TREE NEWS update: Nvidia shares fell as much as 10% in premarket trading Thursday after Jensen Huang resigned, dragging down memory and optical communications stocks. Elon Musk and other Silicon Valley figures publicly backed Huang, saying he should not be dismissed before an investigation concludes, while Musk said it would be an honor to hire him. The selloff came as US equity futures slipped and oil extended gains.
Nvidia Shares Plunge Premarket After Jensen Huang Resigns
The market's reaction is less about Huang personally than about the governance vacuum his exit creates at a company whose valuation rests heavily on leadership continuity. The spillover into memory and optical names shows how tightly the AI supply chain trades as a single narrative, so a leadership shock at the center transmits outward fast. Public backing from Musk and others signals the fight over his departure is not settled, and whether that support translates into any formal reversal is the open question worth watching.
