Jensen Huang has resigned as chief executive of Nvidia with immediate effect, Reuters reported, after reports of a second affair deepened the scandal surrounding him, the BBC reported .
Nvidia announced a chief executive transition, the company said.
Huang was already engulfed by personal scandal, the BBC reported days earlier .
The resignation comes after a violent swing in AI stocks. Nvidia and SpaceX lost billions in market value as tech and AI stocks plunged, the BBC reported . Stock markets in Taiwan, South Korea and Japan were hit hard by the AI sell-off . AI stocks then climbed after trillions had been wiped from market values, the BBC reported .
The stakes sit in the timing: the chief executive leaves at the centre of a scandal, in the middle of a market swing that has already cost Nvidia billions in value .
What is known is the resignation itself, its timing, and the scandal behind it, as reported by the BBC and Reuters. What is not yet known is who will succeed him, what the company said about the reason beyond announcing the transition, or how the market has reacted — none of that appeared in today's intake.
