Anthropic Files for IPO

The long-awaited S-1 filing from Anthropic has finally landed and, if all goes smoothly, it could bookend a year of two of the biggest IPOs in history. It may also restart a stalled IPO market that’s been waiting on it. Markets have been choppy in the runup to the mega-IPO from the first frontier AI lab to try and tap the public for much needed funding. Ed Ludlow, Bloomberg Tech Host and Seth Fiegerman, Bloomberg News AI Editor have the details. Plus, Axel Merk, President and Chief Investment Officer, Merk Investments says that markets are fundamentally misunderstanding the Warsh Fed. And Bloomberg Balance of Power co-hosts Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz preview US Midterms.
