Allegations connecting Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to a Chinese intelligence plot have impacted the company’s stock price as Chinese officials dismiss the claims as a smear campaign.

Though US President Donald Trump lent the Nvidia boss his backing, the widening scandal intensified worries over Nvidia’s leadership. In a routine news briefing Monday, a Chinese spokesperson rejected claims it used the woman as a spy. The controversy has intensified scrutiny of Mr.

Huang’s ties to Beijing and sparked mixed reactions across Asia, where he is widely popular. Allegations linking CEO to Chinese intelligence shake markets with chipmaker's shares falling more than 4 percent.

Semafor reported the story as "Nvidia shares fall amid spying allegations." PBS NewsHour reported the story as "China dismisses claims of spy plot involving Nvidia CEO Huang as a smear campaign."
