The American competition authority (FTC) opposes the takeover of Arm by Nvidia.

The latter put $ 40 billion on the table to get his hands on the British.

"A hold-up,"

says one of Nvidia's rivals, summing up in two words the state of mind of an entire industry.

All have stepped up to the plate to voice their concern.

They were heard by the American antitrust.

The FTC is initiating proceedings to prevent the largest meltdown in semiconductor history.

The latter would give birth to a conglomerate likely to stifle innovation for the next generations of technologies.

Said Holly Vedova, director of the FTC's competition bureau.

This position comes in addition to the opening of an investigation requested by London, in the name of the national security of the country.

Arm's position in the sector explains this international outcry.

The British group has created a standard on which almost all players in the sector rely to design their chips.

The European Commission has also opened an in-depth investigation. Arm's position in the sector explains this international outcry. The British group has created a standard on which almost all players in the sector rely to design their chips. Arm architecture is a kind of universal language, enriched by contributions from its clients. However, it is currently owned by the Japanese Softbank. This has the advantage of being "neutral", not being itself a semiconductor producer. Unlike Nvidia, which is one of the leaders in the sector and which, married to Arm, would become an essential crossing point for all its rivals. Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, may well say that he will retain the current status of Arm, his rivals do not believe in

"a great altruistic project".

They call on Sotfbank to find an alternative to this transfer.

The trail of an Arm's public offering returns to the forefront.
