Agreed the amount of money she spends on PR fluff to present herself as anything more than lucked into her situation.

fundamentals still good, this is just a minor PR setback

Fundamentals all still there. Just a minor PR setback but gonna rip after earnings.

Altruistic_Finger669

He doesnt care. Its just PR. Everybody knows he isnt coming back

Lunarisation

If the revenue and stock gains Jensen brings in outweighs the litigation costs and negative PR then he’s coming back. HR guidelines are not law. It’s purely cost benefit assessment.

Are there no limits to the pre-IPO PR stunts that Anthropic will pull?

WanWhiteWolf

As someone who worked in management, this was not even a choice for the board. It's an automatic dismissal. Since I see people mixing up things, let me split this up the problems: .1. **Infidelity**. Him sleeping with a woman that is not his wife is a moral / ethical problem. As someone who is the face of the company, this can be a PR concern but in the grand scheme of things, this is not something you let a 3 decade CEO go. This is mostly a PRIVATE problem. .2. **Corporate compliance**. Him sleeping with a woman that is not his wife is one thing; him sleeping with womens that are reporting to him, is totally different. If he would have hired a hooker and get caught we would be in point .1. but this is no longer a private problem; this is a corporate / BUSINESS problem. The amount of lawsuits that can pour in is not insignificant. Board accepting this would make it complicit. At this stage you have to insulate the company and investors as much as possible. .3. **Embargo bypass**. We are entering here in deep legal problems. Private issues will damage reputation. Company problems will damage reputation and financials (lawsuits). But the penalty of knowingly circumventing law passed by US gouverment can be jailtime. Any sane lawyer / board member will have 0 tolerance for such findings. The media is focusing on point .1. because "CEO having multiple afairs" is way more catchy than "CEO circumvents trade compliance law". And media makes money on hits. But make no mistake, the board of one the biggest company in the world has a different scrutiny angle than a tabloit headline.

AdIll814

I bet Jensen is sick to his stomach. This is an absolute PR nightmare.

koolmagicguy

Yeah, that’s not really the issue here. It’s the terrible PR of cheating on your wife who helped you build your company from scratch. And mostly the Chinese spy part. That’s not exactly great

Amazing PR management for this scandal. They have as all talking about his affairs like the problem was the cheating and not the smuggling of 8+ billion in chips to china.

SadDiscussion7610

I’m really surprised Jensen seemed to have no plan of handling the scandal. Like dude you were f-ing around since 2025 but there’s 0 plan on his side to PR or fight for the board. Dude just rolled over and surrendered.

donorcycle

That's not how the real world works unfortunately. Here's a pro-tip. Follow the money always. In this case, Jensen has cost Nvidia over 2 trillion dollars just since the honey pot scandal came to light. Jensen had hired a PR firm last year. Their area of expertise you ask? Sex scandals. The board knew roughly a year ago. Which is why the impending lawsuit (class action) is about deceit. The company purposely misled investors by covering up / dummying down the magnitude of Jensen's doings. If investors knew there was the potential for government investigations re: potentially shady dealings with China receiving a metric fuck ton of Nvidia chips, chips they were not supposed to have, well, would you still be jumping in to invest? This isn't because Jensen tripped, fell, and his penis accidentally inserted into another vagina(s). This is because Jensen got sloppy, cost the company (the wealthy elites) 2 trillion dollars (and counting), on top of the inevitable investigations. He had to fall on the sword. There was no other move that could've been made. The media (and the elite) want you to focus on the infidelity. An infidelity that the powers that be already knew about. One doesn't hire a sex scandal PR firm because they're bored. And you don't do it a year prior, unless the powers that be already knew about it.

tankharris

He tanked the value of his company because he was compromised by a Chinese asset and his company is being pumped and upheld by the United States government. It’s two conflicting things. He was shown to be an unreliable leader and not dependable by his American investor base. So, that’s why he was outed. It was a bonus to minimize the PR nightmare. But despite his contributions and power over nvidia, at the end, he was still at the mercy of the board. He is and will still always be so filthy rich that he won’t ever be able to spend his fortune even if he purposely tried to.

theparrotofdoom

Can a random tidbit from My resume be spread by a PR firm who’s on the books of either Nvidia, the university, or the interim ceo, to raise my profile amongst the other CEO’s with seek and destroy penises? I’d really like to pay electricity this month. Thanks.

