Bankers have told potential investors the Anthropic could target a valuation exceeding $2T (more than double its ~$965B private mark from the May Series H) & potentially raise more than $100B, which would make it the largest IPO on record & surpass SpaceX’s earlier 2026 debut. $MS is positioned for the lead-left role, w/ $GS as co-lead. JPMorgan & Citigroup are also in the top tier of the syndicate The newly detailed prospectus shows rapid top-line growth alongside heavy investment: • Revs: $4.59B, up +1,088% y/y from $386M • Op loss: $8.06B, widening from $2.98B in 2024. • GAAP net loss: $41.97B, vs $8.31B the prior year. That headline ~$42B net loss requires context- roughly $34B stemmed from an accounting charge tied largely to the rising value of financing instruments that could eventually convert into Anthropic shares, rather than cash spent running the business Anthropic spent $7.33B on compute & infrastructure in 2025—up +190% y/y & nearly 3x the prior year. That alone represented: • 58% of its $12.65B in total op expenses • Roughly 1.6x its entire annual revs Spending is expected to keep climbing. The prospectus outlines roughly $518B in cloud, compute & infrastructure obligations as the company continues building out its AI systems. Anthropic ended 2025 w/ $20.28B in total cash Its 2 largest direct customers each acct’d for 12% of revs, meaning just 2 customers represented 24% of total 2025 sales Anthropic warns that many of its largest customers are not locked into long-term contracts & could reduce or stop spending $AMZN & $GOOGL are also major strategic partners & investors in Anthropic, while supplying much of the cloud infrastructure needed to train & run Claude The IPO could come after the Nov US midterm elections & would give public-market investors one of their 1st pure-play ways to value a frontier AI lab The filing highlights risks around increasingly autonomous AI systems, including unexpected behavior, security concerns & potential misuse

$MS $GS After the recent stumbling in the ipo calendar thanks to Anthropic and OpenAi twirling, last week’s bond mkt follies and more endless Trump drivel on Iran crap, I came to the view that the financials are bottoming on bs… When the turnaround becomes apparent, the pile in will begin and likely be violent to the upside. I reloaded both names Friday. LONG 25K of MS AND 3k of GS. F the big banks and their massively underwater bond portfolios going back to Covid nonsense days and super low zero bond rates… they are hosed for years on those butch allocations. Imo, you just own the two best names, MS GS. The financials are trading at record lows….TIME TO WADE IN ON A BG SWING TRADE.

$MS is pulling back into a key weekly support trendline that has helped define the broader uptrend since 2025. Price is now testing the lower end of the rising channel, making this an important area to watch for a potential bullish reaction and continuation higher.

$MS $VKTX if it really was “oversubscribed” then the Brokers absolutely F*CKED VKTX by setting the Price TOO LOW! Like lawyers—these “brokers are the TRUE SCUM OF THE EARTH AND DESERVE THEIR SHORT LIFE SPANS!

$MS $GS do you think either of these has huge underwater bond and com'l real estate portfolios relative to capital like $BAC and $JPM? I know they don't... Just put on 25k of $MS and$3K of GS while the RSI is on the floor and everyone long is hanging off the back of the ship blowing lunch. Those short down here really ought to do some rememedial study of this important reading:

Morgan Stanley analysts recommend a “barbell” approach for the next phase of the AI boom, combining traditional AI infrastructure stocks with companies in industries increasingly benefiting from AI adoption. Analysts led by Stephen Byrd said investors can maintain exposure to “AI enablers,” including chipmakers and other companies supporting the AI infrastructure build-out, while diversifying into “AI adopters” across sectors such as transportation and real estate. Airbnb, for example, has highlighted how AI is already benefiting its business, illustrating how the technology’s impact is expanding beyond hardware and infrastructure. Morgan Stanley believes this broader adoption could create opportunities across a wider range of industries as companies use AI to improve operations, productivity and customer experiences. $MS $NVDA $AVGO $MSFT $ABNB

$MS Recall that the FED did a JUMBO cut 50 bps in SEP 2024 at the exact same core CPI number as today of 2.4%. If they do any hikes just before the midterm elections, it would expose the FED as an arm of the Democrat party.

Morgan Stanley is asking other banks to take portions of a $3 billion loan financing Royal Caribbean Cruises’ acquisition of a 50% stake in Sandals Resort International, Bloomberg reported Wednesday. The 364-day loan carries interest of 1.125 percentage points over SOFR. Morgan Stanley initially provided the financing, which is expected to be refinanced later with longer-term debt, potentially including bonds. Syndicating the loan would allow the bank to reduce its exposure while maintaining a role in the transaction. The financing is one of several short-term acquisition loans Morgan Stanley has arranged recently as M&A activity accelerates. The bank was also named alongside Société Générale on a €22 billion bridge loan for Schneider Electric’s acquisition of PTC, while providing a $4.5 billion short-term loan supporting C.H. Robinson’s proposed $5.8 billion purchase of RXO. $MS $RCL

Morgan Stanley strategists led by Michael Wilson said the sharp decline in U.S. equity valuations since early summer has made some areas of the market more attractive, as earnings growth remains resilient. They favor economically sensitive sectors, particularly capital-goods companies, which have some of the strongest earnings-revision profiles. The S&P 500 rally has weakened since mid-August as rising Treasury yields offset strong earnings momentum. Analysts expect S&P 500 earnings to rise 25% year over year in Q3, following 34% growth in Q2, driven by AI demand, record hyperscaler capital spending and a solid macroeconomic backdrop. Wilson said elevated expectations are setting a high bar for companies, making earnings quality, free cash flow and positive revisions key differentiators. Within industrials, Morgan Stanley highlighted Carlisle, Caterpillar and General Dynamics, citing improving earnings revisions and declines of more than 10% from their June 2026 highs. $MS $GS
