“Among our finalists, however, it is Mr Karp of Palantir who stands out. Over the course of 2024 his company's market capitalisation has rocketed from $36bn to over $180bn. Its underlying financial performance has been impressive. Palantir is expanding rapidly, with analysts expecting it to notch up revenue growth of 26% in 2024, up ten percentage points from the year before. It has also become much more profitable, with operating margins doubling to 15% in the 12 months to September 2024. In a sign of its ascendancy, Palantir was added to the S&P 500 index of America's most valuable companies in September.”
