Nvidia confirmed it would buy Hugging Face for about $12.9 billion. [1] TechCrunch filed the confirmation on the 3rd. [1] Confirmation is not closing. Monday has no close date in fetched copy. Print not closed. Do not print a closed deal.

U.S. exchanges are shut. A holiday tape cannot close a 2027 regulatory clock. Leave a named close to the edition that owns a named close. Print the confirmation. Print not a close.

Print not closed. Monday is not a Hugging Face close. $12.9 billion remains last week's named price. Print not closed as Monday's named deal hold. An open platform pledge is still not a close. Print the confirmation as still not closing. Print $12.9 billion as still last week's named figure. Print not closed as still the only honest Monday word.
