- Eric Schmidt reportedly owns about half as much of Anthropic as CEO Dario Amodei
According to Bloomberg, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt owns about 1% of Anthropic after investing tens of millions of dollars in its 2021 Series A round, when PitchBook data valued the startup at $461 million. That stake is roughly half the 2% held by co-founder and CEO Dario Amodei, and Anthropic is widely expected to go public before the end of the year, with top market estimates of up to $2 trillion. At that valuation, Schmidt's stake could add as much as $20 billion to his net worth, which Bloomberg puts at $57.5 billion. The article notes Schmidt has been an active tech investor since stepping down as Google CEO in 2011, with bets including Mistral, General Intuition and Reflection AI. Neither Schmidt nor Anthropic immediately responded to requests for comment.
- Anthropic Will Be The Last AI IPO Of 2026, As Industry Collapses
Business Insider founder Henry Blodget noted Anthropic’s month-over-month revenue growth flattened last month, while the article says AI funding is tightening: CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) is paying up to 13% on new debt, SoftBank has debt problems, and as many as 1,000 communities are trying to block AI data centers. Borrowing for data centers could reach $1 trillion a year through 2030, and shares in AI data center company Elice fell 33% on its IPO launch, the worst opening day for a sizable Korean IPO according to Bloomberg data. The article says Anthropic could be valued at around $2 trillion on IPO day, but under GAAP it is not profitable despite management’s claims, and a trust controlling the board has incomplete disclosures. It concludes Anthropic may list, possibly below $2 trillion, while no other AI firm is likely to IPO this year.
- Dario Amodei's AI Safety Warning Is Colliding With Anthropic's IPO Timeline
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has repeatedly warned that AI models could advance faster than the safeguards to control them, yet the company is still reportedly aiming for a November IPO. On Oct. 14, New York City Comptroller Mark Levine urged a delay until safety and governance concerns are addressed; according to Bloomberg, Anthropic contacted him, but no change to the timeline was reported. Anthropic had already paused some high-risk training and reported further misalignment and security incidents on Oct. 9. Its draft IPO structure would give seven co-founders 50.1% of voting power through Founder LLC, limiting the influence of public shareholders. Investors were reportedly discussing a valuation near $1.5 trillion instead of the $2 trillion target, citing slowing revenue growth and rising infrastructure costs, though the article found no established evidence that safety restrictions were behind this.
- Anthropic sets aside 5% stake for public benefit fund ahead of November IPO
Ahead of its planned November IPO, Anthropic will put a 5% equity stake into a new public benefit fund, worth at least $50 billion and possibly near $100 billion at a $2 trillion valuation. The company will also add 2% more equity to the fund for every 50% rise in valuation, so public buyers would keep a smaller share of gains. The fund is a company-controlled LLC that cannot lobby or make political donations, but the board decides where the money goes and how much is donated, giving public shareholders little say in governance. Critics, including Elon Musk and David Sacks, argue the money should be given away directly, while the article links the timing to public backlash against AI.
- Anthropic is giving away 5% of the company. Why is everyone mad?
Anthropic has pledged 5% of its company to the public, roughly $100 billion at its rumoured IPO valuation, which the host describes as the largest philanthropic capital raise ever. The shares would go to NGOs, charities and certain populations chosen by Anthropic rather than directly to the public, a lack of clarity that fuels criticism. A deeper concern is that AI could wipe out 50% of white-collar jobs within one to five years, as Dario Modi has said, raising questions about how people would earn a living and whether universal basic income would be needed. The episode compares this with earlier ideas, including Sam Altman's American Equity Fund and OpenAI's nonprofit restructuring, and suggests such moves may be hard to stop.

- JPMorgan Puts a Number on Bitcoin for the First Time: 10% a Year, With a Big Caveat
J.P. Morgan Asset Management projected a 10% compound annual return for Bitcoin over the next 10 to 15 years in its 2027 Long-Term Capital Market Assumptions, the first time the report includes the asset. That forecast tops its estimates for U.S. large-cap stocks (7.5%), gold (5.5%) and a 60/40 stock-bond portfolio (7%), but the report puts Bitcoin's annualized volatility at 55%, versus about 17% for gold. The firm still excludes Bitcoin from its main covariance matrices, citing volatility and unstable correlations, and rejected the currency debasement bull case as “wide of the mark.” Bitwise's Matt Hougan welcomed the forecast but argued the 55% volatility assumption is too high, making the return estimate too conservative. Meanwhile, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $526.7 million on Monday, trimming October's net outflows to about $88 million.

- Archer vs Joby: What's the Better eVTOL Stock to Buy Right Now?
The article compares Joby Aviation and Archer Aviation, two eVTOL (flying taxi) companies nearing FAA approval but still unprofitable. For the six months ended June 30, Archer had $1.6 billion in cash and short-term investments and used $305.5 million in operations, while Joby had $2.3 billion and used $317.6 million, so Joby may need a smaller cash infusion. Joby generated $38.6 million in revenue last quarter, helped by its Blade Air Mobility passenger business, but its net loss was $245 million versus Archer's $263 million. Joby's $4.7 billion market cap is well above Archer's $3.1 billion, and the author favors Archer on valuation. Both stocks remain highly volatile and face a long road before turning profitable.
- Stock Market Today, Oct. 20: Netflix Q3 Revenue Rises 12% on Pricing Power
Netflix closed at $68.66, down 1.70%, ahead of its after-close Q3 report, and was down 5.1% in after-hours trading as of 4:31 p.m. ET. Q3 revenue rose 12% year over year to $12.9 billion, and diluted EPS climbed from $0.59 to $0.87. Netflix outperformed every metric for which it provides quarterly guidance, with larger profit surprises than revenue surprises, but its fourth-quarter guidance looked muted, with slower sales growth and lower profit from seasonal effects and impairment costs tied to recently announced job cuts. That day, the S&P 500 closed at 7,711 (up 0.26%) and the Nasdaq Composite at 26,425 (down 0.02%).
- 2 Dividend Stocks Crushing the Market in 2026 (and Which Ones Can Keep Going)
The article examines Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN), two dividend stocks that have outperformed the market in 2026. For J&J, revenue and earnings beat expectations and guidance was slightly raised, but its medtech unit faces weaker Impella demand and a Class 1 recall in the U.S.; the article still sees long-term prospects intact, citing new drug launches, the OTTAVA surgical system, a proposed $5.5 billion talc settlement and a 64-year dividend increase streak. Amgen's second-quarter revenue rose 10% to $10.1 billion despite FDA moves to remove Tavneos and falling denosumab sales after losing exclusivity. The article says growth drivers such as Tezspire, Tepezza and the MariTide obesity candidate could offset these headwinds.
