What happened

  • Anthropic, the maker of the Claude AI chatbot, set an IPO price range of $70 to $78 per share, targeting a value of up to $1.4 trillion including potential future shares.
  • All seven co-founders plan to sell shares worth about $250 million each at the midpoint of that range, according to the company’s filing.
  • The offering includes 825 million shares from Anthropic and existing shareholders and could raise up to $64.4 billion.
  • Major technology companies have also agreed to invest $26 billion in a separate share sale, including $10 billion each from Google and Nvidia.
  • Trading is expected to begin next week, testing investor demand as some prospective investors question whether Anthropic’s growth justifies its huge computing costs.

How the left told it

Left-leaning outlets largely framed the enormous IPO as a test of investor appetite amid doubts about AI spending. The Guardian highlighted the retreat from earlier $2 trillion expectations, while CNN described a potential “once-in-a-generation opportunity” or “massive financial gamble.” The New York Times also examined windfalls for Google and Amazon.

How the right told it

Right-leaning outlets largely framed the IPO as a blockbuster deal tempered by lower valuation expectations and concerns about AI costs. The New York Post emphasized the discount to an earlier $2 trillion target; Fox Business highlighted Wall Street’s growing caution about infrastructure spending. The Epoch Times focused on whether growth can last.
