Number of Billionaire Holders: 23
On May 7, Argus upgraded Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:PLTR) to Buy from Hold and set a $190 price target following the company’s Q1 results.
The analyst said Palantir’s revenue growth has continued to accelerate, while operating margins have improved sharply. After the recent sell-off, the firm believes the stock now offers a more attractive entry point. Argus also raised its FY26 EPS estimate by $0.15 to $1.47 and increased its FY27 forecast by $0.25 to $1.94.
During the company’s Q1 2026 earnings call, Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Legal Officer Ryan Taylor said revenue grew 85% year-over-year during the quarter. He noted that the company’s U.S. business, which now accounts for 79% of total revenue, climbed 104% year-over-year and moved past the 100% growth mark.
Taylor also said the company’s Rule of 40 score reached 145% and described AIP as the only platform capable of creating a true AI “no slop zone.”
CTO and Executive VP Shyam Sankar said one of the biggest shifts in enterprise software is that AI models are becoming more alike while token costs continue to decline sharply. He noted that GPT-4 equivalent performance is now roughly 1,000x cheaper.
Sankar added that Palantir is building a platform-native agent engine SDK that includes unified cost attribution per agent, full provenance tracking, and controls such as approval gates. According to him, these features are helping CISOs, CFOs, and combatant commanders feel more comfortable approving the technology.

2. Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL)
Number of Billionaire Holders: 25
On May 8, Arete analyst Adam Shepherd upgraded Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) to Buy from Neutral and set a $255 price target on the stock. The firm said supply constraints in graphics processing units are helping industry economics. It also noted that Oracle’s cost-cutting measures should at least support its earnings targets. According to Arete, Oracle’s momentum in generative AI suggests Wall Street’s current cloud estimates may still be too low.
Earlier, on April 28, Wedbush maintained an Outperform rating on Oracle with a $225 price target. The analyst Daniel Ives called the selloff in Oracle shares a “way overreaction” after a Wall Street Journal report said OpenAI had recently missed its own targets for new users and revenue. Wedbush said OpenAI continues to see “very high demand” from both consumer and enterprise customers and strongly pushed back against the idea that growth is slowing. The firm noted that Oracle’s $553B backlog largely includes a $300B cloud contract with OpenAI over the next five years. According to the analyst, that project alone is expected to contribute $30B in revenue.
Wedbush also said it remains highly confident in Oracle’s ability to complete its planned $50B capital raise. The firm believes concerns surrounding OpenAI have been overstated and said the company has enough capital to meet its compute capacity needs for at least the next three years.
Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) provides integrated application suites along with secure and autonomous infrastructure through Oracle Cloud. The company operates across three business segments: cloud and license, hardware, and service.
1. Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST)
Number of Billionaire Holders: 30
On May 7, Reuters reported that Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST) swung to a quarterly profit as rising power demand and higher electricity prices lifted results. The company’s shares climbed 4.2% in premarket trading following the report. Power companies across the US have been increasing prices and boosting capital spending as they work to expand infrastructure and keep up with growing demand from technology companies building artificial intelligence data centers.
Reuters further reported that beyond AI, electricity demand in the US is also expected to rise sharply through this year and next, supported by cryptocurrency growth and the transition toward electric heating and transportation. Earlier this year, Vistra agreed to acquire Cogentrix Energy from Quantum Capital Group for about $4.7 billion. The deal followed the company’s 2025 Lotus acquisition as it continued expanding to meet higher power demand. The company expects annual load growth of 5% to 6% in Texas’ ERCOT grid and 2% to 3% in the PJM region.
Interest expenses during the first quarter fell more than 17% to $263 million. Its Texas segment reported adjusted core profit of $586 million, up more than 19% from a year earlier. The East segment, which includes the PJM and New England regions, posted growth of 55.8%. The company reported net income of $980 million for the three months ended March 31. A year earlier, it had posted a loss of $317 million. Vistra also reaffirmed its 2026 adjusted core profit outlook from continuing operations in the range of $6.8 billion to $7.6 billion.
Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST) is an integrated retail electricity and power generation company serving customers, businesses, and communities across the U.S., from California to Maine.
