Palantir Technologies Inc. PLTR experienced a 3.25% increase in pre-market trading on Monday, as per Benzinga Pro. This rise follows the company’s recent announcement of its transition from the NYSE to the Nasdaq, with trading set to begin on Nov. 26.
Palantir’s stock will continue under the ticker “PLTR.” The move to Nasdaq is part of a broader trend, as the exchange has attracted 16 significant companies this year, including Science Applications International Corp SAIC and Campbell Soup Company CPB.
While Palantir has not confirmed any plans to join the Nasdaq-100, the potential inclusion could enhance its visibility and attract investor interest. Historically, companies switching to Nasdaq have often joined this prestigious index, which could lead to increased demand for Palantir shares.
