NVIDIA (NVDA) shares fell 11.28% to $154.13, marking a significant decline driven by the sudden resignation of CEO Jensen Huang after 33 years. The move follows reports that Huang stepped down due to personal matters, with CFO Colette Kress named as interim CEO ahead of a permanent leadership search.

What Happened

Jensen Huang resigned as chief executive, prompting a leadership transition that has unsettled the market. Colette Kress, the company’s CFO, has been appointed interim CEO and is scheduled to host a company-wide meeting on November 18 at 9:00 AM PT. The departure has intensified scrutiny on the board’s next steps, with U.S. Speaker Johnson describing the choice of a successor as critically important. Analysts have reacted swiftly to the news; BMO Capital lowered its price target to $240 and removed the stock from its Top Pick list, while Stifel maintained a Buy rating but cut its target to $205. The leadership change has also drawn attention to the Swiss National Bank’s heavy exposure to the stock and the broader implications for tech ETFs with significant NVIDIA holdings.

What The Data Shows

The stock opened at $160.65, a 7.5% gap down from the prior close of $173.73. Trading reached a session high of $173.30 at 8:20 AM ET before sliding to a low of $148.80 at 9:30 AM ET. Volume stood at 103.1 million shares, which is 0.8 times the three-month daily average. The stock is now trading near its 16-month low, having lost 23.24% over the past four weeks. Fundamentals remain strong with a market cap of $4.08 trillion, a P/E of 22.0, and revenue growth of 83.4% over the trailing twelve months. However, the 52-week range of $164.27 to $243.37 indicates the stock has recently printed a fresh 52-week low. Insider activity has been skewed toward selling, with six sales totaling $967.6 million in the last 90 days, including recent transactions by Kress and other executives.

What To Watch

Investors will look to the November 17 earnings report and the November 18 company meeting for clarity on the strategic direction under interim leadership. The market will also monitor the progress of the permanent CEO search and any further analyst adjustments to price targets in response to the leadership transition.
