Nvidia Rejects Spy Allegations

It's Benzinga, bringing Wall Street to Main Street. NVIDIA pushed back Thursday on a New York Times report that U.S. intelligence agencies surveilled a woman close to CEO Jensen Huang over concerns she could be a Chinese intelligence asset, according to CNBC. The report identified Alice Huang, who is linked to Singapore-based cloud company Megaspeed, as a potential spy helping China obtain information from NVIDIA. Intelligence officials also worried about Jensen Huang's access to President Trump. An NVIDIA spokesperson said Megaspeed is a regional cloud customer and that Jensen Huang routinely interacts with thousands of customers annually. The company added that customers do not have access to NVIDIA trade secrets or national security information. NVIDIA said allegations that Megaspeed evaded U.S. export controls were investigated and debunked last year. The company also indicated that the U.S. government had not notified it of any concerns about Alice Huang. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
