Dec 29 (Reuters) - ⁠Nvidia has ⁠purchased ‍Intel shares worth $5 billion, the American semiconductor firm said ‍in a filing on Monday, ​carrying out a transaction announced in ​September.

The leading AI chip designer said in September it would pay $23.28 per share for Intel ​common stock, in a deal that is seen as a ​major financial lifeline for the chipmaker after ‌years of missteps and capital intensive production capacity expansions drained its ​finances.

The world's most ⁠valuable firm has bought over 214.7 million Intel shares ‌at the price set out in the September agreement, in a ‌private placement, according to Monday's filing.

U.S. antitrust ‌agencies had cleared Nvidia's investment in Intel, according to a notice posted by the ‍U.S. Federal Trade Commission earlier in December.

Nvidia shares were ⁠down 1.3% in premarket trading while Intel stock was little changed.
