This is not good news for the U.S. technology sector and the global race for dominant AI specifically.
Given the dependency of the U.S. AI race on the specific hardware provided by the world’s second largest corporation (measured by capitalization) the resignation of President and CEO Jensen Huang could have significant ramifications.
Obviously, those global interests who are rushing to catch up to the USA position, as well as those who are opposed to datacenters and AI development, are celebrating the news.
PRESS RELEASE – NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) Board of Directors announced today that Jensen Huang has resigned as President, Chief Executive Officer, and a member of the Board, effective immediately.
Colette Kress, current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NVIDIA, has agreed to serve as Interim Chief Executive Officer. Kress will continue to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer while serving as Interim Chief Executive Officer until a permanent successor has been named. The Board is initiating a search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer and will consider internal and external candidates.
Kress has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NVIDIA since joining the company in September 2013. During her tenure, she has led the company’s finance organization and has played a key role in NVIDIA’s growth and evolution. Prior to joining NVIDIA, Kress spent nearly 25 years in finance roles at leading technology companies, including Cisco and Microsoft.
The Board of Directors appointed Harvey C. Jones as its first-ever Chair of the Board. Mr. Jones has been an entrepreneur, technology executive, and active venture investor for over 30 years, including serving as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of Synopsys.
“Colette has helped lead NVIDIA through a period of extraordinary growth and has a deep understanding of our business, customers, operations and financial position,” said Harvey Jones, Chair of the NVIDIA Board of Directors. “She is supported by an experienced leadership team that has been instrumental in executing NVIDIA’s strategy and advancing its technology roadmap. The Board has full confidence in Colette and the leadership team, and we expect the company’s operations, customer commitments and product roadmap to continue without interruption.”
“NVIDIA’s strength has always come from its people, and together with our leadership team, I am committed to building on the extraordinary foundation Jensen created over the last 33 years,” said Colette Kress, Interim CEO and CFO, NVIDIA. “We will continue advancing the work that has made NVIDIA a leader in accelerated computing and AI, and execute on the opportunities ahead. Our focus remains on serving our customers, partners, developers and shareholders.”
Jensen’s contributions to NVIDIA are profound. NVIDIA is one of the most consequential technology companies in the world. The Board and the company thank Jensen for his immeasurable contributions to the company and the industry.
NVIDIA will report its third-quarter fiscal 2027 financial results on Tuesday, November 17, at approximately 1:20 p.m. PT, as previously scheduled, followed by its earnings call at 2 p.m. PT. (source)
The Nvidia board initiated an “independent investigation in light of recent reporting that founder and CEO Jensen Huang has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort,” the company said in a statement Sunday, noting that the investigation — which it said Huang “fully supports” — will be overseen by a “committee of independent directors, assisted by outside independent counsel.”
We will investigate after we hang him.
Impeccable logic from the Queen of Hearts.
Oh, where has that white rabbit run off in a hurry to now?
N/M
A point of view from MOA:
“Whatever one might say about Jensen Huang, the founder and CEO of Nvidia, he has done well for his company and those who own shares in it.
Some people dislike that:
OpenAI and Anthropic, the main U.S. model makers, would like exclusivity for their products. Nvidia’s Jensen Huang is favoring open source models as these are likely to create more demand for his chips.
Some ‘nationalist’ U.S. ideologues do not want their geopolitical competitors, i.e. China, to develop AI capabilities. Nvidia wants to sell more chips and has no reason to care where these are used.
The current attack on Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s founder and CEO, has to be understood in that context. The attack is based on anonymous allegations (for which there is zero evidence) that his partner in a love affair, Alice Huang (not related), has been spying for China. Another claim is that Nvidia has sold chips to Chinese entities without the appropriate export licenses.
There are obviously very powerful forces behind this attack. According to the NYT it was Secretary of State Marco Rubio who has distributed the allegations about Alice Huang. The claims about here alleged spying for China come from anonymous ‘U.S. intelligence’ sources without any evidence. The Economist Leader column is calling for Jensen Huang’s resignation before even the most basic facts are known.
The timing here is not by chance.
The intimate relations between the two Huangs seem to have been an open secret. Megaspeed has been on the U.S. intelligence radar since at least 2024. Smuggling allegations against Megaspeed, a Chinese related company in Singapore, have been publicly made since early 2025. Nvidia has done no business with the company since July 2025.
Someone pulled this rabbit out of the hat for a specific purpose.
As Fred Gao writes for Inside China:
The Jensen Huang Spy Story Doesn’t Add Up
This is a textbook case of intelligence agencies using insider leaks to shape the agenda. Once anonymous officials leak something to The New York Times and it gets printed, it becomes “fact” by default.
…
If you look at this through the lens of who benefits, the biggest winners are the hawks pushing for a chip embargo on China.
The U.S. is currently advancing three bills:
The AI Overwatch Act would give Congress oversight authority over advanced chip exports, to block White House decisions to loosen AI chip export licensing to China.
The Chip Security Act require companies to track where their chips go and build mechanisms such as location verification into controlled advanced chips, to combat smuggling and illegal transshipment.
The MATCH Act, which pressures U.S. allies to impose more export restrictions on chipmaking equipment to China.
Jensen Huang is the loudest voice in Washington against the chip bans. Prove that he is tied to a spy from China, and you can morally discredit everyone who opposes the export bans, and recast lobbying as

