"Macro hedge funds are enjoying their best year since at least 2008…"
Per the @FT thru Mo EL Elrian: "An index from data provider HFR tracking the returns of such funds — which aim to profit from economic trends by trading equities, bonds and commodities — was up 16 per cent at the end of November”
According to Reuters (via an FT report), Anthropic is laying groundwork for an IPO as early as 2026.
They’re also reportedly in talks for a private funding round that could value the company north of $300B — a huge step up from their most recently disclosed ~$183B post-money valuation. If Anthropic were public today and you simply treated that ~$183B as its market cap, here’s the fun part: 📈 It would land around the low-90s globally by market cap — roughly #91 — just ahead of Airbus (≈$181B). For context, that neighborhood looks like: Blackstone ≈ $186B HDFC Bank ≈ $180B (Anthropic) ≈ $183B Airbus ≈ $178B Source : Reuters, FT
