Story summary

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, admitted to an affair amid allegations that he was targeted by a suspected Chinese spy. This has led to a significant decline in Nvidia's stock prices, with shares falling by 8% upon trading opening on Monday. The company’s board launched an independent investigation into these claims, naming former acting U.S. attorney Joon H. Kim to lead the inquiry. Additionally, U.S. Congress requested that Huang testify at a closed-door briefing regarding Nvidia's security protocols against foreign espionage. The scandal has raised concerns about potential vulnerabilities in corporate and national security, given Huang’s close ties with both the tech industry and former President Trump.
