Prominent Nvidia bull Dan Ives has ruled out a return to the company for Jensen Huang, even as its former CEO reportedly considers a comeback with support from leading Silicon Valley figures.
“Despite pressure from major shareholders we see no chance Jensen comes back to Nvidia as CEO,” Ives told Newsweek in an email Sunday. “The black eye moment for Jensen is impossible to come back from and this is the reality in my view.”The Financial Times reported Sunday that Huang has discussed returning with confidantes, citing multiple people familiar with the matter. One ally told the newspaper that supporters were organizing a “war room” of technology executives to lobby Nvidia’s board and seek White House backing.
