Is Broadcom a Chinese company? If it is, then I agree 100%.Factual answer no, no they couldn’t.
The US Govt would not allow that to fall into the hands of China cutting off access to the closest thing to a modern node from a US company on US soil.
Lawyers and Accountants Full Employment agreement. Lawsuits for years.Wouldn't that foul up the snarled mess of licensing agreements?
Headquarters in Singapore, close ties to the CCP and Huawei.Is Broadcom a Chinese company? If it is, then I agree 100%.
EDIT: IF not, could the Chinese government, iow, the Communist Party, block the deal? And what about the European Union?
Its actually kind of insane. Like, just yesterday, AMD was the underdog.What a weird world we live in where out of AMD, Intel, Nvidia, Broadcom...
Intel is the smallest....
Everyone will IBM eventually... and IBM Xerox'd itself.
In terms of market value, yes. In terms of market share, not yet.Wait, what? AMD is now bigger than Intel??
That would make the, a bit radioactive to some government officials.Headquarters in Singapore, close ties to the CCP and Huawei.
Wowzers. I had to check to see for myself that AMD's market cap is almost 2X Intel. But why?I didn't realize Broadcom was worth so insanely much. I also didn't realize AMD was worth twice as much as Intel.
"AMD's partnership with TSMC, which pulled ahead of Intel in the "process race" to manufacture smaller chips in recent years, enables it to produce denser chips than Intel. Over the past five years, AMD's stock rallied more than 450% as Intel's stock slumped nearly 20%."Wowzers. I had to check to see for myself that AMD's market cap is almost 2X Intel. But why?
Stock market only cares about the future growth, not the present position.Wowzers. I had to check to see for myself that AMD's market cap is almost 2X Intel. But why?
Yeah, they do have "something" with their iGPU/QSV and their memory controllers, but compute wise, they gave up with the super hot + clock work and utilizing "crap cores". Reminds me a whole lot of the Netburst era.Stock market only cares about the future growth, not the present position.
Intel has not been a forward-looking company for a while.
Its actually kind of insane. Like, just yesterday, AMD was the underdog.
Factual answer no, no they couldn’t.

What are you talking about??? Broadcom is an American company headquartered in Palo Alto, California. What are your sources for all of these claims? You might be thinking of a different company.Headquarters in Singapore, close ties to the CCP and Huawei.
It’s why Broadcom was named in the whole 5G fiasco, and why they will be in the impending 6G one too.

Isn’t it less than a 16th of the market overall?No. AMD announced it's biggest marketshare (against Intel primarily) in long time, in fact, I don't think it's been higher. But still, not even half, not even a third of the markets.

Sorry the bad news post in the wrong section againan opinion piece on a hypothetical question is not tech news.
But why? Intel revenues are much larger.That's not what determines the financial size of a company. AMD has been worth more as a publicly traded company for some time now.
But what matters to the stock market is how much a share of a company can be sold to someone in the future.But why? Intel revenues are much larger.
It's all good. I was getting ready to join you with my pitchfork, but I know someone who used to work there and was pretty confident they were US based.I thought they were Chinese-based, but everything I see says they are American... I thought they were bought up by China back in their 2016 merger but I guess not.
But why? Intel revenues are much larger.
Yeah that Avago purchase back in 2016 changed the company a lot, I don't know if I would call them a US company per se but it's likely close enough, apparently not close enough for the Trump administration, but that was then and this is now.Really interesting article, IMHO all you need to think about is this quote:
"....And yes, there will be regulatory scrutiny, but the overlap between the two is fairly small and Broadcom is now a US company. We can also hear many people arguing that "Broadcom is done with semis, they are a software company now," but this misses the fundamental point that Broadcom is neither a semis company nor a software company, it is a private equity fund...."
It's amazing given how bad their network controllers are.I didn't realize Broadcom was worth so insanely much. I also didn't realize AMD was worth twice as much as Intel.
Just like IntelIt's amazing given how bad their network controllers are.
No.Just like Intel
