Bloomberg: Anthropic has invited institutional investors to question its executives ahead of the possible IPO they value near $2T.

The Oct 14 session could lead to formal marketing as soon as the week of Nov 9 and trading before Thanksgiving per Bloomberg.

OpenAI went the opposite way, ruling out a 2026 listing over safety concerns and seeking at least $30B privately at about $1.4T.

If the November schedule holds, SEC rules require Anthropic to publish its S-1 by late October, at least 15 days before the roadshow.
