FTC Subpoenas OpenAI and Anthropic as Big Tech Faces Massive Stakes Risk

Yahoo Finance ·

The Federal Trade Commission issued civil subpoenas to OpenAI and Anthropic on October 15, launching a comprehensive consumer-protection investigation into their safety practices and security incidents. This federal scrutiny places roughly $554 billion in combined stakes held by Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet under potential pressure. While any direct financial penalties would target the labs themselves, the broader risk lies in how public markets will value these startups during their upcoming initial public offerings. With Anthropic having confidentially filed for an IPO and OpenAI eyeing a public debut, regulatory hurdles could delay model rollouts and cloud spending commitments with major investors like Microsoft and Amazon. Nonetheless, analysts note that the core earnings power of these tech giants remains exceptionally robust, mitigating severe fallout from the ongoing federal probe.
