Although no official word on NVIDIA's rumored failed acquisition of Arm has been announced, UK politicians are now pushing for SoftBank to float Arm Holdings on the UK stock market. This has at least to some degree to do with the fact that the UK wants to keep Arm in the UK, partially due to some claimed national security concerns that apparently weren't present five years ago when the company was sold to SoftBank.

Arm Holdings is said to be worth around £30 billion on its own and several British MP's (Members of Parliament) have stepped up to say that the Arm Holdings should return to the London stock market rather than elsewhere, such as New York, "to ensure its interests and those of its investors are aligned with our national interest" and that the company "should stay British". Time will tell what happens to Arm, but until we have official word from NVIDIA and SoftBank, we have to assume that there's still ongoing discussions between the two parties.
