OpenAI is reportedly seeing renewed investor demand in private secondary markets after months of losing momentum, although Anthropic continues to attract the strongest interest.
OpenAI Regains Momentum In Secondary Markets
Investor sentiment toward OpenAI has improved over the past month after the company launched its GPT-5.6 family of AI models and gained traction with Codex, its AI coding agent, Business Insider reported on Sunday.
Private market investors buy shares from employees and early backers because neither OpenAI nor Anthropic is publicly traded.
Those transactions take place in fragmented secondary markets, where valuations are estimates rather than continuously traded market prices.
