Nvidia stock falls after company opens probe into CEO’s relationship with Chinese spy

Nvidia's stock dropped about 4% on Monday, erasing over $200 billion in market value, after the company announced an investigation into CEO Jensen Huang's relationship with a woman identified by U.S. intelligence agencies as a Chinese spy. Huang admitted in an email to employees that he had been unfaithful to his wife. The probe, overseen by a committee of independent directors, could disrupt the AI boom and has raised questions about Huang's future at the company he founded in 1993. Nvidia's board stated it has no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised but did not provide further details. President Trump expressed support for Huang, likely reducing the chance of his removal in the near term. Analysts warn the scandal could lead to congressional inquiries and create ongoing risk for the stock, given Huang's central role in Nvidia's success.