I agree with your thoughts from MOA. 👍👏
For the most part, MOA has quite a few Erudite

Respectfully, it’s called a “thingy”.
I thought it was called Dummy
I read that sentence in 2 different ways… 😉
Samson…
Remember, the good Lord gave a man a brain and a “thingy” but only enough blood to operate em one at a time.
And when all that blood rushes to the “THINGY” there is no blood for the brain to think logically. Or you can only use ONE HEAD at a time.
Now investigate the AI ‘slags’.
Hostile takeover
Putting a numbers girl in charge will destroy the company.
Not sure. NVIDA has huge capitalization. Someone deserves credit for that.
The Chinese do seem to have a considerable honeypot operation going. People in senior positions like Huang not only need to be aware of that, but also to keep their zipper under better control at all times.
We need AI powered zippers.

President TRUMP on Truth Social said that Tim Cook should replace Huang.
I wrote earlier about the first news of the resignation : What was really funny was the NBC reporter claiming that “both Republicans and Democrats have been worried about his connections to an alleged Chinese spy.”
I just about choked: the only thing DEMS would worry about is whether he could keep funneling information to the Chinese spy!
DEMS “worried about” Chinese espionage! It is to laugh!
Ugh, Tim Cook, why? Even if it is a good pick, he should stay out of it.
Tim Cook is loyal to Apple and would not leave no matter who suggests it.
Cook retired from Apple August, 2026.
He still holds a honorary position there.
Great. Let’s take a guess, a woman will be appointed.
Colette Kress, has two kids. She seems self made and did not go to a real leftist university. Based on publicly reported political donations, Colette Kress has financially supported Republican causes rather than Democratic causes.
Kress is an executive at NVIDIA.

I think this guy nails it.

“The Board is initiating a search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer and will consider internal and external candidates.”
Where can I send my resume? I could forgo retirement right now for a sweet gig like that.
Would it be kosher to mention on the resume that I know how to keep it in my pants, or save that for the interview stage of the hiring process?
When you go for the LIVE intervieww, just show up with a lock on your zipper. They will get the hint.

A few hours ago, I wrote: “They’re going to pull it off. Jensen Huang is going to be pushed out of Nvidia.”
It’s done.
Officially, Jensen Huang resigned. In reality, the board was getting ready to throw him out. Effective immediately. He’s also leaving the board. The CFO is stepping in as interim CEO. The board is even considering bringing in an outside CEO.
Thirty-three years. A company born in a Denny’s, saved from bankruptcy more than once, turned into the most important company of the AI era. Wiped away in a week.
Whatever you think of his private life, look at the mechanics.
A scandal breaks. Pressure builds in Washington. Columnists demand his head. The board, which never prepared a successor, panics. The founder is out. And the man who fought the restrictions, who defended open models, who stood up to Washington, is gone.
The playbook worked. And when a playbook works, it gets used again.
The next target is Elon.
Why him? Because he’s now the last builder of that scale who holds the entire chain. Rockets, satellites, energy, robots, AI, and soon chips with Terafab. He’s the only one who can build both the superintelligence and the rocket that carries it into space. And he just said publicly that hiring Jensen would be an honor.
For those who want to slow everything down, there’s no bigger target.
But they have a problem. You don’t fire Elon Musk the way you fire Jensen Huang. He holds voting control at SpaceX. No board can throw him out overnight.
So they’ll come at him another way. Regulators. Courts. Investigative committees. Government contracts. Media campaigns. Every weakness will be exploited, every mistake amplified, every procedure dragged out. They don’t need to fire him. They just need to wear him down, slow him down, make every project ten times more expensive.
Open your eyes, because this is going to move very fast.
What we’re living through right now isn’t news. It’s History.
In twenty years, this week will be taught in schools. The day America, in the middle of the race to superintelligence against China, took the man who made the chips for the entire planet out of the race. And people will ask what happened next.
The answer depends on what happens to Elon. And on what Jensen decides to do with the rest of his life.
I’m standing by my prediction.
We are living through History with a capital H.
The blob gets us all.
I think the Dems will want to keep Elon’s businesses going. From Starlink to SpaceX, there are govt contracts that they can skim off of, as well as add new taxes and fees (like you want to build a data center, here’s how much the permit will cost).
Sundance mentions exactly that in his list of things the Dems are already doing. This will replace the USAID funds that they were stealing.
If Jensen joined one of Elon’s companies, I think that would be great to have both of them working together.
This is why Musk floated taking Tesla private. I was surprised Space X went public but it needed the funding to ramp data center build out while
Probably seeing the opportunity to purchase Tesla (aka merge).
I don’t know how to feel about Jensen’s position on China. I see where allowing them some will keep them from building their own chips (which china is doing – no need to take over Taiwan if they figure that out), but also see blocking them; however you end up with the current case where the Chinese are buying all the high—end consumer you’d they can. Pricing sucks for the average person trying to build and experiment at home.
I see the future as AI being able to do more with less compute, but compute growing as well.

