Nvidia’s board has a mess on its hands. The company is dealing with allegations that Jensen Huang’s former romantic partner helped move restricted AI chips into China, an FBI inquiry, shareholder lawsuits and now reports of another alleged affair involving an Nvidia executive. Directors reportedly met Wednesday night to discuss Huang’s future. Shares are down nearly 8% premarket, extending a brutal week that has erased hundreds of billions in market value.
Here’s the problem for Nvidia investors: Huang isn’t just another CEO they can replace with an executive search. He’s been running the company for more than three decades, built its AI strategy and personally cultivated relationships with the industry’s biggest customers. There isn’t an obvious replacement waiting in the wings. Nvidia still has enormous demand for its chips, but the company now has to deal with a leadership crisis right before its November 17 earnings. That’s a lot of uncertainty to dump on shareholders in one week.
