Nvidia board weighs CEO Jensen Huang's future after alleged affair with subordinate
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang faces potential removal after reports of an alleged second affair with a subordinate, according to US media. The board is reportedly meeting Wednesday to decide his future. The Wall Street Journal and New York Times report Huang had a relationship with Kimberly Powell, a vice president overseeing health business. Nvidia previously said Huang would continue leading, but the stock fell about eight percent in after-hours trading. The case has political implications as Nvidia dominates AI chip production amid US-China tech rivalry. Authorities are investigating whether the affair with a Chinese woman gave Beijing access to banned chips. Nvidia has lost over $300 billion in market value since the affair became public.
