## Key points

- Investors are questioning Anthropic’s proposed $1.5 trillion IPO valuation.
- A postponement or lower price is possible.
- Revenue growth, infrastructure costs and market conditions are under scrutiny.

## Summary

Anthropic’s planned stock market listing, potentially valued at $1.5 trillion, may be delayed or priced lower after a sharp technology share sell-off unsettled prospective investors. The uncertainty matters because the debut could be one of the largest IPOs in history, but investors are questioning whether the company’s growth justifies such a high valuation amid rising costs and market volatility.

Three investors considering taking part reportedly favour a lower price, with one suggesting a valuation closer to $1 trillion. Anthropic was valued at $965 billion in May and reported revenue of more than $33 billion in the first nine months of 2026, though growth slowed between the second and third quarters. Its prospectus lists more than $800 billion in computing and infrastructure commitments over the coming decades; investors are also waiting for October revenue figures that were omitted from an updated filing.
