Anissa Gardizy and Robbie Whelan at The Wall Street Journal, published by To Vima, report on November 13 that Huang criticized finance chief Colette Kress during an August meeting.

Their account describes tension over financial guarantees intended to help customers buy Nvidia chips. It says Kress questioned how to select and value such deals and later reduced one proposed commitment.

The account relies on people familiar with the discussions. These reported private exchanges provide context for Huang’s leadership and its consequences; they are distinct from the confirmed announcement of his departure.
