I don't recall Qualcomm trying to buy ARM.

Thanks for correcting me.

That'd be a more horizontal acquisition than a vertical one as Qualcomm doesn't make x86 chips so they can at least argue it wouldn't be anti-competitive.

Not sure if AMD and Nvidia, will see it that way, and they will probably lobby to stop the deal.
