The market is undergoing a significant sentiment correction. While '600B+' remains the dominant consensus (current price 66c), it has retraced sharply from its recent high of 81c, indicating that the initial euphoria is fading. The previous surge was likely driven by unsubstantiated rumors or short-term hype, and the current correction reflects a reassessment of the actual difficulty of achieving a $600B valuation by late 2027. Capital is flowing back into 'No IPO' (rising from 14c to 20.5c) and intermediate valuation brackets ('400-600B' rebounding from 3c to nearly 7c), suggesting the market is hedging against regulatory risks or IPO delays. The Fair Value model suggests that while Anthropic has immense potential, pricing a >$600B IPO at 66% probability is still a premium trade, and a rational distribution should more evenly cover the 'No IPO' and '400-600B' scenarios.

Hedging
AMZN
GOOGL
Anthropic's IPO valuation will directly impact the investment return expectations and stock performance of its major backers, Amazon (AMZN) and Google (GOOGL). An extremely high valuation (e.g., >$100B) would benefit these giants and boost sentiment across the AI sector; conversely, a failed IPO or low valuation could dampen confidence in the monetization potential of generative AI. Microsoft (MSFT), as the backer of rival OpenAI, would also be indirectly affected.
Movers
March 14, 2026 - March 17, 2026, the price of the '600B+' option plummeted from 80.5c to 66c, while '<100B' (rose from 1c to 4.3c) and '400-600B' (rose from 2.8c to 6.85c) saw significant rebounds. The reason is a market correction of the extremely optimistic 'titan IPO' narrative from early March; likely influenced by a macro tech correction or a lack of further positive catalysts, investors have begun hedging tail risks.
March 2, 2026 - March 5, 2026, the price of the '600B+' option skyrocketed from ~32c to over 80c, becoming the overwhelmingly dominant outcome. The reason was a sudden shift to an extreme binary consensus, where the market believed Anthropic would either fail to IPO or IPO at over $600B, momentarily discarding the probability of moderate valuation growth.
Divergence
Despite the price correction, the prediction market still assigns a 66% probability that Anthropic's IPO market cap will exceed $600B. This represents a significant divergence from traditional financial analysis. While mainstream institutions are bullish on AI, valuing a private tech company at over $600B (equivalent to the size of Tesla or Broadcom in 2024) by 2026-2027 is an exceptionally rare forecast, typically requiring flawless execution and AGI breakthroughs. In contrast, the prediction market exhibits a more aggressive 'winner-takes-all' belief, whereas traditional views would likely lean towards the $200B-$400B range.
