Trump has publicly backed Nvidia chief Jensen Huang as the FBI examines his alleged affair with a Chinese agent, prompting national‑security concerns about access to advanced AI chips and the company’s business in China. A top House Democrat has demanded a full briefing on Huang’s links to the suspected spy, while a proposed class‑action lawsuit accuses Nvidia and Huang of defrauding shareholders by concealing those ties. Nvidia’s board said it is opening a probe after Huang disclosed an intimate relationship with a business executive linked to foreign intelligence. The company’s shares fell more than 8% before recovering to a loss of about 5%.
