Anthropic selects Nasdaq for IPO as Nvidia considers investment
Anthropic has chosen the Nasdaq for its initial public offering, with reports suggesting an October launch. The company is projecting a second consecutive quarter of adjusted profit to address investor concerns regarding cash burn. Nvidia is in talks to invest up to $10 billion in the offering. Some reports indicate the company is courting investors for a valuation that could reach $2 trillion.
