Jensen Huang is out! Have Republican establishment figures and Democrats reached an understanding? Trump’s allies in the crypto world should be on alert too!
Jensen Huang is really gone! On November 12, Nvidia announced that he had resigned as CEO, president, and board member, with CFO Colette Kress serving as interim CEO. The founder who built an AI empire from the ground up has now completely stepped away from the company’s operations and board. Many are reminded of Steve Jobs in 1985, but this turmoil involves personal matters, national security, and political infighting, making it more complex.
I. Whose interests has Jensen Huang’s AI strategy touched?
From a business perspective, there may be plenty of forces looking to weaken his influence.
Jensen Huang has long championed open-source and open-weight models, arguing that an open ecosystem can expand demand for AI applications, chips, and computing power. But OpenAI and Anthropic rely more heavily on API fees charged per token, as well as business and individual subscriptions, to build their business models.
More intriguingly, Anthropic had just begun its IPO roadshow on November 10, and Jensen Huang was out shortly afterward.
II. The clash over political strategy is just as clear.
Jensen Huang has consistently opposed a complete cutoff of chip exports to China, putting him at odds with hawks in both parties who favor strict restrictions. On AI development, he leans toward accelerating innovation and embracing an open ecosystem; Bill Gates, Anthropic’s leadership, and others place greater emphasis on safety risks and regulation.
Federal Reserve Governor Michael Barr also warned on November 12 that AI could worsen job displacement and income inequality.
Open or closed, accelerate or restrain—the stakes are enormous, involving both financial interests and control over policymaking.
III. Trump’s crypto interests?
What worries me most next is the network of interests linking Trump to the crypto industry. Whether it involves politically connected companies, token projects, or capital deals, it could face more rigorous congressional scrutiny, regulatory questioning, and conflict-of-interest investigations. Don’t wait until it happens to realize what’s going on.
As for Nvidia stock, the sudden management change will add a valuation discount and long-term uncertainty, but signed orders, GPU demand, and customer relationships won’t disappear overnight. A technical rebound after a sharp price drop is possible, but being oversold doesn’t mean the stock has bottomed.
Jensen Huang’s departure may only be the beginning. The real variable we investors need to keep watching is the way political and financial forces redraw the boundaries of power!
