Anthropic IPO storylines to watch

Anthropic filed a confidential registration statement with the SEC. It could be one of three U.S. companies to go public this year at a valuation exceeding $1 trillion. The company is ahead of OpenAI and xAI owner SpaceX in the AI race due to early enterprise focus. Google plans to raise $80 billion to strengthen its AI development. The IPO may mark the first time a U.S. exchange hosts a $1 trillion valuation company. This shift could redefine how AI firms access capital.
