  4. Anthropic Said to Be in Talks for Nvidia to Become IPO Anchor Investor, Nvidia May Invest Up to $10 billionAccording to two people familiar with the matter, Anthropic is in talks with Nvidia (NVDA.O) to bring the latter in as an anchor investor in its IPO; Anthropic's IPO is expected to be the largest in history. The people familiar with the matter said Anthropic plans to raise as much as $100 billion, which could value the AI startup at about $2 trillion. One of the sources added that Nvidia is considering investing as much as $10 billion in the IPO. They cautioned that the plans are still under discussion and may change. The report noted that bringing in a deep-pocketed major investor like Nvidia is expected to boost investor confidence in the listing. The IPO is increasingly becoming a major test of the public market's willingness to accept the huge valuations and funding needs of frontier AI labs.
  5. Bitunix Analyst: US Treasury Yields Approach 5%, Buybacks Struggle Against Inflation and Capital DemandBlockBeats news, September 12 — The U.S. Treasury market continues to face selling pressure, with the 10-year yield rising to around 4.94% and the 30-year briefly touching 5.35%, indicating that the market's pricing of a higher-for-longer interest rate environment is still deepening. Even after the Treasury raised the cap on long-term U.S. bond buybacks to $6 billion, with only $5.19 billion actually purchased, yields still moved higher, reflecting that policy operations can improve liquidity but are hard-pressed to reverse the structural pressures created by inflation, fiscal deficits, and long-term capital demand. Rising oil prices further amplify this contradiction. Higher energy costs could reignite inflation expectations and also prompt investors to raise their bets on Federal Reserve rate hikes in advance. The market-implied probability of a rate hike has now risen to 71%, meaning that even before CPI is released, the bond market has already begun pricing in a more restrictive policy path. The real key therefore is not just a single month's inflation data, but whether the market believes that energy, tariffs, and supply chain pressures will cause underlying inflation to lose its downward momentum again. On the other hand, the capital expenditure boom driven by AI construction is also changing long-bond pricing. A surge in corporate debt issuance to compete for funds means the U.S. government is not the only source of capital demand; when capital flows simultaneously to the government and to corporations, long-term interest rates naturally become harder to push down through Treasury buybacks alone. Druckenmiller even argued that given the current level of capital expenditure and competition for funds, U.S. Treasury yields are "even a bit low," highlighting that some investors have already come to view this round of rising rates as fundamentals rather than mere market sentiment. Therefore, the real problem currently facing U.S. Treasuries is not how much the Treasury can buy, but how much yield the market demands before it is willing to take on long-term U.S. debt. If CPI runs hot, rate hike expectations and long-end yields may further reinforce each other; if CPI cools, the market will need to reassess whether high yields can fall back. The core of this game has gradually shifted from whether policy can influence the market to whether policy can counter fundamentals.
  6. 'Fed whisperer': Fed is poised to hike rates next week, but a single hike won't solve the problem.BlockBeats news, September 12 - "Fed whisperer" Nick Timiraos wrote in his latest article that investors have largely concluded the Fed will raise rates next week for the first time in three years, but the harder question is what happens after that. Since almost no one within the Fed believes a single 25 basis point rate hike is enough to bring down inflation, if a rate hike is decided next week, it would reflect a judgment that rates were previously at the wrong level, and one rate hike cannot solve the problem. Since the 1990s, the Fed has only raised rates on a "one-off" basis once. Warsh said in July that he did not think the Fed was good at "fine-tuning," and analysts say a chairman skeptical of fine-tuning is unlikely to raise rates by 25 basis points and then declare the job done. Warsh said last month that there is not much evidence that borrowing conditions are restraining economic activity. If rate hikes are pushed on this basis, the market will naturally ask how high rates need to go. Without an explanation, the market may interpret one rate hike as the beginning of a larger-scale action. Therefore, this week investors no longer view the September meeting as a single-meeting issue. The market currently expects at least three cumulative rate hikes by next June, up from the previous expectation of two.
