Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called for a major overhaul of Nvidia's leadership following CEO Jensen Huang's resignation, saying the board should recruit a chief executive from outside the company. He questioned whether Nvidia's culture encouraged illicit chip sales to inflate revenue and said other executives should be scrutinized over compliance with export controls. Huang stepped down after reports tied him to Alice Huang, a Megaspeed executive suspected of espionage and chip diversion to China; CFO Colette Kress is now interim CEO.
