The Chinese internet is trying to figure out who lost the most in the fallout of Jensen Huang's affair
From his wife to retail investors, Chinese internet users are counting the costs of Jensen Huang's personal crisis.
Chinese social media users are debating the fallout from Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's personal crisis. Some rallied around his wife, Lori, while others calculated the financial cost to investors. Huang's stock plunged nearly 9% on Monday before recovering to about 4% lower at $178.67. Business Insider estimated the slide temporarily cost Huang's holdings about $13 billion, leaving them worth around $138 billion.
Users on Weibo, China's version of X, debated both the personal and financial consequences of the affair. One user calculated that Huang's wife could receive half of his fortune under California's community property laws. Another pointed out that the loss of Huang's "devoted-husband image" could deeply affect the company's reputation.
Some users warned that personal matters can have dire consequences for capital markets, emphasizing that a private scandal can leave entire companies and investors in financial peril.
