周四,芯片公司英伟达(Nvidia Corp.)董事会开会决定首席执行官黄仁勋的去留之际,保护该公司债券免于违约的成本上升。
The cost of protecting Nvidia Corp.’s debt against default rose Thursday as the chip company’s board met to decide the fate of Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang.
据ICE数据服务公司,为英伟达债券提供五年期违约保护的价格最多上涨3.25个基点,至每年1.445个百分点,略低于11月3日创下的盘中高点。尽管成本自年中以来已上涨两倍多,但该互换合约的水平仅为评级较低的超大规模企业SpaceX和甲骨文公司(Oracle Corp.)的大约一半。
The price of protecting Nvidia’s debt against default for five years increased as much as 3.25 basis points to 1.445 percentage point a year, according to ICE Data Services, just short of the intraday high set Nov. 3. While costs have more than tripled since mid-year, the swaps are only about half the level for lower-rated hyperscalers SpaceX and Oracle Corp.
一位知情人士称,在有关黄仁勋多起婚外情的报道出现后,英伟达董事会一直在与一家外部公司合作,寻找黄仁勋的潜在继任者。报道中的婚外情包括与一名据称被怀疑为中国从事间谍活动的女性的关系。董事会正在考虑任命一位临时首席执行官,同时寻找正式人选。
Nvidia’s board has been working with an outside firm to identify potential replacements for Huang following reports of multiple extramarital affairs, including one with a woman who is reportedly suspected of spying for China, a person familiar with the situation said. The board is weighing the idea of naming a temporary chief while searching for a permanent one.
