Resigning Just Cost Jensen Huang $108 Million in Nvidia Stock Awards
A 24/7 Wall St. article by Omor Ibne Ehsan reports that NVIDIA's board accepted Jensen Huang's resignation as president, CEO, and director on 11 November 2026, naming CFO Colette Kress interim CEO and Harvey C. Jones its first chair, and that NVIDIA's pay structure means he left with no severance or golden parachute. Citing Bloomberg, the piece says Huang walked away from roughly $108 million in unvested awards amid reporting on a suspected Chinese intelligence effort, which China denies and over which lawmakers want him to testify; Ehsan forecasts customers may slow orders until a permanent CEO is named and that the 17 November earnings will test the case.
