Anthropic files S-1 to list on Nasdaq
Anthropic has filed an S-1 to list on Nasdaq. Its financials show revenue up 14x year on year to $16.3 billion in the first half of 2026, and the company depends on that high growth to carry long-term compute commitments. Separately, the US Department of Justice is investigating Nvidia's proposed $12.93 billion acquisition of Hugging Face.
