- Nvidia shares fell 5.9% in premarket trading.

## Summary

New reports of a second alleged affair involving Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang have intensified scrutiny of his position, with the company’s board reportedly preparing to decide his future. The allegations concern Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice-president of healthcare, who reports to Huang; the reports cite people familiar with the relationship, while Nvidia and Powell have not commented.

The claims follow earlier reports linking Huang to Alice Huang, an executive at Nvidia customer Megaspeed whom US officials reportedly believe is a Chinese intelligence asset; China denies the allegation. Huang acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife in a letter to staff, and Nvidia’s board has opened an independent investigation. Nvidia shares fell 5.9% to $163.43 in premarket trading after losing about $430 billion in market value over two sessions; possible successors reportedly under discussion include Colette Kress, Ian Buck and former Nvidia executive Rene Haas.
