Thomas Laffont: The $4T AI IPO Wave, 2026's Unicorn Economy, and the 10X Paradox

What was said

"If you're a centricorn, $100 billion or more, the odds— and by the way, we're putting in public and private companies— you now have a 31% chance of having had a 10x."

Coatue's analysis of public and private company data revealed counterintuitive findings that larger companies have higher odds of 10x returns than smaller ones. Unicorns have only 8% odds of reaching decacorn status, while companies over $100 billion have 31% odds of reaching trillion-dollar valuations. This contradicts traditional venture wisdom and suggests LPs should concentrate capital in the largest winners.
