SoftBank Takes $4B Stake in Nvidia
Well since this is Hacker News one question that immediately pops in my mind: why does SoftBank invest so much money in existing companies, instead of doing something a la YCombinator? Get a panel of VC's, allow them to invest some of this money in new ideas and such... wouldn't that be a better investment than buying so much stock in existing companies?I'm trying to understand what SoftBank's endgame is here...
