Technology-stock-driven rally came to a sudden halt as traders confronted a leadership crisis at Nvidia Corp. that risks reverberating across the global artificial intelligence supply chain.
Nvidia dropped 7% in premarket trading, with the firm’s board discussing Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang’s future after reports of multiple extramarital affairs, including one with a woman suspected of spying for China. Nasdaq 100 contracts fell 0.9%, threatening to trim the index’s best weekly gain since May.
