Anthropic's IPO Valuation Could Fall by $900 Billion as Investors Question the AI Boom

Anthropic's anticipated $2 trillion IPO valuation faces mounting skepticism as investors reassess AI infrastructure costs, market volatility and the sustainability of the industry's growth.

Investors are reportedly reconsidering Anthropic's anticipated $2 trillion initial public offering valuation, with some potential buyers suggesting the artificial intelligence company could be worth approximately $1.1 trillion.

According to Bloomberg, the reassessment follows a sharp technology-sector selloff, including a 5.5% decline in the Nasdaq Composite on Thursday and a nearly 12% retreat from its October peak.

Anthropic's approaching IPO has become a critical test of investor confidence in artificial intelligence, particularly as leading developers commit hundreds of billions of dollars to computing infrastructure.

The uncertainty intensifies questions raised by Anthropic's IPO disclosures about revenue growth, profitability and enormous computing commitments.

It also contrasts with Masayoshi Son's prediction that AI infrastructure could require $5 trillion annually by 2040.

A substantially lower valuation could reshape expectations for other AI companies preparing public offerings. However, the figures reflect investor discussions, not a finalized IPO price, and Anthropic's ultimate valuation remains uncertain.
