[뉴스메이커] NVIDIA stock price soars… CEO Jensen Huang is on the verge of entering the ‘world’s 20 richest people’
This is ‘News Maker’ where you meet the main characters in the news.
As the stock price of American semiconductor company Nvidia soars, CEO Jensen Huang is expected to soon join the ranks of the world’s 20 richest people.
It took just one day for Jensen Huang to earn 10.6 trillion won in assets.
What is the secret to NVIDIA and Jensen Huang’s rapid growth?
Let’s meet in today’s newsmaker.
“The growth rate is scary.” This is a reference to the American semiconductor company NVIDIA.
NVIDIA, a leader in artificial intelligence semiconductors, has reported performance that exceeds market expectations.
Compared to a year ago, sales soared by 265% and gross profit by 769%.
After the surprise earnings announcement, Nvidia’s stock price soared more than 15% in one day.
The market capitalization also increased by KRW 360 trillion, setting a record for the largest increase in market capitalization in a single day.
The Nvidia effect boosted not only American stock markets such as the Dow, but also Japanese and European stock markets.
People’s attention also focused on Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang.
This is because Jensen Huang’s asset value has increased significantly due to the surge in Nvidia’s stock price.
Jensen Huang’s net worth, which increased in just one day, is a huge amount of about 8 billion dollars, or 10.6 trillion won in Korean money.
Jensen Huang’s assets were $13.5 billion at the beginning of last year, or 17.9 trillion won in Korean money.
At the time, he ranked 128th among the world’s richest people.
However, as Nvidia’s stock price soared more than five times due to the artificial intelligence craze, Jensen Huang’s ranking as the world’s richest person rose rapidly to 21st place.
The reason why Jensen Huang’s remarkable success is particularly surprising is because he had a difficult childhood.
Jensen Huang, who was born in Taiwan and moved to the United States at the age of 9, suffered from all kinds of racial discrimination and school violence.
But he wasn’t discouraged and wasn’t afraid of challenges.
As a result, the current Nvidia was born.
Jensen Huang says, “I work thinking I’ll fail after 30 days.”
Where will his success story end?
