SentinelOne Looks Like Palantir Before The BreakoutIn every market cycle, some high-growth companies are misunderstood—until they aren’t. Palantir (PLTR) was one such stock, dismissed early for its lack of profitability and complex model, only to soar when its AI tools gained traction. Now, SentinelOne (NYSE: S) may be next in line.
🧠 What SentinelOne Does
SentinelOne is a top-tier cybersecurity firm offering an AI-powered endpoint protection platform called Singularity. Like Palantir, SentinelOne has faced criticism for:
Persistent losses
High stock-based compensation (SBC)
A misunderstood business model
Despite this, its technology is sticky, deeply embedded in client IT systems, and well-positioned to ride macro trends in AI and cybersecurity.
📈 Financials: Turning a Corner
While the stock hasn’t moved much in two years, trading around $18, SentinelOne’s fundamentals are improving:
Revenue Growth: Double-digit YoY revenue growth (23%+ in each of the last 10 quarters)
Free Cash Flow: $214 million in the past 12 months (~25% FCF margin)
Gross Margins: High and improving
Operating Expenses: Slowing, creating operating leverage
Adjusted Earnings: Near breakeven, signaling profitability is in reach
These trends mirror Palantir’s path before its breakout, particularly the shift from high OpEx to better margins and rising free cash flow.
💰 Valuation: Still Underrated
SentinelOne is trading at only 6x sales and 27x free cash flow, despite:
Strong 20%+ expected revenue growth
Analyst EPS estimates of ~$0.50 by 2028
A market cap under $6 billion
It’s significantly cheaper than peers like CrowdStrike and Palo Alto Networks—despite having similar growth and margin profiles.
⚠️ Risks to Consider
Fierce Competition: Cybersecurity is a crowded field. SentinelOne will have to keep innovating to stay relevant.
Market Sentiment: As a high-growth name, it may be hit hard in downturns.
Limited TAM vs. PLTR: The cybersecurity market isn’t as vast as AI data platforms.
🚀 Final Take
With strong recurring revenue, improving profitability, and an attractive valuation, SentinelOne looks poised for a re-rating. While it may not match Palantir’s scale or splash, the setup is strikingly similar.
Rating: Strong Buy

S SentinelOne Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t bought S before the recent rally:
Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of S SentinelOne prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 20usd strike price Calls with

Price action : shorting at the zone target is 1:7
1/3/25 - $s - Back in sub $23, but small1/3/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NYSE:S
Back in sub $23, but small
- previous entry was so good at $17 that I sold too quickly (tends to be something I do - working on it in '25 - but i also cut losers too so that's good)
- i like the inflecting margins here, profitable inflecting and mid 20s growth for a unique 7 bn EV (smallish/ M&A -able), for only 6x this year's sales (almost the same growth and GM as everyone's favorite meme - PLTR - but for 90% cheaper on multiple lol). yeah i get they're not the same.
- semis r playing well here in the tape, but in '25 cyber i believe will be an important sector to keep a close eye on and not penny pinch. i think there are more winners than other sectors bc each have interesting attributes. NASDAQ:PANW is the NASDAQ:NVDA and continues to win but is expensive so i'm waiting for mkt to one-more-risk-off to re-enter. NASDAQ:ZS is ownable at 10x sales also compounding sales >20%. and you have stuff like NYSE:S that's more of a high risk play b/c of the inflecting profitability ? marks. also like NASDAQ:OKTA as i've written about which is the top dog in access mgmt (though my sights are on OMXSTO:YUBICO too - but the foreign txn fee probably keeps me wanting a better entry here too).
right now i have a pile of shares and have fwd sold covered calls at $25 for dec at $3.8 which gives a nice high teens capture (return) and i'm playing some shorter-dated C's into jan 17 2025 expiry so i don't need to neck out b/c they're trading slightly more than spot and give me 10-1 leverage.
what do u think?

