- Palantir stock surged about 12% after the company reported quarterly results that executives and outlets described as "otherworldly," sailing past expectations
- Palantir's U.S. commercial revenue soared nearly 150% year-over-year in the quarter, per CNBC
- Palantir raised its forward forecast alongside the earnings beat, per WSJ

Why it matters: A nearly 150% jump in U.S. commercial revenue suggests Palantir's enterprise AI pitch is converting into real, contracted dollars at a pace that even optimistic analysts may not have modeled, justifying the 12% single-day stock move and a raised outlook that sets a higher bar for the next quarter.