LordIndica

Where is the lie?  He is so evidently a bumbling loser born on 3rd base that paid the umpire to look the other way while he illegally made a steal for Home, then announced he hit a homerun. Then (to continue the B-ball metaphor) when his team lost anyway he bought the opposing team and claimed he founded it and was part of it all along.  The guy was born rich and has made his fortune by having that money to buy-out other people actually making things of value, then rinses and repeats. He pays other people to make the companies he buys function profitably. He paid a PR team to make him appear like the "tony stark" tech bro some dorks think he is, and when that puffed his ego so much he believed his own BS and started making his own public appearances, his popularity tanked when his evident ineptitude was laid bare.  Like seriously, this is the loser who is such a pathetic poser that he paid an actual globally ranked player to level an account in the video game Path of Exile 2 so that he could pretend to be one of the best players in the world when it was popular last year. The second he got on a stream to try and show off his skill, he sucked and was outed as the liar he is.  So yeah, I genuinely don't think for a second that Elon Musk has done Jack shit to earn literally a single penny that he has acquired in life. The dude was not *allowed* to fail by a already established and moneyed family and then had to suckle on government subsidies for decades just to keep his companies afloat. His actual involvement in something now is anathema to success. Look at how the one part of Tesla that he had direct creative and executive control over was the cybertruck and that crashed and burned like the shit idea it was. This is the loser that paid $44B for Twitter, then drove its profitably into the ground, sitting at $5B-$10B, but it doesn't matter because losing $30B doesn't matter when you don't actually have to earn your money.

Fearfultick0

You have a very narrow view of what it means to be buddy-buddy with Trump. Trump was briefed about this in 2025 and again in May of 2026, but early on, Jensen went out of his way to be on good terms with Trump, so Trump let it slide. For instance, the day before Trump’s inauguration, NVIDIA published a blog post complaining about the Biden administration and saying they look forward to working with Trump. Trump also took Jensen to China on Air Force One, despite already being warned about the spy situation/export control violations. The other major tech Billionaires seem to have a good relationship with Jensen, and they all should understand PR and not crater their relationship with NVIDIA based on a claim about a tax policy that didn’t even pass into law.

YassinRs

No one's worshipping a CEO. Just disagreeing with your stupid comment about him being a glorified PR person. 

ImSoClassy

Jeez this really hurt your ego. I’ll admit you are right that he’s a PR and class-action lawsuit perspective, I never denied that. However there are aspects in which he was not a liability. The truth is things changed after news of the second affair broke since he directly went against his own corporate policies. Any chance he had of regaining trust was gone after that. It’s one thing to be honeypotted by someone external in a foreign country. It’s another to break your own rules and disrespect everyone working under you.

Doctor_Saved

Get a good PR firm. Admit you have a "sex addiction". Do some rehab or something similar. Come out and say you are a "changed man". Convince you wife to stay with you and do a come back story.

looks_at_lines

Jensen (or your PR or lawyer firm), just stop. Take the L and move on with your life.

ironfordinner

Buddy this is a complete distraction. These two other side chicks are a PR distraction to take away from the fact that his gf was literally a Chinese spy. Now the narrative is that he’s just a horndog

poopfacecrapmouth

I’m sure there’s a ton of hush money going around right now. Might need to have my wife say she also had an affair with him so his PR team can give us some money to stay quiet

Ronoh

PR. Burn all the cannon fodder at once so you can do a come back at some point.

JohnHazardWandering

Nvidia. Keep him around for a sense of stability, but can't have him as an employee (CEO). Often route of CEOs who are forced out by PR issues. 

morbidbattlecry

Huang's PR firm putting in work on reddit.

