Palantir Technologies Inc., which counts Peter Thiel as its largest shareholder, is investing in gold at a time when more U.S. companies are focusing their efforts on cryptocurrencies.
The Denver-based big data company this month bought $50.7 million worth of 100-ounce gold bars, according to a regulatory filing.
The gold will initially be stored by a third party somewhere in the Northeastern United States. Palantir can take delivery at any time after giving reasonable notice.
