    Musk said he would hire an unemployed Jensen so I think there will be some top job lined up for him if he wants to.

    I think it won't be more than a week until we find out what his new position will be.

    All this crap about "cant trust the ceo" will disappear completely. Nobody actually cares about his affair except the media and maybe Nvidia. Even Trump knew about this for a long time. He didn't care either.

    And so far the US intelligence agencies has not provided evidence for this "spy" thing they keep saying.

    This world has some bad people at the top so this is a big nothing burger for them. The epstein crew and all the associates.

    I think the reason he quit or was forced to resign was that he was going to have to answer some questions in the internal investigation and either plead the 5th or implicate himself. If he resigns the investigation goes nowhere, i.e. goes away. I believe he might be back to run Nvidia in a few years after this has blown over. He basically has to leave or the company will dig shit up during due diligence.

    Who’s to say the “spy” story isn’t to cover for how China’s been able to get so much of Nvidias hardware since sanctioned?

    Look over here, not over there.

    If everything goes well, Jensen will get a cushie parachute from all those he helped enrich. Behind curtain, he’ll be praised with compassionate eyes for having “done his part.”

    Dumb is right. Dude was literally on top of the world in charge of one of the world's most important companies and now he's disgraced because he couldn't keep it in his pants. Pretty sad, and stupid.

    But that's also the most ridiculous reason for a CEO to be displaced. Not on performance, not on treatment of subordinate, no, it's what he did in his persona life that has no effect on the company.

    But his public persona IS part of his job. A CEO in today's world isn't paid just to run a company. They are also paid to SELL the company stock. He let his personal life become public which hurt the company enough too warrant his removal.
