What's behind this
Nvidia’s shares fell sharply after co‑founder Jensen Huang resigned as president and chief executive with immediate effect. The stock dropped about 13% at the open and nearly 10% in pre‑market trading, contributing to an estimated $800 billion loss for the company this week. The board said Huang, 63, also gave up his board seat, and cited no reason for his departure. CFO Colette Kress was named interim CEO while retaining her finance role, and the board will evaluate internal and external candidates for a permanent replacement. The resignation follows allegations of personal affairs and a national‑security controversy involving a Chinese businesswoman.
