- H8crilA 6y agoFortunately there's a market for stocks.
- manquer 6y agoThere is no easy for market for 32b of any stock . You cannot just make sell order for that qty and expect that Order to be filled. That stock market is also there for ARM stocks . There is no need to trade for nvidia shares at an undesirable price if there is no immediate cash in it. Nvidia could potentially raise money from an FPO or similar instruments and leverage advantageous stock price they have, I.e. issue lesser newer stock than they would have at a lower price ,but only way SoftBank will consider a deal is if they get cash
- valuearb 6y agoSure you can, someone will buy that $32B in nVidia stock for $20B. Which is still more than ARM is worth.
- H8crilA 6y agoThere actually is. For example - on the last annual Berkshire shareholders meeting Buffett was talking about how easy it was for them to unload billions worth of airlines, 100% of their holding. On a typical single day $4B worth of NVIDA stock is traded.
- H8crilA 6y agoPS. ARM is currently privately held (i.e. it is not on the stock market).