0202_tihssitidder

Lots of tech gets stolen all the time. And employees change jobs all the time. The affair is bad PR. The CEO does have to go (for several reasons), but the company will continue to be fine.

neembupaani

Engineer CEO is a PR game. There's an army of actual hardware and software engineers working at depths that he neither understands nor needs to. He only knows (and need to know) surface level stuff and people feel impressed because they don't know even that. It's an interim cfo, hopefully they'll find someone more suitable. This being abrupt is why I said that there will be a wobbly transition phase. But you can be assured in the assumption that the investors will put their interests first and figure out a set of people who will be able to replace him. No one is irreplaceable, and it's your hubris if you think someone is.

joeg26reddit

ASSUME THE POSITION 

InvisibleBlueRobot

What if you're doctor was sharing images and private client info with his affair partner? Or selling the data? Or doing who knows what with it? What if this data would be used for illicit purposes? What if the affair cost you 30% more as a patient for some obtuse reason? What if you're not just a patient, but an investor in the medical clinic and the affair was with another patient and it opened up $T in potential lawsuits and liabilities?  NVIDIA IP at risk.  Bad PR Stock price drop, impacting investors. This isn't about people who buy a ship. This isn't about an affair.  It's about the damage to Nvidia and its shareholders. 

viral3075

it's almost as if the 5000 patches the last 3 months were just PR

neversleeps212

Good lord the people in this sub are so regarded. First off it’s Jensen not Jenson. He’s also going to be very busy with various legal hearings over the next few years between his likely divorce (no prenup) and the legal fallout from potentially assisting in export control violations. He’s also already 63 years old (7 years older than Jobs was when he died). So let’s say all the legal drama does down and the PR stink clears in \~4 years. At that point, he’s 67. When you look at Gates, Bezos etc it’s fairly common that tech founders at that age are stepping away from their original company. It would be pretty much unprecedented at that age to be joining or starting a new company.

coinmoin

For what would he need a pardon for? He did not do anything illegal. Companies to which one can't sell are explicitly listed by the government. Nvidia and Jensen did nothing illegal, it is all just PR.

AnimalStyleCreole

Jensen is a gentlemen and a scholar. His family will issue positive PR, government(s) will intervene, Mr Huang will become the Billy G. 2.0 of 'ai humanity' philanthropy, and all will be forgiven. Back to your regular scheduled programming.

dobemish

I'm correcting your statement that "Said company doesn’t even have facilities" because a lot of the companies buying GPUs in 2025 did not have the facilities to put them in operation, so that's a misleading argument to make on its own. If it was a blatant shell company, it wouldn't be as easy to sell to them. Obviously they appeared legit at that time because export controls are carried out as I pointed out. If you're arguing that Microsoft, aws, meta and Google have credibility and are not breaking any laws, there are plenty of lawsuits I can point you to that beg to differ. If your arguing that a company that's based in Asia is shady just because it's based in Asia and you don't know about it....yeah. And yes, as a shareholder I believe they're overreacting and not putting the long term vision for the company first but rather reacting to a PR scandal to shut it down as soon as possible. Which makes sense on a PR level but they could have done things differently. Not my call.

CommieDrifter

how is it bad for PR, everyone knows billionaires sleep around He's still responsible for bringing nVidia to where they are, and it's hard to see this as anything but an extremely stupid and shortsighted decision made in order to appease the US government. Hope Jensen moves to the chinese competitor and brings all his knowledge with him and give AMD and nVidia some real competition

Lopsided-Regular-997

> is really bad PR and look for everyone Not everyone. I personally consider him a Chad after these revelations, and a role model. Though I realize most people disagree.

Zulakki

I went to say something similar, but we all know a CEO at that level is just a figure head job. They don't actually do anything. Its just PR, so if they do anything to effect that public image, it gets your fired. That said, If I was the board and we were looking to adopt a new more popular person to be the spokesperson for the company, and say they had a long contract still to go, id definitely use this tactic to get them replaced sooner

Budget-Project803

Lol there's no way you really think this is about PR. Also calling someone stupid for asking a question is terminally online Reddit loser behavior. Turn off your pc/phone lil guy

Sh0uldSign0ff

Yes, that’s totally fair point. But if the US is marketing their argument to protect the nuts and bolts, and Nvidia is that company. It’s safe to say that public sentiment may impact sales moving forward and impact the bottom line. Doesn’t mean the company doesn’t have value, but government may prefer moving with other primary partners in the future. It’s a PR issue more than a production/financial issue

Least_Gain5147

It's usually the PR optics like "if he can't be trusted with his personal life, can we trust him for business decision either?" so the shareholders typically err on the side of safe PR.

