Asian stock markets experienced a broad surge, buoyed by the initial public offering filing from AI company Anthropic. The filing, made public on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, indicated significant revenue growth alongside substantial financial losses for the Claude-owner. This event, coupled with Meta Platforms' announcement of plans to raise up to $US95 billion in equity, lifted investor sentiment across the region. The positive market movement was reflected in key indices. South Korea's tech-heavy KOSPI index climbed more than four per cent in early trading. Japan's Nikkei index was up 1.9 per cent, and MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares excluding Japan rose by 1.2 per cent. Nasdaq futures also showed gains, following a rise in US chip stocks. ## Disagreement on Anthropic's financial disclosure PerthNow reported that Anthropic disclosed steep losses and red-hot revenue growth in its filing.
