Huang exit clouds Korea's AI ties as Nvidia shares fall

Korean media report that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is stepping down or being ousted amid a scandal involving extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy, with the Wall Street Journal reporting the board is preparing to remove him and Reuters reporting a relationship with a second employee. Yonhap says the scandal casts uncertainty over South Korea's deepening AI ties with Nvidia, and the Korea Times notes Nvidia is the second-most-held U.S. stock among Korean investors, with shares falling and a shareholder lawsuit alleging investors were misled. Korean investors are rattled, and Seoul shares opened sharply higher Tuesday on a U.S. tech rally and falling oil prices amid the scandal, though the documents do not describe a U.S. stock fall or oil surge tied to Huang's exit.
