Pressure mounts after espionage scandal, can the chip giant survive without 'Mister Nvidia'?

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, faces scrutiny after allegations of a relationship with a Chinese spy, leading to investigations and a shareholder lawsuit. Despite this, he remains pivotal to Nvidia's success, with no clear succession plan in place. Huang's unique position raises concerns about 'key-man risk', as he is seen as irreplaceable by investors. Nvidia lacks a board chairman, increasing this risk further. While Huang holds only 3.6% of shares, he is still the largest shareholder, and investors fear his departure could harm the company. However, experts believe he is ultimately replaceable, citing Apple's experience after Steve Jobs.
