What's Going On With Palantir Stock After Renewing Collaboration With Rio Tinto?

Palantir Technologies Inc. PLTR shares are trading relatively flat in the premarket session on Wednesday.

The company announced today that it renewed its multi-year enterprise agreement with the mining giant Rio Tinto Plc RIO, extending the partnership for an additional four years.

This agreement ensures Rio Tinto’s continued access to Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), further enhancing the company’s operational efficiency and AI capabilities.

• Commercial real estate has historically outperformed the stock market, and this platform allows individuals to invest in commercial real estate with as little as $5,000 offering a 12% target yield with a bonus 1% return boost today!

As an early adopter of Palantir Foundry, Rio Tinto has already built a robust digital twin, or “Ontology,” which serves as a unified data model for critical operations.

The Ontology enables Rio Tinto to leverage AIP to rapidly develop, test, and deploy AI-driven solutions, addressing challenges in areas like plant operations, geotechnical risk management, and the coordination of unmanned trains.

“The Foundry Ontology has made our structured data accessible, and AIP is doing the same for our unstructured data while enabling us to attack with pace problems previously deemed too complex,” said Bold Bataar, Rio Tinto’s Chief Commercial Officer.

Trending: During market downturns, investors are learning that unlike equities, these high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% – 9% are protected by resilient assets, buffering against losses.

According to Benzinga Pro, RIO stock has lost over 6% in the past year. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via VanEck Steel ETF SLX and Gabelli ETFs Trust Gabelli Financial Services Opportunities ETF GABF and VanEck Natural Resources ETF HAP.

For instance, in Western Australia’s Pilbara region, Foundry integrates real-time data from hundreds of systems, allowing operators to optimize the routing of 53 driverless trains transporting iron ore. This has led to improved safety and throughput on the rail network.

Meanwhile, in Mongolia’s Oyu Tolgoi mine, the Ontology provides dynamic risk management for one of the world’s most challenging mining environments.

Ted Mabrey, Palantir’s Head of Commercial, highlighted the potential of AIP to address Rio Tinto’s most pressing challenges, including risk identification and asset management, ensuring safe and efficient AI deployment.

Interest Rates Are Falling, But These Yields Aren't Going Anywhere

Lower interest rates mean some investments won't yield what they did in months past, but you don't have to lose those gains. Certain private market real estate investments are giving retail investors the opportunity to capitalize on these high-yield opportunities.

Arrived Home's Private Credit Fund’s has historically paid an annualized dividend yield of 8.1%*, which provides access to a pool of short-term loans backed by residential real estate. The best part? Unlike other private credit funds, this one has a minimum investment of only $100.
