Lead: Nvidia is in talks to put up to $10 billion into Anthropic’s IPO. Two people familiar with the matter told Reuters that Anthropic wants to raise as much as $100 billion at around a $2 trillion valuation, and that Nvidia is considering an anchor stake of up to $10 billion. The listing is expected before the US midterms in November. Plans can still change; Anthropic declined to comment and Nvidia had not responded. Analysis: an Nvidia cheque would tighten the chipmaker–lab loop again after last year’s compute partnership, and would be a live test of whether public markets will fund frontier-lab valuations at this scale.
