Jason Furman: NVIDIA stock decline implies some CEOs deliver more value than compensation
NVIDIA stock fall and CEO compensation

Jason Furman stated that the recent large decline in NVIDIA's stock price suggests the marginal product of at least some CEOs is extremely high, frequently exceeding their compensation, which he noted can be limited by norms.

Furman has previously advised that analysis of state wealth and high-income tax policies should consider their impact on total revenues, not only state-level effects, as noted in his post on calculating overall revenue effects of state tax changes. He has also reported that the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release October 2025 CPI figures due to a shutdown, planning instead to use interpolated data for the 12-month measure, according to an earlier update. These recent comments add to Furman’s ongoing observations on economic data and policy.
