The New York Times reports on a data-mining software company that, on Thursday, was expected to file a notice that it has raised $100 million, putting a $9 billion valuation on the company. Palantir Technologies, which started as a CIA-funded data-mining company, just three months ago raised $196 million on a $6 billion valuation.
