Nvidia CEO faces dismissal as second affair allegation emerges

aftonbladet.se (Swedish) —

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang faces potential dismissal as a second alleged extramarital affair has been revealed, following an earlier scandal involving a woman linked to Chinese intelligence. The company's board is preparing to meet Wednesday to decide his future. The New York Times reports Huang had a relationship with Kimberly Powell, a senior executive in Nvidia's healthcare division, according to five former employees. Both are married to others, and the pair were allegedly filmed showing affection at a San Jose hotel in March, though the video's authenticity is unverified. Nvidia's stock fell 8.7% in after-hours trading, with the company losing $1,000 billion in market value since the first affair report. Huang apologized Sunday for the initial affair, while President Trump called him a "honorable guy" who has done a "fantastic job."
