According to an analysis released by Unemployment Labs on November 12, 2026, researchers conducted forensic-level tracing of publicly available model weights and found that six recently released AI models from DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, MiniMax, and Ant Group contain digital fingerprints matching the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture.The study indicates that these models used high-end hardware subject to U.S. export controls during the initialization phase. Although this fingerprinting technology cannot track the specific location or acquisition method of the chips, nor can it prove whether export rules have been violated, the technical evidence suggests that these leading Chinese AI developers have begun utilizing the Blackwell architecture for model training. Researchers ruled out the possibility of other hardware and noted that this analytical method has been validated against known model training hardware.

The official website of NVIDIA has updated the management profile page, with interim CEO Colette Kress listed first, while Jensen Huang is placed in the "Founder" section.Jensen Huang's personal profile page has also been updated, mentioning that he founded NVIDIA in 1993 and previously served as the president and CEO of NVIDIA, as well as a board member.

Analyst Jukan posted on platform X, stating that Nvidia chips are currently still in short supply, but to maintain the premium for chip scarcity, the company needs to continue supporting emerging cloud service providers (Neocloud). If the new CEO adopts a more cautious attitude towards this business model, it may lead to pressure on GPU spot prices, a decline in cloud service providers' profit margins, and prompt them to turn to alternatives such as AMD or Google TPU, thereby weakening Nvidia's market dominance and supply chain control.Jukan stated that Jensen Huang has been working hard to maintain Nvidia's growth flywheel, which not only helps to expand chip demand but also ensures the computing power utilization of emerging cloud service providers. Huang originally hoped to gradually let go once the emerging cloud service providers could independently order the next generation of GPUs, but it is currently uncertain whether the successor CEO is willing to wait.

The semiconductor research institution SemiAnalysis published a report regarding Jensen Huang's resignation, noting that although the board has appointed Colette Kress as interim CEO, they prefer that the formal CEO does not have a financial background, so they are still selecting a permanent CEO.Internal technical direction candidates include Ian Buck and Jonah Alben. Ian Buck founded CUDA during his PhD at Stanford and joined NVIDIA in 2004, responsible for the data center business; Jonah Alben joined in 1997 and is currently the Senior Vice President of GPU Engineering. Executives have stated, "Ian would rather die than take over Jensen's position," and "no one would really want that job." The report indicates that both are outstanding, but may not be able to exert the same supply chain management control as Jensen Huang.

According to Bloomberg, Nvidia is searching for a formal successor to CEO Jensen Huang. Following multiple revelations of Huang's extramarital affairs, the company has commissioned an external agency to identify potential candidates. Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress has taken over as interim CEO; she is the most well-known executive among investors after Huang. Bloomberg states that the board typically considers having the CFO take over to stabilize the situation, but financial executives are often viewed as transitional candidates in tech companies.Other potential candidates listed by Bloomberg include: Ian Buck, who is responsible for data center products and AI chips and invented the CUDA software framework; Rene Haas, who previously worked at Nvidia and now leads chip design company Arm; Lisa Su, who leads AMD and has seen AMD's stock price increase nearly 170 times during her tenure; and Johny Srouji, who leads Apple's in-house chip project.The list also includes Matt Garman, head of Amazon Web Services (AWS); Sanjay Mehrotra, chairman and CEO of Micron Technology, who has seen Micron's stock price increase over 2700% during his tenure; and Amin Vahdat, who is responsible for Google's TPU project. Bloomberg states that finding a suitable successor for this globally highest-valued chip manufacturer is not easy.

Renowned investor Duan Yongping stated that Jensen Huang's departure may be the final decision made by NVIDIA's board of directors. In the short term, it will not affect NVIDIA's business, but whether it can maintain its competitive advantage in the coming years depends on finding a suitable successor CEO. Jensen Huang is diligent and has a forward-looking perspective on the development of the AI industry, making it challenging to find a successor with these qualities.Duan Yongping mentioned that NVIDIA's business model heavily relies on an excellent management team. If the capabilities and execution of the management team cannot be maintained, the company's competitiveness in the next 3 to 5 years may be impacted. However, the AI industry is still in its early stages, and it is expected to maintain good growth momentum over the next decade. Regarding the possibility of Jensen Huang returning in the future, Duan Yongping stated that if the reasons for his departure still exist, it is highly likely that Jensen Huang will not return as CEO. However, NVIDIA may also consider inviting him to serve in advisory roles or similar positions, allowing him to continue exerting influence in a shadow CEO capacity, but without formal signing responsibilities. Relevant arrangements may not have clear conclusions before the end of the hearing, and the final outcome may still require some time to wait.

According to The New York Times, two insiders revealed that before Jensen Huang stepped down as CEO of NVIDIA NVDA.O, President Trump called Jensen Huang on Tuesday, urging him to continue fighting to keep his position.This call is the latest example of Trump's support for Jensen Huang. Jensen Huang has previously become a prominent ally in Trump's camp and is also a highly influential advisor to Trump in the field of artificial intelligence.

