Wild origin story: $NVDA started in a Denny's booth. Three engineers drinking coffee for hours, sketching out what would become a trillion-dollar company.

33 years later, Jensen Huang is stepping down as the only CEO Nvidia has ever known.

Think about that timeline. One leader, one vision, through dot-com crash, financial crisis, crypto winters, AI boom. From graphics cards to powering the entire AI revolution.

Most tech companies cycle through CEOs every 5-7 years. Nvidia had one guy the whole ride. That kind of continuity is rare in any industry, almost unheard of in tech.

Now the question everyone's asking: can anyone actually fill those leather jacket shoes? The succession risk is real when a founder CEO has been the face and brain of a company for three decades.

Market will be watching this transition closely.
