Palantir Technologies shares are trading near all-time highs heading into its fourth quarter earnings report after the close of trading Monday, with analysts focused on the data-analytics group's profit and sales forecast for the coming year.

Palantir Technologies Inc.’s hefty premium will be in focus when the data analysis software giant reports earnings after the market close on Monday — with the stock trading at levels some see as difficult to maintain.

Palantir Technologies reported strong revenue growth last quarter as the company that made its name providing software to the U.S. government said demand for its artificial intelligence products continues to expand.
