NVIDIA shareholders' lawyer responds: Trump's attitude does not determine the direction of the class action lawsuit

NVIDIA shareholders are filing a securities class action lawsuit against NVIDIA and its founder Jensen Huang, accusing them of misconduct that misled a large number of investors. This case stems from Jensen Huang's recent admission of an extramarital affair on the company's website. U.S. President Donald Trump continues to support Jensen Huang. On November 9, local time, Trump publicly backed Huang at a White House press conference, stating, "I believe him (Jensen Huang)."

In response, the attorney for the securities class action lawsuit, Laurence Rosen, stated that Trump's claim that Huang was unaware and NVIDIA's board's assertion that national security was not compromised, even if true, cannot determine the outcome of the case.

The issue in this lawsuit is whether the statements made on October 9, 2025, were misleading, and existing facts support this conclusion. Currently, the lawsuit is only against NVIDIA and Jensen Huang. Rosen indicated that it has not yet been determined whether other defendants, including members of the NVIDIA board, will be added.
