Jensen had the choice of coming clean like this, where half of Silicon Valley is rallying to his defence and he remains a multi-billionaire (and maybe saves his marriage), or having this exposed by the new Congress, at which point all manner of punitive countermeasures against Nvidia are on the table.

Currently, Energy & Commerce and Oversight & Investigations are asleep. Come January, they won't be.

Maybe a way to dump stocks without everyone screaming insider trading.
