FTC Sues to Block $40 Billion Semiconductor Chip Merger (Nvidia)

The easiest solution that is required is that ARM returns to the FTSE and thereby enters into british common ownership once again via a million different pension schemes holding FTSE trackers. Nvidia could hold something like 49% of the shares in theory not a majority ownership but very much the buyer and with seats on the board etc. Japan gets their seller, Nvidia gets to work heavily with ARM and each benefit from that partnership and regulators both sides of the Atlantic can control any negative duopoly in market competition concerns.

When ARM was sold to softbank it was a condition the business would stay in UK. Merging into Nvidia completely would seem to wipe out that possibility, Softbank of course operates investment holdings rather then directing policies exactly.
