Tweet from Palantir board member’s account says move to Nasdaq “to force billions in ETF buying” and reward investors
Earlier in the day, my colleague Matt Phillips noted how the decision by Palantir Technologies to move its share listing from the NYSE to the Nasdaq could spur another wave of buying from exchange-traded funds that track the Nasdaq 100.
The X account of Alex Moore, a board member at the company, tweeted the quiet part out loud. Quite colorfully.
Per screengrabs of the message:
“We are moving @PalantirTech to Nasdaq because it will force billions in ETF buying and deliver ‘tendies’ to our retail investors. Player haters be aware that we’ve been hated for decades (plural). Everything we do is to reward and support our retail diamondhands following.”
The tweet, and the account itself, no longer exist on X. There are multiple screenshots of this message from different sources.
Tendies, as I’ve previously described in a feature on the WallStreetBets subreddit, are:
“Chicken tenders, the treat an overgrown man-child receives for being a ‘Good Boy.’ Figuratively speaking, tendies are the financial rewards that follow from a successful bold wager.”
Palantir, the top-performing stock in the S&P 500 this year, is a retail darling.

The company did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
