Peter Thiel, the renowned venture capitalist and Chairman of Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR), has filed to sell up to $1B worth of Palantir shares, Barron’s reported.
Thiel, who initially made the disclosure in August via his investment vehicle Rivendell 7 LLC, has not yet sold any Palantir shares via the Rule 10b5-1 plan that was put forth into place. Rivendell 7 LLC adopted a Rule 10b5-1 plan on May 15 that would allow for the sale of approximately 28.6M shares of Palantir by Dec. 31 2025 at the latest, per the filing.
Thiel last sold Palantir stock just before the 10b5-1 plan was put into place, when he sold 13M shares for an aggregate price of $273.5M, the news outlet added.
Separately on Tuesday, Bank of America raised its price target on the enterprise software company to $50 from $30 after it was included in the S&P 500, an event that the investment bank called a “watershed moment” for Palantir.
