Nvidia in pole position to buy Arm
By David Manners, ElectronisWeekly (August 3, 2020)
Talks between Softbank and Nvidia about selling a stake in Arm are reported by the Nikkei to be at an advanced stage.
It is said that Softbank will want to retain a stake in the company.
Speculation over why Nvidia wants Arm is widespread.
One explanation is that with Nvidia’s soaring share price – now at $260 billion – a $20-30 billion all-share deal looks easy for Nvidia to absorb.
