Nvidia board weighs CEO Jensen Huang's ouster amid affair revelations
Nvidia's board is reportedly considering removing Jensen Huang as CEO following revelations of two extramarital affairs, according to the Wall Street Journal. One alleged partner is suspected of espionage for China, and the stock fell 8.4% in after-hours trading. The New York Times reported a relationship between Huang and Kimberly Powell, a vice president reporting directly to him, citing five sources. The board may meet imminently to discuss his future, raising governance and national security concerns, with an independent investigation planned. Huang has apologized for being unfaithful to his wife. China dismissed the espionage allegations as baseless, and Nvidia has found no evidence of leaked secrets. No official decision on his removal has been announced.
