Nvidia board weighs ousting CEO Jensen Huang over spy affair reports

ndtv.com —

Nvidia's board is preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang following reports of extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy, according to the Wall Street Journal. The board may meet as soon as Wednesday to decide his fate. The reports follow Huang's acknowledgment of being unfaithful to his wife, amid a board investigation into whether he was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. The New York Times earlier reported an affair with a company executive who reported to him. Nvidia has not commented on the reports, and its shares fell about 8% in after-hours trading. The board's decision could have major implications for the company's leadership.
