Anthropic's Investors Want a $2 Trillion IPO. The Last Record-Setting IPO Has Made Its Buyers Nothing in Two Months.

Key PointsAnthropic's backers reportedly expect an October listing at a $2 trillion valuation or more, which would top SpaceX's June debut as the largest IPO ever.

Anthropic's investors are reportedly seeking a $2 trillion valuation or more for the company's potential initial public offering, expected to take place in October. This would surpass SpaceX's June debut as the largest IPO ever.

According to the Motley Fool, Anthropic has filed a confidential draft registration statement, but has not publicly confirmed a valuation, date, exchange, or ticker. The company is expected to match or beat the size of SpaceX's record raise.

SpaceX's IPO, which is currently the largest on record, was priced at a valuation of about $1.77 trillion in June and has so far yielded nothing for its buyers just two months in.
