rohanpaul_ai · x · 2026-11-12
FT reports Anthropic's bankers plan to raise the IPO price after heavy investor demand, targeting a $1.5T+ valuation. Filing set $70–$78/share ($1.26T–$1.41T fully diluted); pricing above could push proceeds past $100B including $26B from Google, Nvidia and Microsoft. Anthropic sells 801M new shares while holders sell only 23.6M—cash funds $900B of planned compute spending. Still above OpenAI's $1.25T private valuation; ticker "ANT" on Nasdaq.
