Intel (INTC) shares pop on reports that Broadcom (AVGO) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) are considering deals to split Intel into two.
Wedbush Securities managing director of hardware equity research Matt Bryson joins Market Domination with Julie Hyman and Alexandra Canal to discuss the challenges a potential deal would face.
Bryson says the regulatory hurdles are "really the question" of the potential deal. He explains whether the "Trump administration [would] be willing to allow a Taiwanese company to operate the largest set of fab assets in the US" will matter.
"Then also you run into issues in terms of getting this deal across or by other regulatory authorities," the analyst says, noting that there will likely be a question of competition as all players involved hold a significant market share, comparing the two companies' prospective holds on chip manufacturing factory production.
