Major investors have revised Anthropic's valuation ahead of the company's IPO, which should take place before November 26. Initially, before the market crash, it was discussed in the $1.5-2 trillion range. However, after a sharp decline in technology stocks (including a 5.5% collapse in the Nasdaq index and a loss of approximately $2.3 trillion in market value), investors began to change expectations downward. Some investors are discussing a valuation in the $1.2 trillion to $1.3 trillion range, according to Bloomberg. At the same time, some market participants still believe that even this figure may be too high, allowing an estimate closer to a trillion dollars. The decision was influenced by several factors, but one in particular stands out - the results of the midterm elections in the United States. The victory of Democrats, who are more skeptical about the development of AI infrastructure, increased the political risks.
