Anthropic, the artificial intelligence company behind the popular Claude chatbot, is preparing for a major stock market listing on the Nasdaq exchange in the United States. The company aims to raise up to $64.4 billion through its initial public offering (IPO), making it one of the largest stock market listings in history. Anthropic plans to offer shares at an estimated price of $70 to $78 each, with its shares expected to trade under the symbol ANT.
The planned listing reflects Anthropic’s rapid growth and increasing demand for artificial intelligence technology. The company has attracted significant attention from major technology investors, including Google, Nvidia and Microsoft. Its Claude AI products have helped increase its revenue, which reached approximately $16.96 billion in the third quarter of 2026. The company is also seeking additional investment through a separate $26 billion private placement.
However, the listing comes at a time when investors are becoming more cautious about the AI industry. Concerns about high development costs, market competition and whether AI companies can generate enough profit have created uncertainty in financial markets. Despite these challenges, Anthropic’s planned IPO could become a major milestone for the technology industry and test investors’ confidence in the future of artificial intelligence.
