what happened

Anthropic PBC has chosen JPMorgan Chase to run US share sales to individual investors in its initial public offering, which could set a record.

TradingView, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that the retail portion may reach roughly 15% to 20% of the total offering. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon is expected to take part in the bank's campaign personally.

JPMorgan is also handling the retail push for SpaceX's $86.2 billion IPO, which drew more than $100 billion of individual demand, Bloomberg News has reported. Citigroup will coordinate the international retail offering in Australia, Canada, Japan, parts of the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the UK. Deliberations are ongoing, so the retail share could still change.

Investors have told bankers that a fair valuation is around $1.4 to $1.5 trillion, though something closer to $1.75 trillion is possibly achievable, according to Bloomberg News. Anthropic and OpenAI are both seeking record sums amid scrutiny over AI safety.

why it matters

Offerings of this scale shift capital between large companies. Meta Platforms has launched a plan to raise up to $98 billion in equity, and Alphabet earlier announced $85 billion, so the flow of new shares is growing and may weigh on tech stock prices.
