Anthropic plans to launch an initial public offering in mid-November at a target valuation of up to $2 trillion, but the recent selloff in AI stocks has complicated its timing, BlockBeats reported on October 24.
Funding needs complicate the decision
The report cited a roughly 30% fall in CoreWeave shares over two weeks and a 17% decline in Micron over the past month amid concerns about AI capital spending and financing.
Some market participants cited in the report said a delay was possible. Other analysts argued that Anthropic needs funds for computing investment and could face tougher private financing conditions, giving it a reason to keep pursuing the IPO. The report described uncertainty rather than a confirmed postponement.
