    Anthropic plans to raise up to $100 billion in IPO, scale may exceed SpaceX record

    Sina Tech, citing a Reuters report, said that Anthropic, the company behind Claude, plans an IPO to raise at least an amount benchmarked against the $86 billion record set by SpaceX in June, with an upper limit potentially reaching $100 billion. The article notes that Meta has just completed a $38 billion offering of common and preferred stock and plans to raise another $60 billion through targeted additional issuance starting next year, showing investors are still willing to make large commitments to the AI theme. However, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield has risen from 4.5% to 5%, the average gain for most U.S. IPOs this year is only 2%, and Goldman Sachs believes large IPOs will only bring short-term pressure.
