> Anthropic IPO filing is lifting tech stocks today - buy the AI IPO hype or wait for the actual numbers?

> Tech stocks rallied today on news of a historic IPO filing from AI developer Anthropic, with reports of more than 1300 percent year over year revenue growth in Q2, and Meta announcing a 95 billion dollar fundraising effort for AI infrastructure. The Nasdaq was up about 1.2 percent at midday and the S and P 500 was up about 0.9 percent. I am tempted by the AI growth story, but an IPO filing is not a prospectus with a price, and the last few hyped listings taught me to check valuation before excitement. For people who invest in tech: do you buy into the AI IPO wave early, or wait until the filing shows real revenue, margins, and a price?

> Wait for the filing, not the headline

> A 1300 percent growth rate sounds huge until you see the base it grew from, and a filing with no price tells you nothing about valuation. The checkable step is to read the actual prospectus when it lands: revenue, gross margin, customer concentration, and how much of that growth is one big cloud deal. Until then, the Nasdaq rally is just sentiment. I would rather own a broad tech index and wait than chase a single IPO on a headline number.
