Trump had urged Jensen Huang to fight for his job: report
The call came as Nvidia faced a board investigation and a 14% share drop after reports of multiple affairs and alleged ties to a Chinese spy.
- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is stepping down following scrutiny over his personal life, with Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress assuming interim leadership while the board searches for a permanent successor.

- Kress stated the company will "continue advancing the work that has made Nvidia a leader in accelerated computing," as Huang's departure creates uncertainty for the AI ecosystem he helped bankroll.
- Nvidia is scheduled to present third-quarter fiscal 2027 financial results on November 17, a key test as the company navigates the leadership transition and US chip export policy uncertainties.
