Thanks. I have my popcorn in hand but... so far it looks mostly terrible for the commerce department. Huang? I don't know.

Maybe the board knows more, and that's why they are "preparing to oust" him. Or maybe it's about the sex scandal.

I don't have money in NVDA but if I did I would certainly want him to stay at his desk until we have the actual gun.

I do have money in Nvidia. I want Huang gone. If he stays, there is a real chance the hammer about to fall on him destroys Nvidia as well.

This seems awfully handwavy. Civilians don't get to quash investigations.

The legality will depend on what we find under that handwaving, but I doubt very much we will find personal checks written to Lutnik.

I have to ask: If he hadn't slept with the woman, would you feel the same way about the whole affair? If not, why does the sex matter?

Correct. It's called corruption.

> I doubt very much we will find personal checks written to Lutnik

You don't need this to trigger undue influence issues.

> If he hadn't slept with the woman, would you feel the same way about the whole affair?

Yes. That seems to have blown open the scheme Jensen was running [1], possibly with the knowledge of the White House.

I'm flying from Silicon Valley to New York today. The bubble that has people publicly calling this a nothing burger is the exact reason Americans are furious and fed up with our tech sector's leaders.
