Anything from Seeking Alpha is desperate click bait. Ignore anything from them, seriously.
Raghu needs to tell those investors to shut up focus on the main thing like he does to us. I don't know about you, but that always boosts and helps my confidence level. sarcasm

So when Donald trump blocks Broadcom from acquiring Qualcomm it is good, but Kahn blocking Broadcom from acquiring VMware is bad? Broadcom is the bad actor here… ah, my microwave popcorn just finished, ttyl
The investors are right to be worried. Wall Street Journal has this for recent headline
The FTC Is Working With the EU to Hamstring U.S. Companies
Chair Lina Khan wants foreign help to impose her agenda that Congress wouldn’t pass.
This doesn’t bode well for the merge. If BC wants the deal really bad, they have to fight hard for it.
Whatever makes you feel better. They’re only speculating and it seems those who sold don’t think FTC will approve with their initial assessment. The drama is only starting to unfold. It really is 50/50 at this point. It’s a gamble holding our stock right now. Think about the opportunity cost for the investors. The upside isn’t that much but the downside is unknown. I wouldn’t call the investors or the article stupid.
Stupid article. They claim that, because VMW stock went down on 2% on Friday, it is evidence people are worried about the merger. Yet by that same token (and unsaid in the article), VMW stock went up by more than 2% earlier that week. So is that evidence the stock market is happy about the merger?
Investors seemed nervous. There was a mild sell off today and also after hours.
What does that actually mean or is it just random information that means nothing?
