Anthropic heads for lower than expected $1.3 trillion valuation in stock market debut
The AI company behind the Claude chatbot will offer its shares at between $70 and $78.

Script
Panel 1
A crowded trading floor at a stock exchange. Traders are shouting orders, screens are flashing with numbers. One trader, wearing a headset, holds a tablet displaying the IPO details of Anthropic. Trader (into headset)
Trader: Anthropic IPO at $70 to $78 a share. Can you believe the buzz about this AI?
Panel 2
The same trader looks at his tablet, then glances at a ticker tape machine scrolling real-time stock prices. His face is a mix of curiosity and skepticism. Trader (to himself, shaking head)
Trader: A trillion-dollar valuation for a chatbot? Seems like they’ve cornered the market on optimism.
Panel 3
The trader looks up from his tablet to see a screen displaying a sudden drop in the stock price of Anthropic, falling sharply below the expected range. Trader (sarcastically)
Trader: Well, looks like the market’s AI just learned to be more realistic.
