Trump suggests Tim Cook to lead Nvidia after Huang's exit

washingtonpost.com [$] —

President Donald Trump suggested that former Apple CEO Tim Cook should replace Jensen Huang as Nvidia's CEO following Huang's ouster, though no indication exists that the company is considering Cook or that Trump has influence over the decision. Nvidia's CFO Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO while the company searches for a permanent leader. Trump praised Huang's performance, calling his departure a "Legend replaces a Legend" situation, and noted their close relationship during his second term. Cook stepped down as Apple CEO this year after transforming the company into a global market leader. He remains chairman of Apple's board and previously courted Trump during his tenure.
