WSJ: Jensen Huang Called Colette Kress 'a Deer in the Headlights' at August Chip-Backstop Meeting

According to a Wall Street Journal report surfaced Nov 12-13, Jensen Huang interrupted CFO Colette Kress at an August 2026 finance meeting to call her 'a deer in the headlights' and merely a 'reporting CFO' — not a strategy partner. The meeting was convened to diagnose a 'ballooning problem' of Nvidia considering billions in guarantees for customers that couldn't afford its chips. Three months later Kress is interim CEO after Huang's resignation.
