Broadcom's Hostile Takeover Bid for Qualcom Threatens to Ruin Mobile Computing

This is now at least the third prominent deal that has fallen apart under sefus scrutiny during the trump administration. Paul thorot blogged about the implications to the broader industry, saying broadcom's hostile take over bid for qualcom threatened to ground everything to a halt. Ben thompson wrote that the structure of the deal itself said far more clearly than anything else, that broadcom wanted to feast off of qualcom's past innovations and contribute far less to future ones than qualcom would on its own.