S SentinelOne Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t bought S before the previous breakout:
Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of S SentinelOne prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 30usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-12-6,
for a premium of approximately $0.87.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
Happy ThanksgivingsAccording to the information provided in the image:
After 30 months, S made 200% more revenue, but its stock was trading 83% below the all-time high.
Based on this revenue trend, two future scenarios are presented:
1. S could go up 186% in the next 18 months.
2. S could go busted and down 50% in 18 months.
The key insight is that despite the large increase in revenue, the stock price has not reflected this. The analysis suggests two possible outcomes - a significant upside or a 50% downside - depending on how the market reacts to the revenue growth.
This is for the next 18 months, not the next 18 weeks or the next 18 days!
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you and your loved ones enjoy the holiday.
I appreciate your support.

SentinelOne Gains as CrowdStrike Faces Software Update IssuesSentinelOne, Inc. experienced a boost in stock value following a problematic software update by its competitor, CrowdStrike Holdings Inc., which disrupted Microsoft Windows operating systems. The failed patch affected approximately 1% of Windows devices, translating to around 8.5 million units globally. Many of these devices belong to large, mission-critical service providers that rely on CrowdStrike's cybersecurity solutions.
This incident has led some investors to anticipate a potential increase in SentinelOne's market share, as organisations affected by the glitch might consider switching to alternative cybersecurity providers. The positive shift in SentinelOne's stock reflects investor confidence in the company's ability to capitalise on CrowdStrike's misstep.

Make it or break it moment for $SWith the spectacular fall of NASDAQ:CRWD last week I expect to be a decisive week for SentinelOne.
Scenario nr 1
Break out of the correction or for Bill O'Neill followers break out of the base.
Supporting evidence:
1. Fundamental. Better than expected earnings
The biggest competitor is having a terrible day
2. Rising MACD histogram on the weekly
3. MACD lines almost crossing
4. Force Index getting positive
5. Getting The Positive Direction Line above the Negative Directional Line will mean that the bullish traders dominate the market.
Scenario nr 2
Break out is not ready yet and we go back in the correction range evidenced on my graph by the parallel channel
Why?
Waiting for earnings confirmation?
Force Index above 0 is minor at this point a follow-up week will break the trend.
The stock needs to deal with the overhang supply. First hurdle, people who bought around the $22 price.
S LongSentinelOne (S) shows a bullish setup on the 4-hour chart. The stock has recently broken above a downtrend line and is now testing previous resistance around $22. The price action displays higher lows and higher highs, indicating a potential trend reversal. A green uptrend line supports the recent price action, and the stock has crossed above both the 50 and 200-period moving averages. The breakout is accompanied by increased volume, suggesting genuine buying interest. Key resistance levels are visible at $21.95 and $22.21, with support at $19.70 and $19.33. The entry is placed at the current price level, with a stop below the recent swing low and uptrend line. The profit target is set near the next significant resistance level. The risk-reward ratio is favorable, and the overall technical picture supports a bullish bias.

5/30/24 - $s - bot $17 AH. like the entry here. great biz.5/30/24 - vrockstar - NYSE:S - starting my position here at $17 after hours. hard to say what's buying mgn of safety here, but i'll make a few points:
1) growing 35-40%, same as industry leaders but spending way less
2) better tech, Tomer confident and humble communicating this; have heard it from those in industry as well. buy tech in enterprise, not necessarily in consumer, but it matters in B2B
3) net cash, 5.5x next year EV. half as cheap as avg. of NASDAQ:ZS , NASDAQ:CYBR , NASDAQ:PANW etc. if they were a yester-year product i'd say that was expensive. but these guys are the marginal winners that wall street doesn't see yet
4) 2H pipeline strong, but mgmt communicating conservatively. compare this to $zs. NYSE:S has done a great job beating #s, so it's not like they're promising low #s on missing. what mgmt is comm'ing has to do w/ rebuilding product team esp emerging product ramp. they're incentivized (this is ~40% of their team)
5) what's downside? 4-5x sales? w/ net cash, that's basically 20% most here. that's $3 off the $17 it will open at so $14? at $15 i'd probably already be pretty large. the position i started here wasn't small - 2% to go and would take it to 3-4% at $16, 4-5% at $15 and we'll see thereafter (if/how/why/when etc.)
gl to all. lmk if you see it otherwise.
