what happened
According to Reuters, which cites two people familiar with the matter, Jensen Huang, who was removed as Nvidia's chief executive, had an intimate relationship with another employee of the company. The report follows two earlier extramarital affairs that led to his dismissal on Thursday.
The two women previously linked to him are Alice Huang, whom US intelligence suspects of spying for China, and Kimberly Powell, Nvidia's head of healthcare. Reuters is withholding the second employee's name. Nvidia declined to comment, while Powell, Huang and a board representative did not respond to requests, and Alice Huang could not be reached.
On November 8, Huang acknowledged an affair in a statement that did not name Alice Huang.
why it matters
For investors, the key question is how the personal controversy affects Nvidia's leadership during a transition. Personal matters seldom alter a company's financial results directly, but they can add uncertainty and weigh on sentiment around the stock.
