Synopsis
Anthropic is gearing up for its highly anticipated IPO, aiming to raise as much as $64.4 billion with share prices ranging from $70 to $78.

Similar to SpaceX's market entry, analysts forecast significant initial share price surges, with employees permitted to sell some of their shares on the opening day.
