This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again.\u00a0In 2009, a “Double Down” signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia.\u00a0For the first time in years, that same “Total Conviction” signal is flashing for a company 1\/100th the size of Nvidia.\u00a0Continue \u00bb<\/a> <\/p>\n Reviewing Anthropic’s funding and IPO ambitions <\/p>\n Reports from Bloomberg suggest Anthropic is aiming for an initial public offering<\/a> (IPO) that matches or exceeds Space Exploration Technologies’ record raise from earlier this summer. Anthropic has already raised roughly $133 billion to date, most recently in a $65 billion Series H round that valued it at $965 billion. This near-trillion-dollar figure reflects Anthropic’s explosive growth, with recent quarterly revenue surpassing $11.5 billion and an annualized run rate approaching $65 billion<\/a>. <\/p>\n Why Amazon investors should pay attention to Anthropic’s IPO <\/p>\n Amazon investors have good reason to monitor the Anthropic offering. Amazon has already invested $13 billion in Anthropic, with commitments for up to an additional $20 billion contingent on commercial milestones. <\/p>\n Beyond simple equity ownership, the partnership between Amazon and Anthropic runs deep through AWS. Anthropic uses Amazon’s custom silicon for training and inference, including a massive deployment under Project Rainier that utilizes over 1 million Amazon Trainium chips, complemented by its Graviton processors. <\/p>\n Anthropic’s Claude models power a number of features on Amazon Bedrock for more than 100,000 customers. Meanwhile, the company has pledged more than $100 billion in AWS spending over the next 10 years to secure up to 5 gigawatts of capacity. <\/p>\n Assessing Amazon’s upside <\/p>\n Anthropic’s S-1 will provide more precise disclosure around Amazon’s ownership. With exact percentages known, investors can better model the position’s value. Accurate knowledge of the value of Amazon’s stake can help improve forecasts of AWS’ revenue acceleration and operating margin expansion driven by Anthropic’s compute demands. In turn, I think a fundamental rerating in Amazon stock could follow as investors gain a deeper understanding of Anthropic’s influence on Amazon’s position in the AI infrastructure supercycle. <\/p>\n Should you buy stock in Amazon right now? <\/p>\n Before you buy stock in Amazon, consider this: <\/p>\n The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a010 best stocks<\/a> for investors to buy now\u2026 and Amazon wasn’t one of them.
