Anthropic is NOT delaying. Anthropic is NOT cancelling.
It is fighting over price.
What Happened?
Anthropic sent banks a filing: 866.7M shares at $70-$80 = raise up to $69.3B.
Hours later, it withdrew it. Said pricing was "inaccurate."
No corrected filing yet. S-1 is still live, price range still blank.
Roadshow starts Tuesday. Pricing next week. Listing before Thanksgiving.
Valuation War:
May 2026 Private Round: $965B
October Talk: $2.0T
Mid-October: $1.5T
Now Investors Say: $1.2T - $1.3T
One Big Investor Says: Closer to $1.0T
That is $500B - $1T wiped out before listing.
Why Investors Are Scared?
Q3 Revenue: $16.96B, +47% QoQ - still massive
But Future Commitments: $895.4B - mostly for compute
H1 Net Loss: $80.7B reported
Nasdaq -5.5% on Nov 5, worst day since April 2025
Why Anthropic Is NOT Backing Down?
$26B private placement already lined up from 7 giants:
Google, Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, Micron, Microsoft, TSMC
At IPO price. Right after listing.
$112.4B cash on hand. It does not NEED this IPO. It wants it.
My Take:
This IPO is the AI bubble test.
If Anthropic prices at $1.5T, AI trade is alive.
If it cuts to $1.0T or delays, whole AI sector reprices lower.
Anthropic said NO to delay. Now market has to say YES to price.
Is Anthropic worth $1.5T or $1.0T?
Comment *1.5T* or *1.0T*
