Nvidia said on Thursday that Jensen Huang has resigned as president, chief executive and director, effective immediately. Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress is serving as interim chief executive while the board seeks a permanent successor. The departure followed reports of affairs, including one with Alice Huang, a Megaspeed director whom U.S. intelligence says China's top spy agency recruited. Huang admitted in a staff email that he had cheated on his wife. Nvidia shares fell sharply, and the company has lost about $1.8tn (€1.6tn) in market value since its record close on 6 Oct.

Nvidia's board has opened an independent investigation into CEO Jensen Huang after reports that he had an affair with Alice Huang, a Singapore-based Megaspeed executive whom U.S. intelligence services link to Beijing's espionage. Nvidia shares fell more than 4 percent on Monday, 9 Nov, and kept declining on Tuesday. President Donald Trump said the FBI is investigating, and no one has been charged. Nvidia said it has no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised. The company has retained former acting U.S. Attorney Joon H. Kim to lead the inquiry.

Cristiano Ronaldo, 41, has announced his retirement from international football with Portugal, ending a 23-year international career. He made the announcement on Thursday, 5 Nov 2026, saying he would stop playing for the national team. He finished with 234 appearances and 146 goals for Portugal, and his senior debut came in 2003. The decision followed a falling out with coach Jorge Jesus and a 30-day suspension for leaving the national team camp. The announcement came before Portugal named its squad for upcoming matches.
Democrats won control of the House of Representatives and the Senate in the US midterm elections, a result that sends a message calling for a check on President Donald Trump's power. Vice President JD Vance said voter opposition to the war with Iran caused the Republican loss, and Trump said he largely agrees. The Iran conflict began after US-Israeli airstrikes in late February 2026 and has cost at least $38 billion and killed 19 Americans. Trump said he would soon decide whether to make a deal with Tehran or order new strikes, and he called Qatar's emir to discuss ending the conflict.
