## Key points

- Anthropic is reportedly pressing ahead with an IPO.
- Trading could begin next Thursday or Friday.
- Investors may push for a valuation below $1.5 trillion.

## Summary

Anthropic is reportedly preparing to proceed with an initial public offering despite a turbulent market and uncertainty around the AI boom. The listing could become a major test of investor appetite for AI companies, with its valuation likely to shape expectations for the sector.

The Wall Street Journal reports that Anthropic plans to set a valuation range this week and begin trading next Thursday or Friday. Some institutional investors are said to favour a valuation below the $1.5 trillion target discussed last week, down from a $2 trillion figure floated months ago. Rival OpenAI was reportedly valued at $1.25 trillion after raising $11 billion, below the $20 billion it had initially sought.
