Amazon and Alphabet Eyed as Anthropic Targets $10 Trillion Valuation

[MARKET BIBIA]: BULLISH

SemiAnalysis founder Dylan Patel projects Anthropic could reach a $10 trillion valuation by 2028 or 2029, a projection with major financial implications for key investors and compute suppliers Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL). While market bears highlight operating losses and high private valuations, Patel points to 75% inference gross margins and near-zero customer acquisition costs as foundational strengths.

### Tape / Session Read In the broader equity markets, AI infrastructure and tech heavyweights continue to command institutional focus despite conflicting private valuation debates. While critics like Michael Burry question the scale of private AI valuations, analysts point to operational leverage at leading labs as a driver for upstream enterprise partners.

### Why This Lane Matters Explosive growth projections for private AI developers directly impact the capital expenditure cycles and cloud infrastructure revenues of major hyperscalers. Investors tracking the sector must weigh aggressive long-term revenue targets against immediate cash burn and operating loss reports from leaked financial filings.
