Anthropic has filed its Form S-1 with the SEC for an IPO under the ticker “ANT,” with an expected $2 trillion valuation based on a $100B raise. The filing reports $16.3B in revenue for the first half of 2026, up 1,300% year over year, and about 12,000 enterprise customers spending $100k or more annually. It also shows $131.7B in cash and short-term investments, the third-largest among US non-bank companies behind Alphabet, which the article says undercuts cash-burn concerns despite roughly a half trillion in noncancelable compute commitments to Alphabet, SpaceX and Amazon over the next decade. Anthropic posted a small profit in Q2 2026, and the article suggests Amazon and Google, its two largest stakeholders, stand to benefit most if the IPO meets expectations. The company is also building political influence, having become one of the largest Democratic donors while hiring former Trump cabinet members.

- Brad Gerstner Says Anthropic Is “Stomping on the Gas.” Amazon and Google Sell the Fuel
Anthropic's amended IPO filing shows third-quarter revenue of about $17 billion, up 46% from $11.6 billion in the second quarter, while compute and infrastructure costs rose 77%. Compute costs reached $9.9 billion, close to 60% of revenue, and the company posted a $567 million operating loss, driven mainly by $5 billion of short-term computing, after a $974 million operating profit in the second quarter. Its $895 billion of commitments are almost seven times the $132 billion of cash and short-term investments at the end of September, with major suppliers including Broadcom (about $161 billion of equipment leases), Google ($121.3 billion) and Amazon ($110 billion). The article argues that much of this depends on Anthropic raising more capital, including up to $77 billion of conditional financing from its own suppliers, with Broadcom carrying the most exposure.
- Anthropic's IPO Is Coming: 5 Key Numbers Investors Need to Know
Anthropic has filed for an IPO, and investors may be able to buy shares as early as next month in what could be the largest IPO ever. Revenue reached $16.3 billion in the first six months of 2026, up 1,300% year over year, while the company still posted a $693 million operating loss, down from $2.1 billion a year earlier. About 20% of revenue came from two customers, and compute spending hit $8.9 billion in the first half, already more than the $7.3 billion spent in all of 2025. Anthropic estimates it may spend up to $750 billion on compute, which could drive heavy cash burn and frequent stock offerings that dilute shareholders. The article warns that investing this early is extremely risky, citing SpaceX's sharp decline after its first few trading days.
- Anthropic kicks off mammoth stock market float despite investor jitters
Anthropic filed its S-1 in the US on Monday, setting out its pitch for a first public stock sale expected to be one of the biggest listings in history, with shares to trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker ANT. The move comes amid investor jitters about AI, after shares of 'neocloud' data-centre companies tumbled in recent weeks and Meta shares slumped after it unveiled plans to spend hundreds of billions on the technology. The 335-page filing shows rapid revenue growth but a loss of $80.7bn (£60.5bn) in the first half of 2026, compared with $13bn a year earlier. Anthropic is reportedly seeking a valuation of $1.5tn to $2tn and could raise as much as $100bn, which at the top end would exceed the $86bn SpaceX raised in June. The company says its technology could cure diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's, but also warns that AI could destroy jobs and may pose catastrophic or existential risks to humanity.
- AI giant Anthropic files for blockbuster IPO
AI giant Anthropic, maker of Claude, has filed for an IPO and aims to price the offering in mid-November. Its S-1 shows first-half 2026 revenue of $16.3 billion and a net loss of $80.7 billion, while the share count and price range have not been disclosed. The FT reports investors expect a valuation of $1.5–1.75 trillion, and Fox Business says pricing on Nov. 19 or 20 remains on track. Chip stocks rose premarket, with Nvidia up 1.4%, Broadcom up 1.5% and Micron up 2.3%. On Hyperliquid, the ANTH contract spiked to about $1,980 around the filing time, then fell roughly 6% to about $1,857 within minutes, with about $12 million traded over 24 hours.
- Alphabet Is Set to Become an Even Bigger Anthropic Shareholder After the IPO
Anthropic, one of the fastest-growing AI companies, could become the biggest IPO in history at a targeted $2 trillion valuation, above SpaceX's $1.77 trillion debut. Alphabet is estimated to own about 14%, starting with a 10% stake for about $300 million in late 2022 and early 2023, then investing $500 million more and agreeing to invest $1.5 billion additional. According to Anthropic's S-1, Alphabet has an exclusive option to buy up to $10 billion in additional shares at the IPO price and $20 billion in unused investment capacity. At $2 trillion, Alphabet's stake would be worth $280 billion, and the article suggests Alphabet will likely remain the second-largest shareholder behind Amazon, which holds 15%-20%. Anthropic's post-money valuation of $965 billion is already reflected in Alphabet's net income, and that value would more than double at a $2 trillion IPO.

Vietnam's goods import-export turnover for the first 10 months of 2026 reached US$1,010.55 billion, up 32.3% year on year, the first time it has surpassed US$1 trillion. In October, two-way trade hit US$122.03 billion, with exports of US$64.67 billion and imports of US$57.36 billion, giving a US$7.31 billion trade surplus and marking the second consecutive monthly surplus.

Economist Nguyen Tri Hieu said the shift to a surplus could improve foreign currency supply and help stabilize the exchange rate. Economist Dinh Trong Thinh credited the result partly to government and ministry export policies.

- What Silver Standard Resources (SSRM) Said on Its Q3 Earnings Call
SSR Mining (NASDAQ: SSRM) produced nearly 104,000 gold-equivalent ounces in the third quarter and remains on track to meet full-year production guidance, but expects all-in sustaining costs to end about 10% above the top of its guidance range due to Puna mine-plan changes, higher royalties, diesel, labor and supplies. Quarterly revenue was $448 million and free cash flow before working-capital changes was about $111 million; at quarter-end, the company held $1.6 billion in cash, no debt and $2.2 billion in total liquidity. An updated Marigold plan extends the mine's reserve life to 2040, while the planned Converse acquisition could add 150,000–170,000 ounces of annual gold production from the early 2030s. In the first nine months of 2026, the company repurchased nearly 17 million shares and reinstated its dividend.
