Anthropic confidentially submits draft S-1 to the SEC

Most don’t. The one that is the center of much of the controversy around these IPOs, NASDAQ-100, doesn’t use float adjustments.

A lot of people have been using it to passively invest in AI (via QQQ).

It’s nonsensical for a variety of reasons but we live an era of the stock market just being another casino…

I believe it's the opposite :) All major indices (S&P500, MSCI, FTSE...) use free-float adjustments. And recently also NASDAQ - they've changed to cap of 3x the value of free-floating shares.

You are correct. That’s what I intended to say but I see that worded that comment unclearly.
