FBI probes Nvidia CEO's relationship with alleged Chinese spy

pravda.com.ua (Ukrainian) —

US President Donald Trump said the FBI is investigating a relationship between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and an alleged Chinese spy. Trump stated he spoke with Huang on Monday and believes Huang's denial of knowing the woman was a spy. China's Foreign Ministry dismissed the allegations as "absolutely unfounded" and aimed at discrediting the country. Nvidia, which commissioned an independent investigation, said it has no reason to believe company secrets or national security were compromised. Trump did not provide details on the investigation's timeline. The allegations follow reports that Huang had a romantic relationship with a Chinese woman recruited for espionage. Nvidia shares fell about 6% in premarket trading after the news, adding to a 22% decline from October peaks amid broader AI stock losses.
