Building Wealth While Cashing Out — NVIDIA CEO Huang Again Sells $38 Million in Stock This Year

TradingKey - As NVIDIA’s stock (NVDA.US) hits new highs, CEO Jensen Huang continues with his planned share sales. According to a recent SEC filing, he recently sold 225,000 shares, raising approximately $38 million. This transaction is part of his pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan set at the beginning of the year, under which he may sell up to 6 million shares throughout 2025.

Since kicking off this selling program earlier this year, Huang has now offloaded a total of 1.2 million shares, worth roughly $190 million. Last year, he similarly executed a structured selling plan and cashed out over $700 million in stock.

Fueled by the global AI boom, NVIDIA’s shares have continued to surge, pushing its market cap close to $4.2 trillion and placing it among the world’s most valuable companies. As of Wednesday’s close, shares were trading at $171.37, up 24% year-to-date. Huang’s net worth has also climbed to $14.92 billion, making him the sixth-richest person globally.

In related positive news for the company on Tuesday, the U.S. government approved the export of NVIDIA’s H20 AI chip to China. Huang said that future products shipped to China would continue to feature upgraded technologies.

In addition to Huang, NVIDIA director Brooke Seawell recently sold $16 million worth of shares, drawing investor attention to whether insider selling activity signals caution about near-term performance or simply reflects routine portfolio management.
