The chipmaker’s stock hit a record on Jun 25, and it reclaimed the crown as the world’s most valuable company

NVIDIA insiders sold over US$1 billion worth of company stock in the past year, with a notable uptick in recent trading activity as executives capitalise on surging investor interest in artificial intelligence (AI), the Financial Times reported on Sunday (Jun 29).
More than US$500 million of the share sales took place this month as the California-based chip designer’s share price climbed to an all-time high, the report said.
Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s chief executive, started selling shares during the week of Jun 23 for the first time since September, a US Securities and Exchange Commission filing showed.
Nvidia’s stock hit a record on Wednesday, and the chipmaker reclaimed the crown as the world’s most valuable company after an analyst said the chipmaker was set to ride a “Golden Wave” of artificial intelligence.
Its latest gains reflect the US stock market’s return to the “AI trade” that fuelled massive gains in chip stocks and related technology companies in recent years on optimism about the emerging technology.
Nvidia did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The company’s shares have rebounded over 60 per cent from their closing low on Apr 4, when Wall Street was reeling from President Donald Trump’s global tariff announcements. US stocks, including Nvidia, have recovered on expectations the White House will reach trade deals to soften the tariffs. REUTERS
