Should AMD buy ARM?

[GunsMadeAmericaFree]

It is quite possible that China may end up stopping Nvidia's purchase of Arm from Softbank. If that happens, do you think that AMD should step up and purchase the ARM assets?

 

[zinfamous]

What?

NO.

 

[sdifox]

how can China stop ARM sale?

 

[Ajay]

Nah, mikey$oft should. It would be hilarious.

 

[NTMBK]

No. ARM should go back to being an independent British company.

Is that the Indian knockoff of Microsoft?

No, it's been my pet name for Microsoft for 20+ years. That for M$.

Well, now that they are owned by Softbank, who paid big $$s for ARM, there is no mechanism for them to become an independent company again. Softbank isn't going to just give away the subsidiary for small $$s.

I dunno, Softbank's investment into Sprint and then the Sprint-TMo thingy had their deep pockets starting to become shallow. BTW, Softbank is a Japanese-HQ'd conglomerate, isn't it?

 

[Exterous]

I'm a little salty they went private so I'd be OK if they went to AMD or I could buy their stock again

Yes. Anyway, AMD is up to the ear in M&A buying Xilinx.

AMD should buy ARM and Tesla should buy AMD. The fanboys would literally turn into a giant, pulsating mass of plasma.

Then they could merge with Gamestop?

 

[snoopy7548]

I'm considering buying ARM.

Game Stop will have enough to stock swap and own AMD next week.
