Peter Thiel's Palantir to IPO within weeks, start trading before election

Bloomberg News reports on Friday that the secretive big-data and surveillance technology firm Palantir is preparing to register an S-1 filing confidentially, and plans to go public in the coming weeks and start trading as early as fall 2020.

As others have pointed out, it's an interesting time for a much-criticized tech firm to go public, right before the election which decides whether we get another four years of Donald Trump, and his brand of technofascism, with which Palantir's chief executives seem very content.
