Anthropic IPO Could Draw Record $250 Million Retail Buying as Hyperliquid Volume Hits $270 Million

3 articles · Updated · Yahoo Finance · Nov 11

Summary

  • $250 million in net retail buying could hit Anthropic on its first trading day next week, Vanda Research said, which would top the $118 million retail inflow seen in SpaceX's June debut.
  • $270 million in Anthropic-linked perpetual futures traded on Hyperliquid on Tuesday, nearly triple last week's daily volumes; Vanda said recent IPOs drew opening-day retail activity about five times peak pre-IPO derivatives volume.
  • The forecast is only a sentiment gauge, since the crypto-linked contracts are speculative and past IPO trading patterns may not hold when Anthropic lists.
  • Anthropic is targeting a $1.4 trillion valuation—down from the $2 trillion previously discussed—and plans to reserve up to 20% of the deal for retail buyers through brokerages including Schwab, Fidelity, E-Trade, Robinhood and SoFi.
