   Reports of Jensen Huang departure fuel AI chip alternative coverage

   Multiple financial outlets are publishing analysis on semiconductor stocks to buy as alternatives to Nvidia, citing a "Huang scandal" or sudden departure of CEO Jensen Huang. Seeking Alpha features an article titled "3 Stocks I'm Buying As The Huang Scandal Unfolds" referencing the SMH ETF. Yahoo Finance, Investing.com, and CNBC TV18 run parallel stories on retail investors watching Nvidia alternatives and AI infrastructure buildout winners. Business Insider carries an InvestorPlace piece stating Huang's sudden departure has left investors questioning Nvidia's trajectory. No official Nvidia announcement or SEC filing confirming Huang's exit appears in the provided sources.

   Why it matters

   Jensen Huang has led Nvidia since its 1993 founding and is closely identified with its AI dominance. Unverified reports of his departure would represent a seismic leadership shift for the world's most valuable chip company and the broader AI hardware ecosystem. The simultaneous appearance of multiple "alternative stock" articles suggests coordinated coverage of a developing narrative, but the absence of primary confirmation from Nvidia, regulatory filings, or major newswires leaves the core claim unsubstantiated.
