Nvidia board hires ex-SDNY chief Joon Kim of Wachtell Lipton to lead Jensen Huang probe

Nvidia's independent directors retained Joon H. Kim, the former acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, and his firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate whether CEO Jensen Huang was targeted by a foreign intelligence effort after he admitted an affair with Alice Huang, a Megaspeed executive U.S. officials link to Chinese intelligence. Kim, who co-led the probe that led to Andrew Cuomo's resignation, joined Wachtell in October. Nvidia shares fell 6% Tuesday after a 4% drop Monday.
