Part A:
1.  Estimate the current valuation of the stock using Relative Value Ratios. Show your computations.
The relative value ratios are:
Price/Earnings (P/E) = Share Price/ Earnings per share
		= 23.24/ -0.65
P/E ratio of Palantir -35.75
The company was in loss in the current year and so EPS was negative. 
Price/Book (P/B) = Share Price/ Book value per share
	= 23.24/0.82
P/B ratio of Palantir = 28.06
Price/Cash Flow (P/CF) = Share price/ Cash flow from operation
		= 23.24/ -156,572
P/CF of Palantir = 0.00
There was negative cash flow from operation due to loss. 
Price/Sales (P/S) = Share price/ Sales
	= 23.24/ 1,092,673
P/S of Palantir = 0.00
Most of the ratios shows zero value or negative value. Only P/B ratio shows value close to the market price of the share. But clearly, the Palantir shares are overvalued.  
2.  Determine a Price Target 1 year from now and 5 years from now.  Briefly explain your inputs and logic.
