NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) agreed to buy Arm Holdings from the Japanese conglomerate SoftBank Group (OTC:SFTBF) for $40 billion. Arm, which is based in the U.K., doesn t sell any chips on its own. It licenses its low-power chip designs and architecture to chipmakers like NVIDIA, Qualcomm, and Apple. More than 95% of the world s smartphones now run on Arm-based CPUs.

By buying Arm, NVIDIA would no longer pay any licensing fees for its own Arm-based CPUs, and it could generate a fresh stream of higher-margin licensing revenue from other chipmakers. It could also design new Arm-based chips internally, which could work alongside its high-end GPUs for data centers. ....

Tax act amendment set to plug tax evaders’ loophole By Chen Cheng-hui / Staff reporter The Executive Yuan yesterday approved an amendment to the Tax Collection Act (稅捐稽徵法) that would increase fines for tax evasion, aiming to fix a loophole that allows tax evaders to get away with milder penalties. Under the existing act, people found to have intentionally evaded paying their taxes face a fine of up to NT$60,000 (US$2,114) or five years in prison.

Writing in the Frontiers in Nutrition journal, the Taiwan-based pilot study points to the benefits psychobiotic supplementation has on the high-pressure Information Technology (IT) industry. The research team believes the Lactobacillus plantarum strain (PS128) causes molecules to be released in the gut which travel to the brain possibly causing serotonin and dopamine levels to rise. “We are very pleased to see these results in people, to verify what we have already seen preclinically,” comments Dr Alain Delpy, head of global development at Bened Biomedical, who took part and financially supported the study. ....
