Nvidia heads for $400 bil. 2-day wipeout as CEO affair fallout deepens

Nvidia's stock continued its downward spiral on Tuesday, with the chip manufacturer facing a potential $400 billion market value loss over two sessions. The decline was fueled by mounting concerns over the fallout from CEO Jensen Huang's alleged affair with Alice Huang, a Chinese businesswoman suspected of spying for Beijing. The CEO's relationship with Alice Huang reportedly helped facilitate shipments of up to $7.5 billion in Nvidia chips to Chinese firms, according to The Information's report on Tuesday.

The allegations have heightened scrutiny of Nvidia's governance, export-control compliance, and dependence on Huang's leadership, adding to investor unease about the potential returns from massive investments in AI infrastructure. Following a 4.3% drop on Monday, which saw Nvidia lose $192.08 billion in market value, Tuesday's decline added another estimated $221 billion at risk if losses persist.

Investors are now questioning whether this downturn is company-specific or if it could trigger broader restrictions and disruptions across the AI infrastructure sector.
