Blackrock. The guy had the only real asset in this AI bubble.

By whom?

Too bad it doesn't work for all CEOs, like Nazi Musk.

Destroying? Nvidia will be fine. Their stock might go down, but if a single executive being ousted craters your stock price then it was probably overvalued in the first place. People are going to keep buying Nvidia chips.

Just for the sake of argument, let's pretend that Nvidia somehow ceases to exist (I don't see how that could happen in the near term though). Someone is going to step in to buy the company and continue designing chips. The names on the letterhead might change but real assets of a company this valuable are not going anywhere — someone is going to buy the IP and employ the people who design it.

put all the letters in a box and then start shaking them too

I’m just here for the drama, curious how it turns out in the end.

That is a hostile takeover if I ever see one.

Wheper or not wip

Thomeone may be feeding the fire, but nobody forthed him to cheat on hith wife. Whether or not with a Chinethe operative.

This is exactly China's plan. As much as capitalists hate communism they love profit more. It's genius tbh.

Good, fuck Jensen Huang.

Good news, someone already did. Two someones, in fact.

This is a hit job by neoconservatives & liberal internationalists. If he’d kept it in his pants, then they would have just found some other way to take him out.

Let's hope a generic CEO gets put in place then. Nvidia's downfall can't come fast enough

In what sense is he a traitor? I think you’re approaching the situation from the wrong angle. What he is is a billionaire butting heads with other billionaires, and none of them are patriots.

Maybe he should have kept his dick in his pants?

It is doing it through state apparatus, for example through “anonymous” CIA sources baselessly accusing Alice of espionage and exposing their affair. And they’re doing it behind Trump’s back, because Trump & Jensen have had a chummy relationship.

lobbying for allowing sales to China as well as closing his eyes while different firms were smuggling GPUs

most of the epstein class wants to choke off china like they're doing to cuba atm and huang is very inconvenient to the rn because of this -- it's not an accident that he suddenly can't be in the room w trump and jinping because he's been summoned to testify.

I think this is a fight between two factions of big capital, one that wants to constrain China and another that wants to continue profiting from China.

Do you think that fight is being expressed in this NVIDIA-internal hullabaloo about investigating and potentially Huang? I feel like the capital that wants to constrain China wouldn't be invested in NVIDIA and would do it through the state apparatus.

I think the smuggling and the general desire to continue exporting to China is the key here, and that Alice Huang being a spy is bullshit. I think she’s a chip smuggler, something that the Chinese state has been trying to curtail, because it wants to develop its own domestic chip industry that’s no longer depended on Western chip manufacturers. That’s why millions of NVIDIA chips are currently quarantined at Hong Kong ports.

I think this is a fight between two factions of big capital, one that wants to constrain China and another that wants to continue profiting from China.

Jensen literally founded the company, and helped design the original GPU. He made some incredibly critical long-term decisions, like pushing CUDA and some architectural features, even when they wouldn’t pay out for years.

Many report directly to him.

…By all accounts, he is rather critical for Nvidia. I don’t mean to glaze him, but TBH some generic CEO would run Nvidia to the ground in no time.

For sleeping with an executive that reports directly to him. Comments I’d take with a grain of salt implied she might have attained her position by sleeping with Jensen, and that very much violates company policy.

You aren’t wrong though. It’d be stupid to fire him over the smuggling thing, as long as the DOJ isn’t pressing charges either.

Good, fuck Jensen Huang. I hope his wife files for divorce next

Can't come soon enough this traitor must go.

What's the angle here? He made a ton of money for his shareholders. Including by lobbying for allowing sales to China as well as closing his eyes while different firms were smuggling GPUs. Why would the board get rid of him? This whole thing looks really unusual.
