Is regulation really that big of an issue?
I realize all the tech companies in the running and ARM are global brands. Recently T-Mobile and Sprint were allowed to merge in the US. Is it really that certain that Apple or another giant purchasing ARM wouldn’t be allowed?
- ChrisSD 6y agoIt's not certain but it is a big risk. Nobody wants to be spending time and money on doing a deal when there's a high risk it'll be blocked at the final hurdle.
- smabie 6y agoT-mobile and Sprint were allowed to merge because they were both uncompetitive as stand-alone companies: their merger deconsolidated the wireless space, not the other way around.
