☆ Oracle spends more than $100 million on Ampere chips
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-22 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +1 min

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 22 (Reuters) - Oracle Corp (ORCL.N) agreed to prepay $104.1 million for processor chips made by startup Ampere Computing, according to Oracle's proxy statement filed on Friday. Oracle also invested $400 million in Ampere through a convertible note in its fiscal 2023, the proxy said. Ampere builds custom server chips based on Arm technology that compete with designs produced by Intel (INTC.O) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O), which use X86. Oracle has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in Ampere since it was founded, according to filings. Amazon.com makes its own server chips that compete with Ampere, and Google makes its own artificial intelligence processors.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 19 (Reuters) - Oracle (ORCL.N) said on Tuesday that it would use Ampere Computing's flagship processor chips in its cloud computing service, in a boost to the chip company that has filed for an initial public offering. Ampere aimed to create chips that are designed to be more energy efficient than traditional processors from Intel and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O), both of which have subsequently announced offerings that compete with Ampere's chips. Oracle is a major investor in Ampere and was among the first cloud companies to adopt its chips in 2021. Ampere said last month that Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google Cloud unit would offer its newest chips, which feature computing cores custom designed by Ampere. Cloud computing companies are among the largest purchasers of chips, buying them en masse and renting them out to software developers.

☆ Oracle's post-earnings slide is 'one of the greatest overreactions' Cramer has seen. Here’s his advice on the stock

The post-earnings sell-off in Oracle (ORCL) is overdone and a clear-cut buying opportunity, Jim Cramer said Tuesday. Still, Oracle delivered robust growth in cloud-computing services, making the stock's slide Tuesday "one of the greatest overreactions I've ever seen," according to Jim. We recognize the challenges facing other parts of Oracle's business, including Cerner and some of its traditional business software offerings. This mix enables us to view Tuesday's stock decline as another entry point, rather than a reason to walk out the door.
