The US Justice Department has initiated several investigations that involve chipmaker Nvidia, as well as tech firms Megaspeed and Supermicro, two administration officials said. One probe examines potential antitrust violations by Nvidia, while the other two focus on the activities of Megaspeed and Supermicro. The latter inquiries relate to Alice Huang, who was identified by former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang as having had a personal relationship with him before his resignation. No indication has been provided that the department intends to bring criminal charges against Nvidia or Jensen Huang at this stage. Neither Nvidia nor the Justice Department offered comments to Semafor, and Megaspeed and Supermicro have not responded to requests for comment.
