According to Decrypt, investors have indicated to The Wall Street Journal that Anthropic’s current $1.5 trillion target valuation appears overly high given recent market conditions. The reassessment comes as private prediction markets place the company’s initial public offering (IPO) timing around December. No official statement from Anthropic or its underwriters has been released regarding a revised valuation. The Wall Street Journal reported receiving input from investors who expressed that the $1.5 trillion figure no longer aligns with prevailing market sentiment following a broader downturn in AI-related stocks. The timing of Anthropic’s IPO remains uncertain, with December cited by prediction markets as a possible window. No details were provided about the size of the potential valuation reduction, the scope of investor input, or Anthropic’s internal plans. The report reflects investor commentary alone and does not include statements from company representatives.
