Anthropic could go public in September or early October, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. The AI start-up is valued at $965 billion based on its final private funding round. The article applies Warren Buffett's 1996 advice that investors should be willing to own a stock for 10 years before buying it for 10 minutes. It notes that SpaceX's IPO price was $135, but retail investors who bought at the open of $150 on June 12 saw a gain of about 7.3% by the close, and the stock later fell as low as $104.83 on August 3. Investors are advised to consider their holding period, or to gain exposure through Amazon, which owns a mid-to-high-teens percentage of Anthropic, or Alphabet, which owned 14% as of March.
