Jensen Huang Resigns as Nvidia CEO: Colette Kress Interim, Earnings Tuesday, National Security Probe Ongoing

Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia's CEO effective immediately on Wednesday, one day after the New York Times reported a second extramarital affair — with a direct report inside the company — following earlier reports of an affair with an executive US intelligence believes is a Chinese operative. CFO Colette Kress is now interim CEO; Q3 earnings with $108B guidance are still on for Tuesday, November 17. Also: a coalition of nonprofits filed suit in San Francisco seeking a court order to halt frontier AI development at OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and SpaceX — the first time all five labs have been named in one action. And Google shipped Gemini 4 Hydrogen, the Flash-tier successor, as its fifth distinct AI release in four days.
