[Watcher Guru] JUST IN: Anthropic plans to IPO before thanksgiving at $1.5 trillion valuation, FT reports.

Anthropic is planning an initial public offering before Thanksgiving at a valuation of roughly $1.5 trillion, according to the Financial Times. The AI developer would debut at a scale that ranks among the largest listings on record, though the report did not specify the amount of capital being raised. The timing would place the offering in a crowded late-year window and test public-market appetite for AI assets at a moment when private valuations have climbed sharply. The $1.5 trillion figure, if realized, would make Anthropic one of the most valuable companies to list in the U.S. Watch for the formal filing, which should disclose share count, pricing range and underwriters, along with any update to the valuation as the Thanksgiving deadline approaches.
