$GTLB My take on yesterday’s -7.25% drop after Anthropic’s Scion post:
1. Scion is not a git replacement. Anthropic says itself it only makes sense for enormous monorepos and is not practical to offer to other companies.
2. Their actual recommendation is for git platforms to build smarter servers with server-side APIs, without leaving git. They name GitLab as a partner. That is GitLab’s next-gen SCM.
3. Nick G, who wrote the Scion post, joined GitLab on stage at Transcend in June. GitLab posted the same day with a quote from him. Collaboration, not competition.
4. Anthropic went from ~2,500 to 30,000+ merges a day in 4 months. More code means more pipelines, scans and usage for GitLab.
5. Stock was ~$19 in April and hit a 52-week high yesterday before the drop. Part of this looks like profit taking.
Ex-GitLab (7 yrs). Not financial advice.
