Palantir’s stock surge—over 600% in one year, before this week’s slide—has made its CEO Alex Karp a wealthy man. Karp sold nearly $2 billion worth of company shares last year, with the bulk of sales taking place in a single month around the presidential election.

Karp believes Big Tech needs to refocus on the military and national security work at the heart of Silicon Valley’s origins.
