what happened
Moody's, citing a Financial Times report, says Nvidia has reportedly approached Arm Holdings CEO Rene Haas as it looks for a successor to Jensen Huang, who resigned as president and chief executive on November 12. Nvidia's board says it is still choosing an executive search firm and has not formally approached any candidates.
Haas spent seven years at Nvidia before joining Arm in 2013, and has led the company since February 2022. Under his leadership Arm listed on Nasdaq in September 2023, and its designs are used in smartphones, computers, data centres and cars. Some Nvidia employees have reportedly urged the board to bring Huang back.
why it matters
The leadership change at a key supplier of AI chips adds uncertainty for both Nvidia and Arm. Investors will watch who the board picks and how the new chief shapes strategy in AI computing, chip exports to China and competition.
