I'm guessing this is the most expensive affair in history?

Meh, not really. NVidia stock is presumably rebounding as we speak -- unless they pick someone political or unhinged to take over, this will just be a blip.

And I doubt it'll cost him much. What could you pay the founder of the second most valuable company on the planet who already holds $150B in equity? It'd be as absurd as paying Donald Trump.

-12% in premarket. Definitely not rebounding. It has lost 35% in the last month at the moment. That’s not trivial.

The rest of the market isn’t looking very solid either.

I am not sure if you and I are looking at the same chart. Down 12% Pre Market.

Not in premarket so far, 12% down sing yesterday.

Also why would it do better? Overall Huang seems to be a highly competent CEO. Replacing him with someone seems risky (especially if the board is influenced by Trump & co.). Especially given that Nvidia never had any other CEO.

Probably in dollars, but Anthony and Cleopatra cost themselves the two greatest empires in the known world.

At the time, Egypt was no longer a great empire, but a vassal state of Rome.
