NYSE:PLTR closed the week before July 4th on a downtrend, although the stock did manage to stay above a key support level of $24.00. On Friday, shares of Palantir dipped a further 1.13% to close the trading session at $24.44, which can be seen as positive as it stayed above its 21-day moving average price. If Palantir continues to decline into next week, the stock could lose that support and all of the gains that were made over the past month could be lost. Palantir continues to be a popular stock for institutional and retail investors alike, with strong support from Reddit forums such as r/WallStreetBets, as well as popular funds like Ark Invest.

The data analytics company established a significant partnership with the NHS or National Health Service of England, and the hiring of Dr. Whatling will look to continue this strong relationship in the years ahead.
