Trump says FBI probes Nvidia CEO's affair with alleged Chinese spy

bbc.com —

President Donald Trump said the FBI is investigating an affair between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and an alleged Chinese spy, following reports of a Chinese espionage campaign targeting the executive. Trump said he spoke with Huang on Monday, who denied knowing the woman, identified as Alice Huang, was a spy. The allegations wiped about $250 billion off Nvidia's market value as shares fell roughly 4 percent. Beijing dismissed the claims as groundless, while Nvidia said it found no evidence its secrets or national security were compromised. Huang has apologized for being unfaithful and agreed to cooperate with an internal investigation.
