Sex, Spying, Power: Ruin

Nvidia, a global chip monopoly with a 5.7 trillion euro capitalization as of October 6, has seen a significant downturn. The company's founder and executive, Jensen Huang, has been embroiled in a scandal involving infidelity, espionage, and export violations, particularly regarding shipments of Nvidia chips to China.

He is accused of knowingly allowing his mistress, Alice, to export additional chips to China from Singapore, valued at 7,500 million.
