Trump says he has not spoken with Jensen Huang, backs him staying as Nvidia CEO

The substantive signal here is the absence of one: Trump's endorsement of Huang as Nvidia's CEO, paired with the admission that no conversation has taken place, suggests continuity rather than any active White House push on the company's leadership. For a chipmaker whose fortunes are tightly bound to US export policy and political access, that distinction matters — a public blessing is not the same as a working channel. Whether direct contact between the two follows, and what it covers, is the open question.