FeRooster808

Oh there's a lot more to it than that. There are journalists who have tracked that the CCP sent people to Megaspeed anytime Jensen was due to visit them in Singapore. There's the possibility the mistress and the company were all set up to work with Jensen since he was a loud proponent for selling to China. I'm not sure I'm convinced of that, but I am pretty convinced she wasn't a spy and he knew exactly what he was doing. And it seems hard to believe others at the company didn't. That of course opens up questions about all kinds of fraud and crimes. From SEC violations, cooking the books, to even, possibly treason since the industry is a matter of national security. As hard as it is to imagine, this story would be even bigger if Trump and his folks weren't running things (there's a questions that they are aware). Under any other administration the consequences would be enormous. IMHO, the reason this is coming out now is because the Democrats won such huge margins NVIDIA knows they won't be able to hide everything anymore. He was looking into sex scandal PR representation a year ago. The investigations will be a big issue for investors going forward.

Effective-Fondant610

Who the fuck cares about PR they care about share price

ORyantheHunter24

If you haven’t noticed, the gravity of “big legal trouble” is solely based on the input of the individual(s) who enforce the law at that particular time. This will only go as far as far as those individuals want it to, regardless of what the law says. And given Jensen’s perceived value to a lot of wealthy individuals portfolios and investment returns, I’d say very small chance he gets ‘truly’ removed from decision making around NVDA’s future. They have little to no direction w/o him & his wealthy investor buddies are not about to entrust their portfolios/growth expectations to some Joe Schmo down the line. They might make him sweat but out in court once or twice for optics but I don’t see that being anything more than top tier PR damage control.

neembupaani

Good, don't think you have the critical understanding needed to look past the "billionaire genius" PR

Charming_Account_351

Removing him as CEO doesn’t remove any level of ownership/stocks he has. As co-founder he probably still holds enough significant share to remain on the board. This probably just a PR decision to save face.

Historical-Juice-542

Finally or PR wise lol

CongruentDesigner

That what I was thinking Lay low for a year, come out and carefully manage the PR "I was foolish and it should never have happened". Wait another few years and see if it opens up. Depends if the new CEO is good or not though. If they're just as exceptional there may be less push to get him back. Problem is it cant take several years to find out if the new CEO hasn't fucked everything up.

captainunderpants111

redditor moment thinking money is the only factor in life. I agree that jensen blew this company up to the stratosphere but now the face of your company now being labeled as a cheater who sleeps around with his company underlings and Chinese spies is really bad PR and look for everyone, are you really that dense? If you ran a company do you want your customers to point and laugh at your company with reminding everyone every single day the face of the company engages in infidelity but the board doesn’t care because $$$$?

FalconShot9638

There PR to consider, HR issues, politics of sleeping with a Spy. It all adds up. People say private life should matter tom work or public life, but there's validity behind the saying "keep your house in order" A CEO of that caliber getting caught in 2 affairs, one with an employee, another a spy worries both stakeholders and shareholders Theres more than morality at play here. His house is not in order and at that level, it can greatly diminish a person's focus, priorities, and talents

Not_a_question-

> Because the face of your company now being labeled as a cheater who sleeps around with his company underlings and Chinese spies is really bad PR and look for everyone? Are you really that stupid? The president of the USA is a cheater, rapist, and messes around with spies all the time. I think that you're the stupid one to accuse the other guy from being stupid, while ignoring the state of the world right now: the only thing that matters to companies is profit. And jensen brings that.

dre193

Are you serious? How about all the reptilians in the Epstein list? Was that good PR? How come that no one resigned for that??

jfwelll

Funny you mention it because jobs was a genius at marketing just like Jensen. Of course the execution matters but you need a good leader with a good vision to envision the future and to have your team exécute. It is well know that Jobs was a pain in the ass to work for but he was a genius when it comes to having the vision and making it happen, aswell as selling it to the masses. Thats why I think its bad to get rid of Jensen. Jensen is an insanely good PR dude, hes the face of nvda and hes the reason nvda is where its at. I hope they can find someone to match this but very few people can do that. Nvda have the current sales but you need the one with the vision if you want it to keep evolving and growing in the future. Anyway time will tell but I stand with Jensen

Baseketballer50000

Do people buy computer chips based on PR. I thought it was just the best product.

