Actually NVIDIA just took over Saudi Aramco, but they are sharing 3rd position.



I read this comment as "NVIDIA just took over Saudi Aramco" and was briefly confused in what could possibly be their reasoning for that acquisition?! Perhaps they decided to get some weird lower price on fuel for their gpus.... Anyways it was a brief but fun bit of confusion.


This was a good opportunity to say "overtook" as it breaks the idea of acquisition (and sounds more like racing)


To be fair, this is the time for NVIDIA to leverage their stock and buy up shit to diversify because their stock is going to correct eventually lol. So why not buy out a oil producer ahaha.


I did too. It's confusing wording. Overtook would be much clearer as someone else mentioned.
