AMD's CEO, Lisa Su, stated, “Customer engagement around MI450 Series and Helios is strengthening, with leading customer forecasts exceeding our initial expectations.” Meanwhile, Palantir's Alex Karp noted that the company’s Rule of 40 score has soared to 145%.
Despite Palantir's impressive growth, analysts suggest that AMD's forward P/E near 77 and concrete customer base make it the more attractive investment. Palantir's price-to-sales ratio sits near 53, raising concerns about its valuation amidst a $201.6 million stock-based compensation bill.
