About AnthropicARRHits65B
Anthropic reportedly crossed $65B in annualized revenue by end of July, with preliminary Q2 revenue above $11.5B, up from $4.73B in Q1. It closed a $65B raise at a $965B post-money valuation and filed a confidential S-1 with the SEC in June. Some investors see annualized revenue reaching $100B to $120B by year end and have floated a $2T IPO valuation. Annualized revenue is not full-year recognized revenue, and those figures are not guidance. Watch revenue quality, retention and compute cost.

U.S. stocks rose (SPX +0.2%, NDX +0.6%) as tech advanced after Anthropic’s 2Q revenue jumped 14-fold from the same period in 2025, reinforcing sustained AI spending. 10yr treasury yields and oil edged lower while Bitcoin, gold, and silver gained. September Fed hike odds fell to 30% amid last week’s weak retail sales data. Korean chipmakers and U.S. tech hardware rose pre-mkt on surging AI demand. S&P 2026 EPS estimates reached $362 (+30% YoY), implying a 21.6x forward P/E matching the 10-year yield for the first time since early 2024, and before that the 2000 internet bubble. I remain cautious on $TSLA due to declining forward earnings estimates, intensifying autonomous competition, and an elevated valuation.
PANews Weekly Funding Report | Aug 10-16
Last week, AI fundraising remained concentrated in infrastructure and developer tools. AI data infrastructure company Databricks raised $5 billion in strategic funding, while multiple robotics companies secured nine-figure rounds.
At the application layer, AI coding remained one of the most active categories, while robotics and embodied AI continued to see strong investor interest.
Crypto funding also showed a clearer shift toward regulated and permissioned businesses. In the first half of the year, crypto startups raised $11.2 billion, with disclosed capital flowing mainly into payments and stablecoins, prediction markets, exchanges, and trading platforms.
Globally, 4 blockchain funding events were recorded, with total disclosed capital raised exceeding $18 million.
In addition, several Wall Street giants partnered with NVIDIA to advance a $500 billion AI financing initiative.

The market isn't questioning AI anymore. It's questioning the price it's willing to pay for it.
Revenue keeps beating expectations, yet stocks keep selling off. That's usually what happens when expectations run faster than reality. Strong businesses can still produce disappointing stocks if valuations get ahead of fundamentals. Would you still be buying here?
Anthropic’s reported move past $65B in annualized revenue changes the central question from whether enterprise AI demand exists to how durable and economical that demand can become. Preliminary Q2 revenue above $11.5B, versus $4.73B in Q1, is striking, while the $65B raise and confidential S-1 suggest capital formation is advancing alongside growth.
My measured view: a floated $2T IPO valuation will depend less on the headline run rate than on retention, revenue quality and compute costs. The $100B–$120B year-end estimates are investor expectations, not guidance. NFA — do your own work.

Back in 2025, OpenAI's arr was more than twice of Anthropic's.
7 months later,
- Anthropic arr at $65B; OpenAI arr at $40B
- Anthropic is now $25B ahead of OpenAI
- In terms of growth, Anthropic has grown more than 7x, while OpenAI has merely doubled its revenue compared to 2025
In 2028,
- Anthropic is projected to reach $195B in arr
- compared to OpenAI's $100B
With Anthropic’s IPO expected in Q4, likely October, at a ~$2T valuation, overtaking OpenAI in ARR would be a major boost to its IPO story.
