Trump Says Broadcom Is Moving Headquarters To US From Singapore (bloomberg.com)

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Bloomberg: President Donald Trump said semiconductor company Broadcom Ltd. is returning its headquarters to the U.S. from Singapore. Broadcom Chief Executive Officer Hock Tan joined Trump Thursday in the Oval Office for the announcement. Tan said the move to domicile the company in the U.S. would bring $20 billion in revenue into the country. The two men didn't specify the site of the new main location. Broadcom's website lists San Jose, California, as an existing corporate co-headquarters and has done so since the present company was created in 2016 in one of the semiconductor industry's largest acquisitions when Avago Technologies Ltd. acquired then-Broadcom Corp. The company's shares declined as much as 4 percent to $248.87 after the announcement. The stock had gained 47 percent this year through Wednesday's close.

    More American job opportunities for engineers is great news. Letâ(TM)s just accept that as good news. No need to politicize more jobs.

    I sure wish dumb cunts like you would accept reality: Unicode doesn't work here. Stop trying to use it. It just makes you look stupid, like the retarded Asspie who keeps trying to force a square peg into a round hole.

    I just want to whip out my dick and PISS all in your FACE until you finally learn.
