Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is preparing to offload a significant chunk of company stock—again.
In a new regulatory filing with the SEC, Nvidia disclosed that Huang has adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan to sell up to 6 million shares of NVDA. At current prices, the planned sale could be worth roughly $855 million before taxes.
Details on the planned Nvidia planned sale
The trading plan was established back on March 20, 2025, and is set to remain in effect through the end of the year. So far, no shares have been sold under the new arrangement. Rule 10b5-1 plans are commonly used by executives to pre-schedule trades and avoid the appearance of insider trading, especially when they’re regularly exposed to material nonpublic information.
This isn’t Huang’s first major stock divestment. Under a similar plan last year, he sold the same number of shares, 6 million, between June and September, raking in about $713 million in gross proceeds at an average price of $118.83 per share.
While these planned sales don’t suggest a bearish view on the company, they are sure to grab attention, especially as Nvidia stock trades near all-time highs and following blockbuster Q1 earnings.
For long-term investors, the takeaway is nuanced: insider selling via pre-planned routes isn’t inherently negative, but it’s always worth watching, particularly when the amounts involved are approaching $1 billion.
