Anthropic IPO Reveals a Hidden Gap Between Growth and Cash

Anthropic's IPO filing shows quarterly revenue surging into the billions, yet the AI company is still running a large net loss as costs climb. Fiona Cincotta, StoneX Senior Market Analyst, explains why investors are looking past headline revenue to free cash flow. Anthropic, the company behind Claude and Claude Code, relies heavily on cloud partners Amazon, Google and Microsoft. Heavy AI infrastructure spending is why free cash flow matters, as Meta's first negative free cash flow since 2012 showed. Alphabet, Microsoft and Amazon earnings now test whether AI spending is paying off, with the Nasdaq under pressure.
