NVIDIA climbed nearly 8.8% on the day even as the market absorbed news of a board investigation and the departure of Jensen Huang, with buyers stepping in where sellers had every reason to press.
The press release that landed before the open addressed both the board investigation and commentary on AI infrastructure spending, and the AI infrastructure piece appears to have anchored investor attention, with the stock climbing steadily through the first half of the session before consolidating in a relatively tight range.

The move pulled along several names in NVIDIA's orbit: CoreWeave, a partner whose relationship is documented in its SEC 10-Q filing, Coherent, a supplier per NVIDIA's SEC 10-K, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, a customer, all gained on the day. Broad strength across partners, suppliers, and customers alike points to a sector-wide read.
Beyond the four names tracked here, at least 10 additional related companies also moved on the day. What investors will be watching in the sessions ahead is whether the board investigation develops further details and how that sits alongside the AI spending narrative that appeared to drive today's bid.
