A story on the same day is not a cause, and a group move is not proof either. Group: the median of MSFT, ORCL, SHOP and CRM that day, the largest companies in PLTR’s SEC industry; “moved with PLTR” means the same direction and at least half the size.
What’s next · results
Before the next report: what the first day after the last four did
Six trading days after each results filing (SEC 8-K, Item 2.02). PLTR reports after the close, so day 1 is the next close. 3 of 4 times, day 6 ended on the same side as day 1.

Next report: expected early FebruaryEstimated from the dates of its last four results filings. Not announced. Since the Nov 2 report: −3.72%. Four reports is a small sample.
Each line is PLTR’s close against its close before the filing, on licensed end-of-day closes. What happened after each report, not a forecast; a move on the day is not a cause.
Same industry
PLTR against four software peers, a year at 100
PLTR is down 3.5% in a year. Microsoft is up 11.9% and Shopify 0.4%. Of these four, Salesforce (−5.3%) and Oracle (−48.3%) did less. Weekly closes, Nov 7, 2025 = 100, on a log scale, so the same percentage move is the same height on every line.
End-of-day closes (Databento EOD), the last close of each week. The four peers are the largest US-listed companies by market value in PLTR’s SEC industry (Services-Prepackaged Software) with a year of closes. It shows what the closes did; a move here is not a cause, a forecast or a call.
