Video: Rambling Palantir CEO Alex Karp makes a compelling case for shorting his company

The hero of the big short, who made a killing ahead of the housing crash and GFC of 2008, Michael Burry, has called AI out as a bubble taking a $1 billion bet against Nvidia and Palantir (US:PLTR). The latter trades on a PE of 433 with a market cap of $452 billion but its CEO Alex Karp reckons shorters are guilty of market manipulation, that it is unpatriotic not to back his company and that it will all be different tis time. The video interview below with a sycophantic creep at CNBC makes me fear for the health of Karp as he talks utter piffle. It makes a compelling case for hating the MSM but also for shorting Palantir.
