Jensen Huang resigns from Nvidia; Congress weighs subpoena over alleged Chinese spy ties

Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia's CEO on Thursday amid reports of alleged affairs, while House lawmakers continue seeking his testimony over concerns about Chinese intelligence access. Congress may issue a subpoena if a hearing date cannot be agreed upon. House Select Committee on China Chair John Moolenaar said talks are underway to schedule Huang's appearance, following a November 4 letter requesting a closed-door briefing on November 18. Lawmakers want to question Huang about potential Chinese intelligence access during the affair and his lobbying on U.S. chip export restrictions. Nvidia's board launched an independent inquiry into whether Huang was targeted by foreign intelligence, finding no evidence company secrets or national security were compromised. Interim CEO Colette Kress, Nvidia's CFO since 2013, has an estimated net worth of $1.2 billion.
