According to reports, Anthropic is preparing to set its valuation range and could begin trading as soon as next week. This move comes at a challenging time for tech listings following recent market selloffs. Institutional investors are reportedly pushing for a valuation lower than previous ambitious targets, reflecting a more cautious sentiment in the sector. Meanwhile, its main competitor OpenAI recently secured fresh capital at a valuation that also fell short of its initial high expectations, highlighting a cooling trend in investor enthusiasm for massive AI valuations.
