Nvidia Corp shares fell 1.2% to $188.22 at Monday’s close after Intel said in a filing that the AI chip designer had completed a $5 billion purchase of Intel stock. The deal covered about 214.7 million newly issued shares priced at $23.28 each in a private placement — a sale directly to one buyer rather than on the open market — and it has been viewed as a financial lifeline for Intel after heavy spending on expanding production capacity. U.S. antitrust agencies, which review deals for competition concerns, cleared the investment earlier this month, a notice posted by the Federal Trade Commission showed, and Nvidia traded between $186.06 and $189.12 in the session.
