According to reports, executives and board members of NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA.US) have collectively sold over $1 billion worth of company stocks in the past year, with a significant portion of the transactions occurring in recent weeks. In just this month, insiders at NVIDIA Corporation have sold approximately $500 million worth of stocks. This comes as investor enthusiasm for artificial intelligence has pushed the company's stock price to an all-time high. With massive investments pouring into the AI infrastructure market, NVIDIA Corporation's stock price has rapidly risen. The company's current market value exceeds $380 billion. NVIDIA Corporation CEO Jensen Huang has started selling company stocks for the first time since September last year. NVIDIA Corporation stated that the trades were executed based on a pre-arranged trading plan set up in March of this year, with the aim of complying with regulatory requirements and avoiding accusations of insider trading. Currently, Jensen Huang still holds a significant amount of company shares. According to VerityData, which monitors insider trading activity, Jensen Huang's sales were triggered after NVIDIA Corporation's stock price broke through $150 and reached the threshold set in his trading plan. Such trading plans typically include a mandatory "cooling-off period" that must be waited out before sales can begin. The 90-day window in Jensen Huang's plan expired recently. According to the plan, Jensen Huang can sell a maximum of 6 million shares in a year. If calculated at the current price, he could cash out over $900 million. Other insiders have also been cashing out. NVIDIA Corporation board member, former Sequoia Capital partner and early investor Mark Stevens disclosed a plan to sell up to 4 million shares this month, currently valued at approximately $550 million, of which around $288 million has already been cashed out. NVIDIA Corporation's Executive Vice President of Worldwide Field Operations, Jay Puri, sold $25 million worth of company stocks last Wednesday. Jay Puri has been with NVIDIA Corporation for over 20 years and has played a key role in the company's international expansion. Other board members, Tench Coxe and Brooke Seawell, have also conducted cashing out operations recently. Tench Coxe, one of the founding partners of Sutter Hill Ventures, sold approximately $143 million worth of shares on June 9th, while Brooke Seawell has cashed out around $48 million this month. Both individuals have a strong relationship with NVIDIA Corporation, with Tench Coxe being involved in the company's early development and Brooke Seawell serving as a board member since 1997.
