That's the neat trick - it isn't...
Sell the asset and then lease it from the buyer.
That works fine with office buildings and stuff where a company is redistributing its risk profile, but not when the company it’s selling to has every incentive to kill the asset as a competitor.

I doubt Nvidia will be regulated in their home jurisdiction. America tends to protect it's cash cows, for better or worse.

There is no "antitrust regulation" in the US in 2025. (Until 2029)
States are "not allowed" to regulate AI companies.

#17I don’t see how this isn’t anti trust but knowing this political climate, this deal will go through.

#18I could not figure out if „cash“ means literally cash or figuratively cash in the sense of “no trade in shares”.
Will there be a truck full of paper money or not?

Implies they will pay cash value to equity holders as opposed to issuing NVDA shares.

It's the latter. They'll send a wire.
