Nvidia (NVDA) stock sank as much as 10% Thursday morning after CEO Jensen Huang stepped down and the company named CFO Colette Kress as interim chief executive officer.
Rivals Broadcom (AVGO) and AMD (AMD) gained on bets that its troubles could send more chip business their way.
AMD (AMD) stock rose more than 3% while Broadcom (AVGO) edged higher. The stocks extended gains following a jump on Wednesday.
The rest of the AI sector didn't fare as well. Shares of Nvidia-backed neocloud provider CoreWeave (CRWV) dropped 10% in pre-market trading on Thursday, giving back some of the prior session's gains sparked by a strong quarterly print. Peer Nebius (NBIS) also sank.
Other semiconductor names declined. Intel (INTC) stock dropped 2%, while shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM), which manufactures Nvidia chips, also fell more than 2%. Semiconductor equipment maker ASML (ASML) slipped into red territory.
Storage maker Sandisk (SNDK) dropped 5% in pre-market trading, and memory chipmakers Micron Technology (MU) and SK Hynix (SKHY) declined roughly 4%.
