Nvidia has yet to receive the necessary approvals from UK, European Union, US and Chinese anti-competition authorities for the deal, which was first announced last September. On a split-adjusted basis, the stock is down a massive 75% in the last one month alone, likely driven by the company’s proposed US$40 billion acquisition of UK chipmaker Arm Ltd, which remains inconclusive. The opening price had been based on the company’s final pre-split trading price of US$751 on 19 July. The semiconductor stock opened at a split-adjusted price of US$187 on Tuesday (20 July 2021), before finishing the session just slightly lower at US$186. Nvidia shares opened 1.4% higher a day after it began trading on a four-for-one stock split basis.
