"Earlier this month, Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that “Palantir
Technologies (PLTR) has proven to have great war fighting capabilities and
equipment. Just ask our enemies!!!” — notably including the stock ticker,
because why not just make the market manipulation explicit.
The stock popped after that and has continued to rise in the past couple weeks,
though it’s still down on the year.
Welcome to patronage capitalism with a stock ticker attached."
