SoftBank''s Deal To Sell Arm To Nvidia In "Biggest Semiconductor Deal Ever" Killed By Regulators
07:40pm, Tuesday, 25'th Jan 2022 Zero Hedge
SoftBank''s Deal To Sell Arm To Nvidia In "Biggest Semiconductor Deal Ever" Killed By Regulators Here''s some more bad news for SoftBank: it''s planned deal to sell its Arm subsidiary to Nvidia - once billed as "the biggest semiconductor deal ever" - is falling apart as the two companies have failed to win approval from global regulators. While much has changed since the deal was struck in September 2020 (for one, a global supply crunch has restricted access to semiconductors, forcing governments to gather their ''strategic assets'' closely like a squirrel with its nuts), one important fact hasn''t: Following the bloodbath in US-traded tech stocks, SoftBank could really use the cash proceeds from the Arm deal to cover its other losses. It''s also a blow to the many bankers working on a deal that was valued at $40 billion back in September 2020. According to Bloomberg , news about the deal''s demise came out of the Nvidia camp; apparently, the company has been telling its own high-ranking employees that it doesn''t expect the deal to be consummated.

Futures Swing Ahead Of Today''s "Brutal" CPI Print
01:00pm, Wednesday, 12'th Jan 2022 Zero Hedge
Futures Swing Ahead Of Today''s "Brutal" CPI Print U.S. index futures were little changed, if slightly in the green on Wednesday as investors settled into a wait-and-see mode ahead of today''s " brutal" CPI report which is expected to show the highest CPI print in nearly 40 years, a time when the fed funds rate was 11% compared to 0% now… ... and gauge the pace of Federal Reserve tightening. Consensus expects December CPI to show inflation climbing to 7.0%, a result which could see front- end fully price in a March rate hike (currently priced at 85%). Helping the overnight mood in Asia, was a moderation in China’s inflation pressures, with CPI dipping to 10.3% y/y in December, giving the central bank scope to cut interest rates to cushion the economy’s downturn just as most major nations look to tighten policy. At 730am ET, S&P futures were up 0.2% of 7.50, and Nasdaq futures rose 22 points or 0.14%, recovering toward Asia’s best levels; Dow futures were up about 0.1%. The dollar was slightly lower, extending on its recent sharp drop, while Treasury yields were steady. “All we know is that the Fed has waited too long before taking action,” said Ipek Ozkardeskaya, senior analyst at Swissquote . “If today’s inflation print is higher than expected, recent gains in equities will melt like snow in the sun,” she wrote, even though investors seemed to put aside fears that tighter policy will stifle the economic rebound and market rally after soothing words from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