Correct_Emotion8437

I think it’s not directly because of the cheating or PR problems. I think it’s because Jenson Huang is going to be hauled in front of congress, compelled to testify, etc. This is like entering treatment the moment you get a DUI so you can say to the judge that you’re actively working on the problem. Not to mention the time suck. It will would be hard to balance running the company and defending investigations.

demlet

Seriously, I always wonder what people think CEOs do. He's a glorified PR person.

captainunderpants111

are you really blaming everything on the board and not the genius nerd who blew up on social media, got a cult following, started getting worshipped by everyone, was autographing tits, got honeypotted and risked company data, a second affair with an internal exec, signed ndas and paid people to stay quiet…. we really not gonna hold the dude who was thinking with his penis even a little accountable? PR is still a thing buddy. investors ain’t gonna trust a dude who’s on demon time and cheats on his wife cause of a leather jacket and god-like memes. Elon gets away with crap because he ain’t married and he still retained voting shares. jensen gave those up when it was a young company to help it grow

Smellyjelly12

The reason it's big is that you don't want a CEO that is involved in multiple scandals directly affecting the company. That opens the company up to bad PR and law suits which could turn away some investors. The underlying business model is not affected. It's actually a great buying opportunity

ryanxwonbinx

Because the face of your company now being labeled as a cheater who sleeps around with his company underlings and Chinese spies is really bad PR and look for everyone? Are you really that stupid?

NewSeaworthiness8814

\> Jensen was Nvidia I know what you mean, but isn’t the demand for chips still through the roof? This is horrible PR but who’s gonna stop buying/ordering chips because the CEO stepped down?

mightykev

He should lied, no way FBI will be able to find the Chinese spy in China, investigation will be swiped under the carpet, news will fade eventually with good PR.

DataDude00

People really drinking that BS when it comes to CEOs and their work effort  Most of their role is superficial PR.   Coffee chats, luncheon meetings, townhall sessions etc  It is super easy for him to book off calendar time to bang some ladies 

Bagholder4lifez

The fact the board didnt kick him out before market open just prove the point that they should also be removed. Bad PR and will tank the stock twice

slothropdroptop

NVIDIA PR needs to release a fucking statement to save its stock price instead of OnlyLeaks sripfed to us jfc

neembupaani

CEOs are branding and PR people. They are not that important. > He's literally one of the only people out there with both the technical knowledge and business acumen to helm it as well as he did. Buddy what? You don't really believe that do you? He's a 60 year old man. He doesn't know shit about the technical stuff. What are you gonna say next? He could build a

jfwelll

Except all these companies run on how bright the future is and rely on good PR. So yeah you kind of need it. And a ceo who show he cares about him employees shouldnt be punished but praised. Ones hot the others got the canons.

makanimike

There will be more. But I kinda now expect there to be something else and more substantial. The stock will recover on Friday. Then, on the weekend, "they" will drop another bomb. Whatever is happening right now seems coordinated. Like some PR or lawyer team or giving it to us in little bites.

icup2079

Probably use AI instead of a PR firm

PapitoMusk

Board haven't fired Jensen Huang yet. Despite the bad PR they know HE IS NVIDIA

lemurtowne

It's a takedown. There's videos going years back, the USG knew for a while, Huang hired infidelity PR firms last year, and Trump/Xi meet on REEs chips and trade next week when suddenly the biggest proponent of US/China AI trade is scuttled. The info and articles have existed for a good while, but they suddenly just hit every major media outlet with the exact same talking points in a ~24-36h span. You don't need a tinfoil hat to see that it's orchestrated, and this is not organic.

captainunderpants111

i forgot about that. Jensen is in the same category as elon being such a viral face of the company that people literally associate them 1:1 but elon’s control allowed him so much more leeway to fuck around plus his personality of an autist genius plays a huge part in his PR and what people/investors expect or willing to let slide. Elon just doubles down on everything and trolls on twitter. Jensen is an old school nerd who blew up, got a cult following, a sick leather jacket, and now on demon time for the first time ever

palmerama

More crisis PR stooges posting this crap.

CD274

MSFT probably Their CFO yesterday said something like "AI has to make sure it does positive things for locals" so they get the PR issue

scottyLogJobs

If they talked with Huang, sorted their shit out, got some PR damage control on this, made sure no more skeletons were about to come out, and put on a UNITED FRONT with Jensen still at the helm at a strong earnings, the stock would rebound somewhat and stabilize. I truly hope the board is not stupid enough to oust him.

