Former Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang has been called to testify before the Senate Banking Committee amid reports of extramarital affairs, including one with a woman suspected of ties to Chinese intelligence, days after abruptly stepping down. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is also slated to appear as Washington scrutinizes export curbs on advanced AI chips to China. Nvidia lost roughly $550 billion in market value over five days as the scandal widened; CFO Colette Kress was named interim CEO while the board seeks a permanent successor. The company says it has no evidence national security or corporate secrets were compromised, as the Justice Department reviews the matter and House committees pursue closed-door testimony.
