Center-Right Owned by Bennett, Coleman & Co.China dismisses spy plot claim involving Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang as smear campaign

Nvidia shares fell more than 8 % in early trading after the company announced an internal board inquiry into whether chief executive Jensen Huang had been the focus of a foreign intelligence operation, raising concerns about his future and highlighting the lack of a clearly identified successor. The slide was about 5 % in pre‑market trading after Huang disclosed a romantic relationship in a memo to employees, a decline that would mean roughly a $225 billion loss in market capitalisation. The allegations have renewed scrutiny of China’s intelligence activities, with a CSIS database listing 224 reported Chinese espionage cases targeting the US since 2000.
