WSJ: Anthropic to List on Nasdaq Next Week, Some Investors Call for Lower IPO Valuation

on November 10, according to the Wall Street Journal citing informed sources, Claude creator Anthropic plans to advance its initial public offering (IPO) amid recent volatility in the AI sector. The company is expected to hold meetings with major investors this week, targeting a listing on the Nasdaq exchange next Thursday or Friday under the ticker symbol ANT.

Anthropic is expected to disclose the IPO price range and offering size early this week. Although investors had previously valued the company at approximately $1.5 trillion, recent sell-offs in AI stocks have prompted some large investors to demand a lower valuation. The company has recently discussed pricing terms with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, and its final valuation may be significantly lower than the roughly $2 trillion discussed several months ago.

Informed sources stated that Anthropic could still delay its listing plans depending on market conditions.
