside of about 9.5% from the July 3 closing price of $155.15.
