Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has made headlines once again as he sold 24,990 shares of Nvidia stock on October 29, 2025, netting $5.19 million from the transaction. The shares sold for prices ranging between $205.65 and $211.76 each. This sale is a continuation of a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan that Huang established in March 2025, which allows him to sell up to six million shares before the end of the year.
Notably, since June 2025, Huang has sold over $1 billion in Nvidia stock. The shares initially valued at $865 million have surged more than 40% during this period, significantly increasing their total sale value. Following his latest transaction, Huang holds a direct stake of 69.7 million shares in Nvidia and controls hundreds of millions more through various trusts and investment vehicles, such as the Jen-Hsun & Lori Huang Living Trust and J. and L. Huang Investments.
Huang’s significant stock sales have not diminished his wealth; he is currently listed as the ninth richest person on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a net worth of $175.7 billion, having gained $61.3 billion in 2025 alone. Despite the sales, he retains a 3.5% ownership in the company, which he has been progressively liquidating since 2001 to the tune of over $2.9 billion. Additionally, Huang has generously donated shares worth more than $300 million this year to his foundation and other charitable initiatives.
This week, Nvidia marked a significant milestone by becoming the first company to reach a $5 trillion market valuation, just four months after surpassing the $4 trillion threshold. This remarkable growth has been driven by heightened demand for AI processors, alongside partnerships announced recently, including a $3 billion AI cluster initiative with Hyundai Motor Group in South Korea and plans to invest up to $1 billion in AI startup Poolside.
The trend of Nvidia insiders liquidating their shares is notable, with insiders having sold almost $1.5 billion in stock through the third quarter of 2025 alone. This follows a record-breaking sales year in 2024, where more than $2 billion was sold by insiders. In addition, several board members have also joined the ranks of the wealthiest individuals, though analysts maintain a favorable outlook on the stock despite these sales. Cantor Fitzgerald holds an Overweight rating with a $300 price target, while Truist Securities has a Buy rating with a $228 target, citing strong demand indicators.
Huang’s final sale of 25,000 shares marks an end to the current phase of his planned stock liquidation, as Nvidia continues to thrive in the competitive landscape of artificial intelligence technology. The company’s upcoming discussions regarding its third-quarter fiscal 2026 results are highly anticipated, considering the strong performance and strategic initiatives laid out in recent months.
