- Nvidia shares fell as investors weighed the leadership change.

## Summary

Nvidia has appointed its long-serving finance chief, Colette Kress, as interim chief executive after Jensen Huang resigned, ending his 33-year leadership. The change comes as investors question whether the $4 trillion chipmaker can sustain its AI-era dominance without its high-profile founder.

Kress joined Nvidia in 2013 and has been its chief financial officer for 13 years, overseeing its shift from gaming chips to technology central to the AI boom. She previously held senior finance roles at Microsoft, Cisco and Texas Instruments. Nvidia shares fell by as much as 13 per cent at the market open; the company’s new chair, Harvey Jones, said the board had full confidence in Kress and that operations and the product roadmap would continue uninterrupted.
