Jensen Huang Just Resigned From Nvidia. A Study of 187 Forced CEO Exits Shows What Could Happen Next
247wallst.com reports that Jensen Huang, 63, resigned as Nvidia's president, chief executive and director on Nov. 12, 2026 — the morning after the Wall Street Journal reported the board was preparing to oust him, and a week after he admitted an affair with a woman US officials suspect of spying for China — leaving CFO Colette Kress as interim chief executive while the stock slid 4.3% and then fell further. The article leans on a 2021 study of 187 forced CEO exits whose finding that boards replacing market-beating CEOs preside over a median 13-point market lag over three years, and it walks through a hypothetical couple's $1.3 million Nvidia stake to weigh the tax and planning costs of trimming versus holding.
