What counts as YES?
The source target date is market metadata and may differ from the actual event finish. The rules below determine the outcome.
This market will resolve to “Yes” if Jensen Huang’s departure through resignation or removal as CEO of NVIDIA is officially announced by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. The departure will be considered to be announced when Jensen Huang, NVIDIA, or their authorized representatives publicly and definitively announce that Huang has resigned or been removed, or will resign or be removed, as CEO of NVIDIA. Such an announcement will qualify regardless of when the specified person formally leaves the position; resignation includes retiring or stepping down as CEO, including to take another role at NVIDIA, and removal includes dismissal or termination by NVIDIA’s Board of Directors. Only announcements which are framed as announcing a departure through resignation or removal intended to be effective within 18 months of the date of the announcement will qualify (e.g., neither “I will leave office in 2 years,” nor “I will not be in office forever,” would qualify). Announcements of temporary leaves of absence, dated suspensions, indefinite suspensions, administrative leaves, or other temporary changes to the specified person’s duties in the specified position do not qualify. The following do not qualify as public and definitive announcements: statements that the specified person is considering or open to departing; conditional statements that the specified person will depart only if certain conditions are met; the announcement of an offer of resignation that requires acceptance and remains pending or has been refused; media reports that the specified person plans to depart; statements made in sarcasm or jest; and statements by persons other than the specified person, the relevant authority governing the specified position, or their respective authorized representatives. If the specified person holds the specified position on a predefined term with a scheduled end date, only announcements that they will depart the position prior to the scheduled end of their term qualify. If the specified person formally ceases to hold the specified position before the end of their scheduled term through such a departure without a qualifying announcement, the market will resolve to “Yes” if a qualifying resignation or removal by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. If the specified person ceases to hold the specified position by any other means, this market will resolve to “No”. The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from Jensen Huang and NVIDIA; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.

Nvidia's November 8 independent investigation creates departure risk above ordinary near-term CEO turnover. However, the board expressed confidence in Huang and said it currently had no reason to believe national-security or company secrets were compromised, while he reportedly intends to continue leading. His founder status favors retention. The announcement-based rule allows a negotiated transition to count before actual departure; findings from the investigation could materially change the outlook.
Source 1 ↗ Source 2 ↗ Source 3 ↗Nvidia's board is conducting a probe after reports that CEO Jensen Huang was a target of a foreign intelligence service, and Trump has reacted to calls for his resignation. No announcement of resignation or removal has been made, and the board said it had found no reason Huang's handling of secrets was compromised, while Huang has committed to lead Nvidia. The probe creates a real but minority risk of a forced departure by Dec 31.