Phareswheel68

I don't think he'll make it. The first affair, maybe. But 2 and both with high-significance people? I'm not sure they can't fire him without a massive PR backlash. Especially if the spy is actually a spy and has been helping China secure chips.

hyper_pomegranate

Because an extension of a human can't ever connect better with a human than a human, no matter how much the PR or mass-media coordination they promote. More doesn't exactly mean better. I'd say if you give a sniper a target, just because he has unlimited ammo and eventually gets it, doesn't mean he's going to hit the target dependably the first time. Also AGI is nonsense and doesn't exist. Language is limited

Imaginary-Case3976

She you mean.. But yes, it's to stabilize the stock and some good PR to have a clean record woman in charge for now

LongjumpingDark6535

His PR team is keeping him from doing so. Likely negotiating his exit and what that looks like. I think before Friday we hear more about the transition and who takes over in the interim.

Imaginary-Case3976

Yeah, it’s going to be her. They need a woman to settle the news and some good PR. She won’t be long anyway; more like a bridge

ChrisFromIT

Yeah. And Intel did have some interesting things in the work under Pat, like one that could have been huge for computing in general was the idea of rentable units instead of hyperthreading. Sadly the new Intel CEO mothballed that since one of the steps to gettting to rentable units was removing hyperthreading and Intel got a shit ton of bad PR because of it.

captainunderpants111

because investors can’t trust a dude who got honeypotted and fucked another exec all while cheating on his wife. PR is a thing no matter how smart he is and arguably the reason nvda is where they’re at today

sdoiaf

I bought puts on NVDA right before this leak dropped, so now I'm either a genius or just incredibly unlucky with timing. My portfolio is vaporized but at least the memes are funny. Corporate PR really fumbled the bag here while my calls got liquidated. Oof.

Rock_or_Rol

There’s no way the board removes him. He’s a rare CEO in that he absolutely is integral to the company. It is not structured to run without him, which is a very real and substantial criticism just as much as it is anything else. Whatever PR hit they’re taking doesn’t go anywhere close to the actual damage removing him would do. Not to mention, nuking the company that is central to our whole market is just ridiculous.

Successful_Owl_

So then you would agree Anduril has barely any reoccurring purchases from customers or that they aren't producing nearly as much as their PR lets on?

Constant-Ice6916

PR & the conduct/optics of a company's most public facing position is absolutely part of the business in this day & age, whether you like it or not. I sold the farm near peak earlier this year, then reopened a vastly smaller position when news of the first scandal broke. I thought he'd be able to weather the first no problem, but this second scandal on top of the first is making me reconsider...

nanyabidness2

PR firm strategy

maddprof

Not a good quarter for Nvidia PR at all. First the information that Nvidia threatened AI companies to take GPU's now or "they might not get any in the future". And now the International Man of screwing Chinese Spies.

snark42

Eh, PR sometimes thinks that looks better than saying you had a situationship. See Bill Clinton. But yes, if they didn't he should have divorced.

Successful_Owl_

That is because they hired a company that does crisis work to get ahead of all this months ago. That was a PR stunt to show a "loving husband".

groceriesN1trip

Jensen hired a PR Firm in Oct 2025 specifically to address corporate scandals. When a CEO does this, they’re required to inform the board. If he did and they didn’t investigate, they’re liable to be removed. If he didn’t, he’s out. Possible the board is using the affairs to skirt the breach of fiduciary duty

Successful_Owl_

Problem is Anduril is a joke and will be gone after this administration no matter how much their CEO brags about being a Democrat. They are all PR and blowing VC money with little payoff.

thementalsadist

There was no skirting. Everything they did was legal. If megaspeed sent chips to China then Nvidia has no responsibility. The department of commerce sent a rep to Malaysia to inspect the chips weren’t being sent out. If they were then the US would start seizing and sanctioning. China wouldn’t want this PR nightmare either. Megaspeed has a massive data center there that’s running and operational. Read the whole article. The joke of the restrictions on China buying chips is that all they have to do is setup the hyperscaler in a neighboring country and use it from China. Anyone can rent compute from anywhere.

whyshw

Jensen should hire a high profile PR firm, check into rehab, and take some time off. It works all the time

Minute_Lifeguard2799

PR tactics to depict him as being a notorious womanizer, to deflect from the national security issue. An affair with an employee is nothing illegal if consensual. Funneling 240,000 GPUs to China is 3.6 roentgen level compared to that. Jensen had enough time to plan how this will play out.
