AI summary

Summary of article:

Yale Professor Mukund believes that Huang Renxun is facing scams and AI obstacles. If he retires at this time, he can avoid the pressure of later legal, regulatory and market fluctuations.

Last weekend news broke that the CEO of Nvidia (also known as Nvidia)Jen-Hsun Huang A case of extramarital affair with a suspected female spy came to light. Huida’s stock price fell on Monday (9th), and its market value decreased by US$350 billion. Huang Renxun’s departure sparked heated discussions in the market.Yale Well-known university professor Mukund believes that Huang Renxun can now considerretire Good time.

Yale School of Management professor Gautam Mukund said: “Now may be a good time for Huang Jen-hsun to consider retiring,” MarketWatch reported. One reason, he said, is that if Huang Jen-hsun remains Huida’s CEO, he may have to spend thousands of hours over the next few years discussing with lawyers how to clean up the mess caused by the case.

The second reason is that the artificial intelligence (AI) business will face strong headwinds in the next few years. HUIDA has generally avoided this in the past, but it may be inevitable in the future. Mukund pointed out that Huida’s future success or failure depends on the prospects of “AI trading”, and even more depends on whether Huang Renxun can avoid legal and regulatory scrutiny caused by extramarital affairs.

Mukund said in an interview that if AI truly realizes its huge potential, Huida stock “will be a good bet on the AI ​​market in the next few years.” However, if AI trading is now in a bubble and is about to burst (or begin to deflate), then Huida stock will definitely suffer huge losses and it has nothing to do with Huang Renxun’s affair scandal.

The Yale professor emphasized that the above assessment was not a judgment on Huang Renxun’s performance in his leadership of Huida (which he considered “excellent”), and stressed that “Huang Renxun’s many valuable contributions to Huida should not be underestimated” just because the scandal broke. He believes that after Huang Renxun leaves, even if Huida can survive, its market value will be much lower than today.

This suggests that the golden days of HUIDA’s share price may have passed. He pointed out that Huida’s market value fell by US$350 billion on Monday, which was more than the combined market value of all but 28 listed US companies; Moreover, before this, Huida’s market value had declined by approximately US$1.3 trillion since the beginning of October.

Mukund emphasized that he was not saying Huang should retire because he was disabled, but because he was already over 60 and “probably wanted to enjoy life more, but no matter what happens in the next two years, it won’t be easy.”
