On August 22, The New York Times reported that two insiders revealed Anthropic, a San Francisco-based company, indicated in discussions with potential investors that it may seek to raise over $100 billion in its initial public offering (IPO). The insiders stated that this offering could also push the company's valuation to $2 trillion. If successful, the five-year-old Anthropic would set the record for the largest IPO in history, surpassing the record set by Elon Musk's SpaceX in June, which had a valuation of $1.77 trillion and raised $85.7 billion at its IPO. This would also represent a significant leap for Anthropic, which was valued at $900 billion in a recent round of private financing and submitted its IPO application in June.

On August 22, JPMorgan stated that although major U.S. stock indices remain on an upward trend, the market faces greater correction risks as summer transitions to early fall. The bank's strategists noted that current internal market indicators are weakening, funds are beginning to shift towards defensive assets, and investor confidence in AI-related stocks has also diminished. JPMorgan strategist Jason Hunter pointed out that the current trading frenzy surrounding AI stocks bears similarities to the tech bubble period from 1999 to 2000, suggesting that market positions in tech stocks may be overly concentrated. Additionally, factors such as rising U.S. Treasury yields, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and weak consumer spending could further increase market pressure. JPMorgan cautioned that while the long-term growth trend for the AI industry remains strong, short-term high valuations, crowded trades, and shifts in market sentiment could trigger volatility, and investors should be vigilant about potential fall sell-off risks.
