Anthropic's $150 Billion Goal: How Amazon and Alphabet Could Benefit From the AI Surge
Artificial intelligence start-up Anthropic is in early talks to raise between $3 billion and $5 billion in a new funding round. The raise could push the company's valuation above $150 billion, according to the Financial Times. That would more than double its current $61.5 billion valuation, reached just a few months ago. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Anthropic Is Growing Fast Anthropic is the company behind Claude, a large language model that competes with OpenAI's ChatGPT. It is backed by Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOG), which have each committed billions in cloud credits and cash. Amazon has already invested up to $8 billion and is reportedly considering further investments to remain among Anthropic's largest shareholders. This funding round comes as competition in artificial intelligence intensifies. OpenAI is preparing to launch GPT-5 and is working with SoftBank (SFTBY) on a separate raise that could bring in tens of billions of dollars. Meanwhile, Anthropic has quietly increased its annualized recurring revenue from $1 billion at the start of the year to over $4 billion, driven mainly by enterprise subscriptions. Investors are closely watching the private AI space, but the real implications may lie with public companies that stand to benefit. Amazon and Alphabet have positioned themselves as infrastructure providers for leading model developers, such as Anthropic. A stronger Claude model, used widely in enterprise software and coding tools, could support growth in Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud revenue. The Middle East Is Calling The funding talks have also drawn interest from Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds. Anthropic's leadership has expressed concerns internally about taking direct investment from the region, citing political risks. Even so, the company sold $500 million worth of shares to a fund linked to Abu Dhabi in 2023. A broader shift toward sovereign capital could influence how other private AI start-ups raise money. Anthropic remains private for now, but its valuation jump and enterprise growth highlight how quickly the AI market is scaling. Investors seeking exposure are most likely to find it through public companies that enable and support that growth. Using TipRanks' Comparison Tool, we've brought Amazon and Google side by side and compared them to gain a broader look at Anthropic's two most notable backers.

Amazon Warns Attacks Underway—Update Your Account Now
Don't leave it too late — update now. Amazon has confirmed its users are now under attack. Fraudulent emails that seem to come from Amazon actually open 'a fake Amazon login page.' This steals your username and password, enabling attackers to gain access to your account. Those emails, Amazon warns, claim 'Amazon Prime subscriptions will automatically renew at an unexpected price,' and have been personalized with stolen data 'to appear legitimate.' The warning was issued to more than 200 million customers. If that's not worrying enough, the security at team at Guardio has also just warned that a separate attack is also surging — up 5000% in just two weeks. This time its texts instead of emails, and fake refunds instead of fake price increases. But the result is the same — a fake login page stealing your credentials to access your account. Amazon says it has taken down '55,000 phishing websites and 12,000 phone numbers' in the last year, 'as part of impersonation schemes.' But still the attacks come. Amazon has now issued '6 practical tips to help you stay safe and avoid impersonation scams.' America's FTC warns 'scammers are pretending to be Amazon again. This time, they're sending texts claiming there's a problem with something you bought.' But there is no refund. 'Instead, it's a phishing scam to steal your money or personal information.' Amazon is keen to stress that it invests heavily to prevent users falling victim to these attacks. Its responsiveness to these latest attacks is impressive. But the reality is that the only way for account holders to stay safe is to update the security on their accounts. You should do two things to secure your account and you should do both today. First, ensure you have 'two-step verification (2SV)' enabled from within the 'Login & Security' settings, which you can find when you click on 'Accounts & Lists.' The default option is to use your primary mobile number to send one-time passcodes by SMS. This is the worst form of 2SV. Instead you should use an authenticator app from a major provider — Apple's Passwords or Google's Authenticator for example. If you already have SMS 2SV enabled, 'you'll need to clear your two-step verification settings' to use an app instead. 'To do so, tap or click disable, then tick the box next to 'Also clear my two-step verification settings' on the window that appears. Lastly, re-enable two-step verification using your authenticator app as your preferred method.' With that done, your account is much safer. But there's still a chance an attacker can trick you into sharing a one-time passcode through a fraudulent sign-in page. So you should also add a passkey to your account and use that as your default. Passkeys are 'phishing resistant.' They link your Amazon sign-in to your physical device's security — for example, the biometrics or PIN on your phone. There is no 2SV code to steal or bypass or trick a user into sharing. You can find instructions on adding an Amazon passkey here. If you make these changes, it's not possible for an attacker to steal your username and password and gain access to your account. At a minimum they would need you to open your authenticator app and share the code. They will not know you're using an app. Passkeys are still better. And if you make a rule to never use anything but your passkey on one of your trusted devices, you cannot be compromised. Change those settings today, given that attacks are underway. Don't leave it too late.

1 Remarkable Stat That Highlights Just How Amazing Netflix Stock Has Been in Recent Years
Key Points Netflix is on track for another strong year where it is likely to finish up more than 20%. The company recently reported earnings, which yet again showed strong growth. 10 stocks we like better than Netflix › Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) recently reported another strong quarter, a testament to the company's ability to continually innovate and find ways to grow. It has been successful in making its own movies and shows, offering ads, and cracking down on password sharing -- all moves that may not have been all that convincing when they were first announced. And yet, the company continues to do well. The company's dominance in the streaming business has propelled its stock to a valuation of over $500 billion. It has been a tremendous market-beating stock, and there's one stat that highlights just how truly special and impressive Netflix has been as a long-term investment in recent years. Netflix stock is on track for at least a 20% gain for the seventh time in the past nine years As of Tuesday's close, shares of Netflix were up around 32% year to date. Unless the stock encounters some considerable headwinds later this year, odds are it will produce a return in excess of 20% yet again in 2025. And if that happens, that will be the seventh time it has done so in just nine years. The lone exceptions were in 2021 and 2022, when concerns around inflation and interest rates were weighing on growth stocks. In 2021, Netflix rose in value but by just 11% as a late-year decline sent it into a tailspin, which continued into 2022, when it fell by more than 50% that year. Aside from those blemishes, since 2017, the stock has routinely generated 20% gains or more annually. That's particularly impressive when you consider that the S&P 500's long-run average annual return is right around 10%. While the broad index has amassed returns totaling 185% since 2017, Netflix has blown past it with gains totaling more than 850%. The company continues to impress with solid earnings numbers Earlier this month, Netflix reported its latest earnings numbers, which continued to look strong. It beat analyst expectations for the second quarter (which ended on June 30), as revenue of $11.08 billion came in higher than forecasts of $11.07 billion. And its earnings per share of $7.19 came in comfortably higher than what Wall Street was looking for -- $7.08. Overall, its sales grew by 16% year over year. The company, did, however, warn that its margins will decline a bit in the latter half of the year as sales and marketing costs increase as the company releases more content. But that's a trend that has become the norm for the business in previous years and shouldn't necessarily raise alarms for investors. Should you buy Netflix stock today? Netflix has been a tremendous growth stock to own for several years now. Even with a massive decline in 2022, it has generated fantastic returns for investors who have held on. The streaming stock is undoubtedly expensive today, as it trades at 50 times trailing earnings, a steep premium. There is some risk of a correction in the near term, but with the company offering consumers a wealth of content and being a top streaming business to invest in, it's still hard not to like Netflix as a long-term investment. It may be due for a slowdown at some point, and it won't always generate 20% returns, but if you're willing to hang on, you can still generate great returns from investing in the business over the long haul. As a leader in the streaming industry, Netflix can be a good stock to buy and forget about. Should you buy stock in Netflix right now?
