June 4 – Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang plans to sell up to 6 million shares, worth roughly $810 million, by the end of 2025, according to a regulatory filing made under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.
The move isn’t sudden or unusual. Huang’s sale was set up in March and is part of a scheduled program that allows executives to sell stock without violating insider trading rules. These sales occur at predetermined times, regardless of market conditions or company performance.
Huang, who still owns over 922 million shares, more than 3.7% of Nvidia, remains one of the chip giant’s biggest shareholders. The sale amounts to less than 1% of his stake and appears to be more about locking in gains than losing faith.
Nvidia stock has skyrocketed 1,400% over the past five years, and Huang has played a central role in that run. He recently described the company as being off to the races in its next phase of AI-driven growth.
