Nvidia’s board of directors is moving to “oust” embattled CEO Jensen Huang after he had two alleged affairs, one with an executive in the company and another with a suspected Chinese spy. The Wall Street Journal broke the news on Wednesday evening after Nvidia’s stock closed slightly up for the day.
“The board is preparing to meet as soon as today to determine his future, people familiar with the matter said,” reported the WSJ.
The New York Times appeared to put the final nail in Huang’s coffin on Wednesday when it reported that he had a second affair, amid the ongoing fallout from the news of the first.
“The relationship, which has not been previously reported, was with Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of health care, said the people, who spoke under the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive information,” reported the Times, adding:
Under Nvidia’s code of conduct, employees are told to “avoid situations where our actions create conflict” including “personal relationships,” and the company states that it “promptly investigates reports of misconduct.” Many corporations have policies against managers having relationships with subordinates.
CNBC’s Washington correspondent Megan Cassella reported on the reaction in DC earlier in the day, noting that “lawmakers from both parties are clamoring for more accountability from Jensen Huang.” Cassella added:
Republican Senator Kevin Cramer this morning called for Huang to resign, telling CNBC, “It’s like, my God, this is a guy that’s right now so vulnerable to extortion, to blackmail. I just don’t think, as a national security matter, we can run the risk.” Now, Cramer also said that Huang had been arrogant and dismissive in meetings with lawmakers about the potential national security risks of sending China advanced chips. He said the chances of some form of export control bill for chips being passed before the end of this year are pretty high. And that’s indicative, guys, of what could be one big near-term impact of this scandal. It has reignited support on the Hill for legislation tightening chip sales, which would have impacts far beyond Nvidia alone. And separately, three House Republicans who have called on Huang to testify next week say they’re giving him until the end of the day today to respond to their request. And if he doesn’t reply, they say they’re prepared to issue a subpoena.
Cramer’s stance was a direct contradiction of President Donald Trump, who has supported Huang. The North Dakota Republican also told the network, “I can’t believe we are even considering him not resigning. I mean, I do feel that strongly about it.”

NVDA is down $15 in afterhgours trading.
How smart is it really? Not all that smart. The flaws in Nvidia are the same flaws that crashed every kingdom and empire for over 5000 years. Hubris, greed, sloth, sexual lust.
A tale as old as time. The stakes are insanely high though.
Congress being outraged is hilarious.
If we tossed out every member of Congress that screwed around on their spouse there would be no Congress.
They just think its cool to “get a billionaire.”
Being Nvidia CEO couldn’t be all that demanding, if the present CEO has enough time to have two affairs simultaneously! Talk about managing to spin a dish on a pole!
Old news...he’s already gone.
Per Polymarket
BREAKING: Jensen Huang’s daughter, Madison Huang, emerges as the leading candidate to become Nvidia’s next CEO.
Communist China has the largest population of educated psychopathic criminals in the world. NVidia is 100% intellectual property that can fit on a thumb drive. Almost everything physical is made in Taiwan by Chinese people. AI is possibly the most important technology ever invented. You don’t need a GPU to do the math of what happens next.
Me Chinese
me play joke
me put pee pee in your coke
she is would be a good choice to ensure that the stock does not crash too much
Madison previously worked in the hotel industry and is currently director of product marketing at Nvidia.
The little head got the best of the big head... again!
“Congress being outraged is hilarious.”
No kidding.
Sen. Diane Feinstein and her Chinese chauffeur of decades.
Eric Swalwell & Fang Fang.
Outrageous!
How is this in the stock holders’ interest?
I wonder what AI can tell us about all of the DNA that China collected through 23 and Me, and similar genealogical businesses. (Predicive text suggested “genocide”)
Somehow the Chinese got Americans to go nuclear against Data centers, threaten the richess man in the world with Prison and tear down the richess company in the world and get 30 states to go straight communist…All in 2026. You don’t have to like them but you gotta respect their game.
“Congress being outraged is hilarious.”
No kidding.
Sen. Diane Feinstein and her Chinese chauffeur of decades.
Eric Swalwell & Fang Fang.
Outrageous!

Since we became a foreign centric economic bizzaro country starting in the 1980’s, none of these stories about foreigners getting information about our corporations or governments surprises me.
“Globalist Birds Flock Together.”
America First!
Good point. It’s probably not.
I urge all FReepers with 5090 cards to sell them ASAP before prices collapse.
I am starting a special fund to help purchase your endangered 5090 cards as we speak. Fear not!
