Rep. Moolenaar speaks to CNBC on congressional investigation into Nvidia CEO Huang's affair with alleged Chinese spy

Nvidia and CEO Jensen Huang have been sued in a federal court in San Jose, California, by shareholders alleging the company misled investors by concealing Huang's affair with Alice Huang. According to the Hindustan Times - World News, the lawsuit claims the company failed to disclose the relationship and the associated national security concerns, which shareholders say could damage the company's reputation and business prospects.

MyJoyOnline Ghana reported that Nvidia announced a probe into the matter on Sunday and noted that the company's shares closed down 4.3% on Monday.

The complaint identifies Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, as the individual involved in the affair. Hindustan Times - World News reports that US authorities concluded last month that Alice Huang was an asset of Chinese intelligence, with US intelligence agencies suspecting her of working for China’s ministry of state security.

In a letter to employees, Jensen Huang acknowledged being "unfaithful" to his wife, Lori, and apologized to his family and staff, though he did not provide specific details regarding the person involved.

Donald Trump stated that the FBI is investigating the matter, though he described Huang as an "honourable man" and an "amazing guy" who is "suffering greatly." According to the Malay Mail, Trump spoke with Huang to check on his well-being and said he believes Huang had no idea the woman was a spy. Sky News also noted Trump's comments regarding the FBI investigation.
