AI hype now has a concrete focal point. Anthropic’s IPO filing puts real numbers around a business tied to heavy cash, huge losses and massive revenue, and that kind of scale can pull trading volumes across global exchanges into a higher gear. If activity jumps, fee-based platforms could feel it first. This article walks through three stocks exposed to this theme and explains why their reaction to Anthropic’s listing story matters for your portfolio.
The stocks below are just a starting sample, and the full screen on Simply Wall St surfaced 62 more listed exchanges and market‑structure platforms with equally compelling narratives that are not covered here.

Overview: Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos runs Argentina’s main stock exchange and central securities depository, handling trading, listings, custody and post trade services.
Operations: BYMA generates about ARS 185,853 million from trading, clearing and central counterparty services, ARS 102,945 million from collective deposit activities, and essentially all revenue in Argentina.
Market Cap: ARS 1.70 trillion
Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos provides exposure to the fees that accrue when local investors trade, list and clear securities during periods of elevated IPO activity, including any attention the Anthropic listing may draw to trading venues globally.
"Expansion of assets under custody across government securities, corporate bonds, CEDEARs and SME instruments is increasing the relevance of the CSD segment. This can support higher custody and ancillary service revenue and a larger share of group earnings over time."
How sensitive is Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos’ earnings power to a single key assumption about future trading intensity and fee mix.
That single assumption can be decisive, and the full narrative for Bolsas y Mercados Argentinos shows how trading intensity, fee mix and custody growth could be accelerating or quietly masking other moving parts.
Overview: XTB is a Warsaw based multi asset brokerage, giving retail and institutional clients access to ETFs, derivatives, stocks and bonds across global markets. This ties directly into AI driven IPO trading surges.
Operations: XTB generates about PLN 3,004 million from Retail Operations and PLN 64 million from Institutional Operations, with Poland contributing roughly PLN 1,759 million of revenue.
Market Cap: PLN 16.3 billion
For an AI IPO wave that could push trading volumes significantly higher, XTB offers a different angle on the theme because its income is tightly linked to how actively retail clients trade across multiple asset classes rather than to listing fees on a single exchange.
"The company is increasingly attracting a new generation of European investors who use the platform to buy US and Polish stocks and ETFs. But underneath that growth sits a legacy CFD business that remains hugely profitable."
What really moves the needle for XTB is how one less visible pressure shapes the balance between new equity traders and that older CFD engine.
That pressure point is exactly where the full narrative for XTB shows whether XTB’s retail flywheel is quietly accelerating or at risk of stalling out.
Overview: Billionbrains Garage Ventures runs Groww, a direct to customer investing app and web platform in India that lets individuals trade shares, IPOs, derivatives and funds, tying its fortunes closely to retail activity around high profile IPO waves.
Operations: The group generates about ₹53,792 million from financial services delivered through its web and app based platform, entirely from Indian customers.
Market Cap: ₹1.19 trillion
Billionbrains Garage Ventures plugs directly into this screener’s theme because Groww earns fees whenever Indian investors trade, subscribe to IPOs or shift savings into markets. Any Anthropic linked surge in AI interest that pushes volumes higher can quickly flow through the platform’s income line.
"Rising financialization of savings in India, combined with GROWW's strong brand and predominantly organic customer acquisition, positions the platform to capture a larger share of new investors, supporting sustained growth in active users and brokerage revenue."
What happens to Billionbrains Garage Ventures’ earnings profile if a single assumption about how much more each engaged customer spends quietly breaks?
If that assumption matters for your thesis, the full narrative for Billionbrains Garage Ventures maps where Groww’s user flywheel could be accelerating, decoupling or quietly stalling.
