Weighing The Cons Of Alibaba's Chip Development

$Alibaba(BABA.US)$  has developed a chip which is based on $SoftBank Group (ADR)(SFTBY.US)$ $SOFTBANK GROUP CORP(SFTBF.US)$ backed British chipmaker Arm Holding's architecture, and is marred in controversies, California New Times reports.Many tout the Japanese tech investors' sale of Arm to $NVIDIA(NVDA.US)$ as questionable.The new chip will support Alibaba's data centers and servers that enhance logistics, e-commerce, and fast-growing cloud services. Interestingly, Arm has earned a name for manufacturing cutting-edge processors in both cost and power efficiency. Coincidentally, China suffers from an electricity crisis. Still, it is unlikely that Softbank will make a profit for Alibaba, which is also a shareholder.