Reuters reported on November 12, citing three informed sources, that Chinese artificial intelligence companies are attempting to rent Nvidia chip computing power from overseas data centers, concerned that the controversy surrounding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang may prompt Washington to tighten restrictions on the remote use of advanced processors. The United States has restricted the export of Nvidia's most advanced artificial intelligence chips to China, and Chinese companies can currently use such processors remotely by renting computing power from overseas data centers. A large Chinese cloud service provider has internally discussed whether to secure overseas Nvidia chip capacity, and some companies have contacted data center operators to negotiate reservations. The informed sources declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter and did not specify the cloud service provider.Two informed sources stated that smaller artificial intelligence labs are also considering similar arrangements, including reaching out to major computing power rental service providers in Southeast Asia. These companies are concerned that the controversy surrounding Jensen Huang may provide political momentum for the U.S. Remote Access Security Act (RASA). This bill aims to authorize the U.S. Department of Commerce to regulate remote and cloud access to restricted technologies. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the bill in January with a vote of 369 in favor and 22 against, and it is currently awaiting Senate review. Reuters stated that Nvidia's advanced processors are used to train and run the large models behind generative artificial intelligence products like chatbots, and restricting overseas cloud access will make it more difficult for Chinese developers to obtain high-end computing power without directly importing chips.Jensen Huang stated on Sunday that he was unfaithful to his wife. The New York Times reported that the individual involved is Alice Huang, a former executive of Singapore cloud computing company Megaspeed, who U.S. authorities have identified as a Chinese intelligence operative. Reuters stated it was unable to independently verify the allegation, and the Chinese side has denied it. Two informed sources said that Alice Huang has business dealings and investment relationships with Chinese tech companies such as Tencent and Alibaba, which did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Business filings in Singapore reviewed by Reuters show that Alibaba subsidiary Apex Enterprise Solutions had provided financing to Malaysian company Speedmatrix, which is associated with Megaspeed. Megaspeed denied illegally transshipping Nvidia chips subject to U.S. export controls to China. Two other informed sources stated that traders and intermediaries have begun hoarding restricted Nvidia artificial intelligence chips in China's gray market, with buyers concerned that the controversy may prompt the U.S. to take broader action against the smuggling of advanced chips and artificial intelligence servers.

The latest 13F filing for the third quarter of 2026 submitted by the quantitative hedge fund Renaissance Technologies, founded by mathematician Jim Simons, shows that the institution has significantly adjusted its U.S. stock holdings, nearly completely liquidating its positions in Nvidia, Meta, Apple, and Amazon, with Nvidia's holdings decreasing by 99.7% from a previous market value of approximately $1.42 billion.

The institution also completely exited its positions in Blackstone, the S&P 500 ETF, Mellanox Technologies, and Danaher, among others.

According to Reuters, citing two informed sources, the former CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, has been reported to have an intimate relationship with another company employee. This follows previous reports of two extramarital affairs involving Huang. Reuters stated that the identity of the latest employee involved has not been disclosed for privacy reasons, and they have not been able to contact the individual for comment.Previously, Huang was reported to have had extramarital affairs with a woman, Alice Huang, who is suspected by U.S. intelligence agencies of engaging in espionage activities for China, as well as with Kimberly Powell, the vice president of Nvidia's medical business, and he resigned from his position as CEO on Thursday local time.

According to The Information, the interim CEO of Nvidia is not the leader of the company's major decisions and is not responsible for setting the agenda for significant company decisions.Additionally, according to data from the Gate platform, Nvidia's intraday decline has narrowed to within 4%.

U.S. Democratic Senator Reid stated that Congress needs to assess whether Nvidia is "too big to fail" and what impact this may have on the banking system.

According to the American financial media Semafor, Nvidia (NVDA.O) is under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice for antitrust issues.

Financial market research firm Vanda stated that retail investors net bought $111 million worth of Nvidia (NVDA.O) stock within the first half hour after the market opened, setting a record for the largest net buy by retail investors during the opening phase of the stock.

According to market news, Jensen Huang will no longer hold any position at NVIDIA in the future.

On August 21 of this year, U.S. President Trump submitted documents declaring the sale of up to 1 million dollars worth of Nvidia (NVDA) stock.Since the date of this declaration, Nvidia's stock price has fallen by a total of 29%, currently reported at 160.64 dollars.

According to a report by Reuters, an internal memo shows that NVIDIA's interim CEO Colette Kress stated that the company will hold an all-staff meeting at 1 AM on November 19 (UTC+8).Previously, it was announced that NVIDIA will release its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2027 on November 17 and hold an earnings conference call, with arrangements remaining unchanged.
