Palantir streamlines decision-making based on data analysis. The company helps with search functions and is heavily involved in the security industry. PLTR has links to law enforcement agencies such as the FBI, CIA, police and Department of Defense.
Who is Lilium merging with?
Palantir has taken a stake in German air shuttle company Lilium via a private placement, according to Reuters. Lilium is scheduled to go public in the US via a SPAC deal. The deal is to be via a reverse merger with Qell Acquisition Corp (QELL) in a deal valuing the business at $3.3 billion.
Lilium uses battery-powered aircraft that can take off and land vertically, eliminating the need for runway space and increasing the flexibility of use.
"In Qell, we have found a partner who shares our ambition for sustainable mobility and brings tremendous experience in running mobility and hardware businesses," Daniel Wiegand, CEO and co-founder of Lilium, said in a statement.
Lilium has a five-seater prototype aircraft and also now plans for a seven-seater airplane. The seven-seater will be the mainstay of the business and the first to go into production. Lilium has received certification CR1AO1 from the EU Aviation Safety Agency in 2020.

The new combined company, post-merger, will have Barry Engle on its board along with Tom Enders, former CEO of Airbus.
Previous updates
Update, April 1: Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE: PLTR) has shot up by 5.67% on Wednesday amid several positive developments. Apart from the buying from ARK and the Lilium IPO moves, investors were relieved to hear that a legal threat in the UK is now off the table. Campaigners at Open Democracy seem to have settled for a promise for more transparency from the National Health Service (NHS), regarding further contracts from Palantir. However, activists demanding to know more about how Palantir handles sensitive patient data dropped their lawsuit, allowing some calm. PLTR's ties with the CIA were under scrutiny.
Update 2 March 31: Palantir shares finally catch some bids on Wednesday. PLTR shares are up 2% just after the open on Wednesday. Shares in Palantir have struggled for positive momentum of late. This despite ARK Invest buying more shares and Palantir taking an investment in German start up Lilium which is going public via SPAC. The last trade is $22.65, a gain of nearly 3% now.
Update March 31: Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE: PLTR) has ended Tuesday's session at $22.04, up some 1.43%. Shares of the secretive data analytics firm have been on a recovery path, edging higher as tech stocks are looking for a direction. President Joe Biden is set to unveil a multi-trillion infrastructure spending program later in the day. It is essential to note that markets will likely be jittery on the last day of the quarter, as money managers adjust their portfolios.
Update March 30: PLTR shares just cannot catch a break, with losses continuing on Tuesday straight at the bell. Palantir shares are sitting at $21 dollar dangerously near key support at $20.18, the low from March 5. A break of this level would bring $17.06 into view. On Tuesday it was announced that Lilium is to IPO via a reverse merger with SPAC QELL. Palantir is to take a stake in Lilium. QELL shares are up 2% at the time of writing.
