NVIDIA's five‑year CDS widened 3.25 bps to 1.445% after the board met on
Thursday to decide CEO Jensen Huang's status, ICE Data Services showed,
approaching the intraday high from Nov. 3. The cost has more than doubled since
mid‑year but remains roughly half that of lower‑rated megaclouds SpaceX and
ORACLE. A person familiar said the board, after revelations of multiple
extramarital affairs by Huang, has been working with an external firm to
identify potential CEO replacements and is considering an interim CEO while it
searches for a permanent successor.
