The controversial data-analytics company Palantir may be pumping the breaks on going public. On Thursday, Bloomberg reported that the Palo Alto, California based tech firm was in talks with private investors to raise "significant funding." Previously, Palantir was reportedly targeting an IPO in 2020. Bloomberg said that Palantir co-founder and Chairman Peter Thiel has told employees that the company would not be going public within the next two to three years. That could set a potential Palantir IPO date back to 2022 or 2023. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.
