Trump floats Tim Cook to lead Nvidia after Jensen Huang steps down
Donald Trump has suggested that former Apple chief Tim Cook should lead Nvidia after Jensen Huang stepped down. The proposal comes as reports of Huang’s alleged relationships, including one involving a suspected Chinese spy, have prompted scrutiny of the chipmaker and questions about possible security risks.
Huang co-founded Nvidia 33 years ago and led it to become the most valuable company in the US, with a reported $4 trillion valuation; Trump described his tenure as “fantastic”. Nvidia is investigating the allegations, while Republican lawmakers have sought a closed-door briefing with Huang and some have backed subpoenaing him. Cook left Apple’s chief executive role in September after 15 years.
In short
- Trump proposed Tim Cook as Nvidia’s next chief executive.
