SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic are reportedly preparing for potential IPOs, which could reshape the investment landscape. SpaceX is aiming for a valuation of up to $1.5 trillion and seeking to raise over $25 billion in its IPO, potentially launching in 2026. This move could be the largest since Saudi Aramco's debut and would rank SpaceX among the world's top 10 most valuable companies. The company plans to use the funds to develop space-based data centres.
OpenAI and Anthropic are also reportedly considering IPOs, potentially for next year. Both AI companies project revenues of at least $20 billion for 2026. These IPOs could signal a revival of the US IPO market. However, investing in these ventures comes with risks, including high fees and limited liquidity, as seen with funds like Ark Venture.
Despite potential risks related to management and market volatility, investor interest remains high due to the potential rewards. The success of these IPOs could lead to a significant shift in the tech investment landscape, offering both opportunities and challenges for investors.
