SpaceX, Alphabet, Anthropic, and OpenAI plan to raise $370 billion combined, exceeding U.S. IPO proceeds over the past five years.
Four artificial intelligence companies are preparing to raise a combined $370 billion through initial public offerings and secondary stock sales, surpassing the total capital raised by U.S. IPOs over the past five years. SpaceX leads with a $75 billion IPO, reportedly four times oversubscribed, while Alphabet aims to raise nearly $85 billion, including a $10 billion purchase by Berkshire Hathaway.
The U.S. IPO market has seen modest activity in recent years, with annual proceeds typically ranging between $40 billion and $80 billion. The planned fundraising by these AI firms would mark a historic surge, reflecting strong investor appetite for high-growth technology sectors.
Market reaction remains speculative, though early indications suggest robust demand, particularly for SpaceX’s offering. Analysts recommend selective exposure, favoring two of the four companies for potential investment.
