- On Monday, President Donald Trump stated the FBI is investigating Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang regarding an alleged affair with a Chinese government agent, calling Huang a "very honorable man" at a White House briefing.
- Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Guo Jiakun denied the allegations on Monday, calling them a "smear campaign against Beijing," while the state-owned Global Times claimed the report aims to disrupt improving China-US relations.
- Nvidia shares dropped roughly 5% in pre-market trading early Monday as Huang previously lobbied Washington to permit sales of advanced H200 and H20 chips to China, winning approval from Trump this year.
- Huang told Trump he "had absolutely no idea" the individual was a spy, while George Chen, a partner at The Asia Group, noted that questions regarding compromise of sensitive information require evidence rather than speculation.

In Trump speak, “very honorable” just means “donated enough.”

We have MILLIONS of Indian and Pakistani citizens in the USA running our most sensitive computer systems. And we are worried about this? Really? Beam me up Scotty!

Huang is unusual is that - despite co-founding Nvdia and being in charge of nearly all aspects of the company, he only owns 3% of outstanding shares.
By contrast, Elon Musk owns 19.9% of Tesla shares and 48.4% of SpaceX shares.
Zuckerberg owns 13.6% of Meta.
