## Summary

Nvidia shares fell a further 5.5 per cent after Donald Trump said the FBI was looking into chief executive Jensen Huang’s affair with Alice Huang, described in the article as a suspected Chinese spy and unrelated to him. The disclosures have unsettled investors and raised questions about Huang’s future at the company, whose leadership is central to confidence in the AI boom.

Since peaking on 6 October, Nvidia’s value has fallen nearly 30 per cent to $4.1 trillion, a decline of about $1.7 trillion. The company’s board has commissioned an independent investigation, while Huang and Nvidia face a shareholder class action alleging they concealed the affair. Analysts warn that Huang’s departure could further reduce the company’s value; meanwhile, trading firm IG reported a five-fold rise in clients buying Nvidia shares during the sell-off.
