What happened
Anthropic filed for an IPO, revealing 1,368% year-on-year revenue growth in the second quarter. However, concerns about AI cash burn grew as Alphabet released disappointing search advertising results and negative free cash flow. Amazon shares also fell after reporting it burned $42.4 billion over a trailing 12-month period in the third quarter, with capital expenditure roughly $20 billion above estimates.
