US agencies and Nvidia probe CEO Jensen Huang over alleged spy link

U.S. intelligence agencies and Nvidia's board of directors have launched investigations into Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang following allegations that an extramarital affair targeted him in a foreign espionage operation. Authorities suspect Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, of connections to Chinese intelligence aimed at securing sensitive corporate or national security data.

Huang admitted to infidelity in a staff memo without naming the partner. U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the FBI is examining the case, noting that Huang expressed shock and denied knowing about any espionage ties. Nvidia announced that initial internal audits found no evidence of compromised corporate or government secrets. Nevertheless, news of the inquiries led to a decline in Nvidia's stock price.
