#AnthropicIPOincoming Anthropic picked Morgan Stanley and Goldman as lead underwriters. JPMorgan co-managing. IPO could come as early as October 🏦 $965B valuation. $47B annualized revenue run rate. Already surpassed OpenAI as the world's highest-valued private AI company — by $113B 📈 But here's the interesting part: Anthropic is choosing to IPO before OpenAI. That means it sets the public market pricing anchor for the entire AI unicorn wave. If it holds — great. If it breaks below offering price, it drags OpenAI's valuation expectations down with it 💀 And October is only 4 months away. AI moves fast. The competitive landscape, the model releases, the enterprise deals — all of that can shift dramatically between now and listing day 🫠 Is Anthropic racing to catch a window while sentiment is hot? Or has the valuation already reached a point where they need public markets to take on the risk? 🤔 Two very different reads. Which one do you believe? 👇
