TREE NEWS update: Altimeter Capital CEO Brad Gerstner published a letter to Nvidia’s board on X, co-signed by Atreides Management’s Gavin Baker, urging a slow and deliberate CEO succession process that keeps open the possibility of Jensen Huang returning. The two firms disclosed combined Nvidia holdings of about $2.13 billion as of June 30. The letter says interim CEO Colette Kress is capable but does not call for Huang’s immediate reinstatement.
Altimeter, Atreides urge Nvidia board to keep Jensen Huang return option open
Public shareholder pressure on a board over CEO succession is unusual at this scale, and the disclosed combined stake gives the letter weight beyond commentary. The framing is notable: it endorses the interim CEO while explicitly preserving a return path for Huang, which signals concern about process rather than performance. For Nvidia's institutional holders, the question is whether this stays an isolated letter or becomes a broader governance debate. Watch whether other large holders publicly align, and how the board characterizes its succession timeline.
