Nvidia's succession scramble, a widening spy probe, and everyone's pick for CEO
THE AFTERMATH: Jensen Huang's resignation this morning ends Nvidia's 33-year founder era, but it doesn't end the story.

CFO Colette Kress takes over as interim CEO after Huang's 33-year reign comes to an end

It comes after reports that Huang had an extramarital affair with a woman suspected of being a Chinese spy, followed by a more recent revelation of a second affair with Nvidia's VP of health care, Kimberly Powell. Colette Kress, the company's current executive vice president and chief financial officer, will take over as interim CEO.