Do we know who her husband is?
Colette Kress, NVIDIA’s CFO, is married to David Kress, a retired Microsoft executive who worked at the company for approximately 30 years.
The University of Florida published an article on May 5, 2023, about their son, Matthew Kress, confirming the following:
Husband: David KressEmployer: MicrosoftCareer: Started in Microsoft’s mailroom in 1987.Final position: Senior Business Operations Manager of Worldwide Enterprise Marketing.Tenure: Approximately 30 years before retiring.Family: Two sons, Matthew Kress and David Kress Jr.Relationship: David and Colette met while working in Silicon Valley.

Corporate fascism comes to mind which is what the WEF multinationals and globalist agenda equates.
Perhaps his resignation was the goal.
Doesn’t this fit nicely in SD’s Specific Outcomes #’s 3 & 6 ….
Losing the CEO is a lot less problematic than losing the COO. The COO is the guying doing something. Obviously, Jensen was spending too much time in an unproductive way.
well, maybe i x thought the extracurricular time was productive… ?
( hint: i x will not say – which is not a coincidence, nor an affirmation)
I’ll wait a few weeks for their stock to rebound before I reveal the sordid S&M affair I had with Ms. Kress.
Let’s just say I hope she’s as good at mastering her new role as she was with a good leather horse whip.
(cue the Austin Powers/Quincy Jones soundtrack)
A woman moves into the CEO position ?
That will portend even worse.

Maybe Elon should buy Nvidia and tell them all to take a flying car.
Another scalp is claimed by the evil “rules based international order” cabal.
This is the same evil cabal that so ruthlessly opposes President Trump, MAGA, Christianity, Judaism, Truth, Justice and the American Way.
I pray that God would severely punish them.

They have only themselves to blame.

Omega4America mas made vigorous argument against the need for Data Centers. To this tech illiterate, his words and actions appear to be valid, and strongly influence my thoughts about AI & Data Centers, especially when I have seen little to no argument or newsworthy opposition to what he has detailed. Really wonder why Omega4America material arguments have been refused public media attention????
Because the opposition has to be presented in the terms of the Hegelian dialectic: thesis, antithesis, synthesis. Thus the AI centers move forward with no discussion about the need for human beings to have no privacy, the need for totalitarian governmental control of systems (including digital currency) and the need to take land via eminent domain leases with minimal compensation. Whose land gets overtaken next for needed housing or other public projects, like Mamdani has planned for apartments in NYC?

The question isn’t his fraternizing with The subordinates 😉 Is he working on behalf of the CCP ands allowing China to illegally get our best chips ?
Just remember, Nvidia was expressly and admittedly named after Invidia. The All-Seeing Eye; the Evil Eye; Envy, one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

I’m not one who believes in coincidences.
Someone tell Alice Huang not to take an airplane anywhere for the seeable future
They keep going after this very very influential people in hi tech. Next will be Elon Musk. and they are out for blood on Elon, they will strip him of everything he owns.
What if these people eventually say FAFO and then decide that they might be better off in RUSSIA? Can you imagine the technology that Musk can offer the Russian military? Of course if they did that they could never come back to the USA. Just a thought.
I feel sorry for his wife. It must be very embarrassing for her. In the photos, she looks like a nice, decent lady. (I just remember how Mrs. Gates was so very hurt by her husband’s philandering).
It’s a cultural thing. Blame Mao.
