Guess who’s back, back again? ARM’s back, tell a friend. If Eminem were a tech analyst, that’s probably what he’d be rapping today as ARM, the Chip Designer ARM Shares Surge in Market Return, returns to the stock market with a splash. The company’s shares have skyrocketed like Elon Musk’s aspirations for Mars.
Back to Basics: Who’s ARM Anyway?
For those of you who think “ARM” is just something attached to your shoulder, let’s get you up to speed. ARM is a big deal in the tech world, a big silicon deal. You know that smartphone you can’t live without? The odds are high that the chips inside it are designed by ARM. Not to be confused with the chips you munch on while binge-watching Netflix, these silicon wonders power everything from your phones to fridges and even your “smart” coffee maker that still can’t spell your name right on the latte.
Why Did They Leave and Why Are They Back?
ARM was previously snatched up by SoftBank in 2016 for a cool $32 billion, which is just slightly more than what most of us pay for our monthly streaming subscriptions. After a brief attempt to sell ARM to Nvidia—a move about as popular as a skunk at a garden party—the deal fell through. Regulatory hurdles and global side-eyes meant it was time for ARM to return home. Like a tech-savvy prodigal son, ARM is now back in the public market, making a statement that they’re here to stay.
