I am not a lawyer but statements from Nvidia from a week ago were clearly false. When this started to come to light, there were official press statements which we now know were known to be false: https://abcnews.com/US/nvidia-responds-report-ceo-allegedly-targeted-chinese-spy/story?id=137704250

In a statement to ABC News, a Nvidia spokesperson said Jensen Huang “talks with thousands of customer executives every year.”

“Jensen’s interactions with Ms. Huang are not unusual or unexpected,” the statement read. “Meetings with customers are part of a CEO’s job.”

At the very least, anyone who bought shares of Nvidia stock after this statement was made and now was deceived by the company's statements, and is probably going to be part of a class action case.

    There's no mention of Huang being put on furlough, if not just outright sacked, and had all his company computer access/accounts revoked pending an investigation.

    Maybe the CEO of Nvidia is the leather jacket, Jensen is a mere puppet controlled by it.

    What does an internal investigation actually mean and how long does it take?

    The way i see it, there are really only two possible outcomes, either he did divulge secrets to a spy, and that'll be a big problem for him, or he didn't divulge any secrets but still shows he got played by a spy. Either way, he'll probably step down as CEO, but the big issue is there's no clear line of succession in the org, so it's all a bit messy.

    I don't understand, sue NVIDIA for what? Turning a blind eye to smuggling made NVIDIA shareholders money.
