  "summary": "Nvidia's board of directors is reportedly preparing to oust co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang. According to DW News, the potential removal follows reports of an affair with a suspected Chinese spy. CBS News reported that Huang admitted to an affair with a suspected Chinese spy, while DW English (Top Stories) stated Nvidia is investigating whether Huang was targeted by a foreign intelligence effort following reports of an affair with a woman US intelligence reportedly identified as a Chinese intelligence asset.\n\nThe New York Times reported Wednesday that Huang also had an affair with an Nvidia executive who reported to him. Ajel English noted that Huang may be subpoenaed by Congress amid a probe into his alleged ties to a suspected Chinese spy and reports of a second workplace affair.\n\nThe news caused Nvidia's shares to fall about 8% in after-hours trading, according to DW English (Top Stories). A reporter for Bloomberg reported on X that the board is working with an outside firm to identify potential successors and is considering an interim CEO during a search for a permanent replacement.",
