Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns; shares close 4.3% lower
Why it matters: Nvidia is the AI boom's supplier, financier and chief voice in Washington. Whoever succeeds Huang decides whether it keeps backstopping customers and deals, and with it how cheaply the AI build-out can be funded.

Inside Jensen Huang's fall: a spy scandal and a 'feudal' Nvidia
Why it matters: This is a governance story as much as a markets one: one man held Nvidia's deals, its Washington ties and its culture. Every board of a founder-led giant will now be asked what checks it really has.

Nvidia's CEO probe shows how much markets lean on one man
Why it matters: Index funds tie millions of savers to Nvidia, and AI labs depend on Huang for scarce chips and funding. When one founder's private life can move both, the AI boom's single point of failure is a person, not a chip.

Want to short the AI boom? Futures on chip rental prices are coming
Why it matters: A trusted price for compute lets AI buyers hedge their biggest cost and gives sceptics a clean way to bet against the boom.

CoreWeave shows the AI trade's weak spot: the borrowers
Why it matters: Higher-for-longer rates act like a tax on anyone in AI who isn't a cash-rich giant. Watch the borrowers: they crack first if the boom cools.

Lex: why OpenAI’s fuzzy revenue numbers matter for everyone
