Trump Suggests Tim Cook as Nvidia CEO After Huang Resigns

economictimes.indiatimes.com —

President Donald Trump has proposed that former Apple CEO Tim Cook replace Jensen Huang as Nvidia's CEO, following Huang's resignation on Thursday amid reports of an affair with a Chinese businesswoman suspected of spying for Beijing. Nvidia has named CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO while searching for a permanent successor. Cook, who stepped down as Apple's CEO in September after 15 years, grew the company's market capitalization from $350 billion to $4 trillion and nearly quadrupled annual revenue to over $416 billion. Huang, who co-founded Nvidia and is its fourth-largest investor, had developed close ties with the Trump administration, supporting its AI agenda and lobbying for looser restrictions on chip sales to China, a stance now under renewed scrutiny from lawmakers.
