Predicted for 31. October 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Polymarket prices the probability of an Anthropic IPO by end of October 2026 at approximately 62%. According to Yahoo Finance/Seeking Alpha, Anthropic has confidentially filed an S-1 and retained Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley as lead underwriters. The strategically targeted listing window sits just before the US Midterm elections on 3 November 2026, securing capital market access independent of a potential congressional power shift. The roadshow is reportedly set to begin in mid-October. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman explicitly called a 2026 IPO for OpenAI 'ill-advised' — positioning Anthropic as the uncontested first-mover in the 2026 AI IPO market with a target valuation of approximately $2 trillion. Polymarket also sees 87% probability that Anthropic goes public before OpenAI.
Data basis for this prediction
- Polymarket: Anthropic IPO bis Oktober 2026 = ~62 %; vor OpenAI = ~87 % (Stand 14.09.2026)
- Yahoo Finance / Seeking Alpha: Anthropic S-1-Einreichung, Konsortium GS/JPM/MS (September 2026)
- OpenAI CEO Altman: 2026-Börsengang 'ill-advised' (Bloomberg, September 2026)

Netflix reported ~$9.83B in Q2 2025 revenue with ~17% YoY growth. Applying a conservative 12% annual growth rate for 2025–2026 yields an estimated Q3 2026 quarterly revenue of ~$11.0–11.5B. No active Polymarket market found for this quarterly result; 74% probability derived from growth trajectory and historical beat rate. Structural growth drivers: ad-supported tier (rapid user adoption), price increases in core markets, live sport and event licenses, emerging market expansion. Netflix beat analyst consensus in 9 of the last 12 quarters. The $11.0B threshold is a conservative lower bound.

ASML is the global monopolist for EUV lithography systems – without ASML, TSMC, Samsung, and Intel cannot manufacture chips below 7nm. AI-driven chip demand has sharply accelerated semiconductor capex cycles in 2025/26: TSMC reports >40% YoY growth in Q3 2026 (open Cassandra prediction), and NVIDIA projects >$110B net revenue for August–October 2026. This expansion wave forces major foundries into higher ASML orders. In Q3 2025, after an order miss (~€7.5B revenue), ASML set a low comparison base; >20% growth on that base looks realistic given the current AI chip boom. No specific Polymarket/Kalshi market for ASML earnings was identified. The US-Iran war further boosts defense and semiconductor sovereignty investments in Europe and the US.

Polymarket prices the 'Largest Company end of September? (NVIDIA)' market at 78% (as of 14 September 2026, ~$2M volume). NVIDIA dominates the AI accelerator market with its Blackwell architecture; hyperscaler demand (Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, AWS) remains at record levels. Apple and Microsoft are the nearest rivals but trail NVIDIA's market cap significantly. For Q3-FY2027 (August–October 2026, report ~November 2026), revenue above $110B is expected — a further price catalyst. Only a sharp market drop from the US-Iran conflict or a FOMC surprise on 16 September could temporarily dislodge NVIDIA. Cassandra anchors to the market quote and sets probability at 75%.
