Samuel Kerr says rising sovereign yields with the US ten-year near 5.5% are spooking IPO investors and widening valuation demands. He sees investors keeping powder dry for Anthropic's roughly $100 billion IPO expected this quarter, while SpaceX (SPCX) carries more FOMO as a pure monopoly. Kerr expects Anthropic and OpenAI to return to markets repeatedly for capital given vast CapEx needs, and notes China's IPO market is hot with DeepSeek and Moonshot targeting Hong Kong listings while Europe struggles with wide discounts.
