Kalshi Cuts Anthropic IPO Odds Before December to 57% Amid AI Sell-Off

Kalshi’s short-term market put the chance of Anthropic announcing an initial public offering before December at 57%, a move that coincided with an AI-stock sell-off after Democrats won control of both chambers of Congress. A second short-term contract put the chance of an announcement before January at 68%. Both contracts track announcement timing, not when Anthropic shares might begin trading. The percentages reflect market expectations and can change; they do not establish that Anthropic has set an IPO date. The political backdrop included Texas Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa, a Democrat who campaigned for tighter rules on data center development.
