Anthropic is eyeing an IPO as soon as October. Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan are already on the deal. The AI company behind Claude could go public before OpenAI.
The race to own a piece of the AI revolution just went public. Literally.
Anthropic. The safety-focused AI lab founded by former OpenAI researchers. The company building Claude. Backed by Amazon, Google, and Spark Capital with a valuation that has climbed aggressively as the AI arms race intensified.
And they may beat OpenAI to the public markets entirely.
Think about the timing of this.
OpenAI just offered the US government a $42.6 billion stake to seed a national wealth fund. Apple sued OpenAI for trade secret theft. The AI sector is simultaneously the most hyped and most legally contested space in technology.
And Anthropic is potentially going public in October.
Morgan Stanley. Goldman Sachs. JPMorgan. The three most powerful underwriters on Wall Street on a single deal. That lineup does not get assembled for a routine offering. That is the team you hire when you expect massive institutional demand and want the most credible names in finance validating the story.
The public markets have been desperate for a pure-play AI investment at scale. Nvidia captures the infrastructure trade. Microsoft captures the integration trade. But a standalone frontier AI lab going public is something investors have not had access to before.
The Buffett Indicator just hit 238% of GDP. Americans are holding record cash at the 100th percentile of history. And the hottest IPO of the decade could land in October.
Every one of those cash holders just got a reason to deploy.
