While G42 initially agreed to buy USD 335 mn worth of Cerebras shares by April 15, according to the prospectus, the two companies later changed the agreement to say it would be buying non-voting shares, meaning they can now withdraw their notice since that did not require a CFIUS review. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> <strong>Background: <\/strong>The CFIUS had been weighing concerns over the group\u2019s past ties with China\u2019s Huawei, despite G42 signing a US national security agreement to sever ties with Huawei and divest all of its Chinese investments. A listing could raise as much as USD 1 bn at a USD 7-8 bn valuation, Bloomberg has reported.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How much does G42 own of Cerebras? <\/strong>The company acquired a 1% stake in Cerebas in 2021 through an affiliate for USD 40 mn. They later signed a convertible purchase agreement to acquire another 22.9 mn shares for USD 335 mn, and under certain circumstances, will have the option to acquire additional shares at a 17.5% discount to the fair market value of its Class A stocks at the time the agreement was inked. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Their relationship goes deeper than just that of a shareholder and its subsidiary: <\/strong>G42 accounts for some 87% of Cerebras\u2019 revenues in 1H 2024, the company said in the prospectus.

While Wall Street managed to end the day unscathed yesterday before Trump began his speech at Rose Garden, futures reversed earlier gains following the end of the speech, which saw him announce a new global order marked by a 10% tariff on all US imports, along with higher reciprocal tariffs on certain countries. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>S&amp;P 500 futures fell to a 3.6% loss, while Nasdaq futures were down 4.5%<\/strong> after gaining earlier on Wednesday, as companies like Nvidia, Amazon, and Apple saw their shares fall sharply in after-hours trading. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>BTC also fell below USD 85k in response to the tariffs<\/strong>, as the announcement triggered a wide-ranging risk-off amid fears of a trade war and a US recession. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>It\u2019s far from over: Countries are widely expected to retaliate following the news, though some might also choose to negotiate with the US. <\/strong>Trump did suggest he would be willing to reduce tariffs if other nations remove trade barriers on US exports during his speech. The EU, however, and Canada, are already readying countermeasures set to be announced later today. <\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets also plunged in early trading<\/strong>, as the biggest victims of Trump\u2019s\u2019 trade war digest the news. Japan\u2019s Nikkei and Topix led losses, both down more than 2%, paring losses of over 4% at open. Meanwhile, Hong Kong\u2019s Hang Seng was down 1.2%, and mainland China\u2019s CS 300 dipped 0.5%.
