Multiple Wall Street analysts and investors have warned that if Jensen Huang were forced to leave Nvidia, the company's stock price could take a major hit. Those involved expect that under such a scenario, Nvidia's shares would fall 20% in the short term. Given that Jensen Huang is the company's only founding CEO, occupies an absolutely central position within its management structure, and currently has 70 employees reporting directly to him, the actual decline could be even steeper. At that point, the market's concerns would extend beyond the selection of a CEO successor to whether the company's decision-making mechanisms, business relationships, and management system could transition smoothly.
