Investors heading into the week of Nov. 16 are watching two AI-linked events: Nvidia's quarterly results and Anthropic's planned initial public offering, CNBC reported1.
Nvidia is scheduled to report Tuesday after the close, with Colette Kress serving as interim chief executive after Jensen Huang left the company1.
CNBC said Nvidia shares ended last week down about 13% while some other large technology stocks rose, and that traders will look for succession comments as well as the usual demand outlook1.
Anthropic, the maker of the Claude models, launched an IPO roadshow and said it plans to offer 825 million Class A shares at $70 to $78 each, listing on Nasdaq as ANT3,14.
The company said 801.4 million shares would be sold by Anthropic and 23.6 million by existing holders, with underwriters able to buy up to 123.75 million more3.
At the top of that range, TechCrunch said the implied fully diluted value would be about $1.404 trillion, with IPO proceeds of up to about $64.35 billion before a separate private sale13,8,9.
Anthropic also described a $26 billion private placement of non-voting Class N stock at the IPO price to chip and cloud companies including Google and Nvidia13,9.
Al Jazeera and TechCrunch, citing the filing, said third-quarter revenue was $17 billion and that Anthropic put an October revenue run-rate near $81 billion, with large compute commitments on the other side of the ledger9,13.
Each of seven co-founders plans to sell the same block of shares, about $250 million at the $74 midpoint, TechCrunch reported4,13.
BBC noted the listing comes after a sharp Nasdaq drop tied to political and spending worries around AI infrastructure8.
Reuters reported, via Bloomberg, that bankers described the deal as about six times oversubscribed5.
Japan Times compared the cash raise with SpaceX's record IPO while using a lower market-value figure based on shares outstanding in the filing, illustrating how outlets differ on the headline valuation10,13.
