Anthropic refuses to delay its IPO! But its valuation is being called into question—from $2 trillion to $1 trillion?
Anthropic is NOT backing down. Despite market turbulence, the creator of Claude says it will NOT delay its IPO.
According to some sources, Anthropic still plans to go public before Thanksgiving, with the goal of raising between $80 billion and $100 billion. But the real issue is the valuation.
It was once valued at $2 trillion. Then banks lowered it to $1.4–$1.5 trillion. Today, many major investors are rejecting that price and want it closer to $1.1 trillion, or even $1 trillion. That means $500 billion to $900 billion has vanished before the company has even gone public.
The confusion intensified when Anthropic briefly sent banks a plan to raise $69.3 billion, then withdrew it, saying the figure was wrong.
The IPO has NOT been canceled: its S-1 filing is still available on the SEC website, but confidence has been shaken.
So tell me honestly: is Anthropic showing confidence or desperation?
If investors say NO to a $1.5 trillion valuation, will Anthropic lower its price or postpone the offering?
Comment: GO AHEAD or POSTPONE? The best comment will be featured in my next post.
