Qualcomm Reportedly Taps Intel With An Acquisition Offer
National security concerns in the US might add a potent tailwind to Qualcomm's purported buyout offer for Intel.

There are so many reasons why this won't happen lmao
Qualcomm has about 70% of Intel's revenue, and their valuation is only twice as much as Intels. There is no way they could get a loan equivalent to half of their net worth to acquire intel, a company that is having some financial difficulties. Then there are regulators that will very likely block this acquisition. But this rumor made the Intel stock price go up and I made money, so keep the rumors coming!
They don't mention what the offer is. Very easily could be a stock-based deal where Intel stockholders get a portion of the combined company. That's how T-Mobile bought Sprint.
Who says loan? You could get a bunch of PE involved; they love a smashing together of entities to “create synergies” and “increase pricing power”.
