"% of total stake" is the shares in this event against all the vested shares the person held that day, across every share class and holding entity, after that day's vesting. "n/a" means the person's holdings don't reconcile, or the row is a purchase. "Holdings record incomplete" means more shares were sold than the filings show the person held that day, so a percentage would be wrong.

Common questions

Is the Nvidia CEO selling stock?

Yes. Jensen Huang sold 975K shares ($181M) in the past 12 months, all of it under a trading plan disclosed in the filings.

Why are Nvidia insiders selling?

Filings rarely give a reason, and we don't guess at one. What they show is how the sales were made: 25% of sales by value ran under 10b5-1 trading plans disclosed in the filings and 75% had no disclosed plan. A trading plan schedules sales in advance.

Are any Nvidia insiders buying?

No. Officers and directors reported no purchases in the past 12 months.

How much of their stake did Nvidia insiders sell?

About 3.6% overall. As a group they still hold 93% of their starting shares. These figures leave out Jensen Huang, the largest holder (most holdings were last confirmed in 2014). That covers the 12 months to Oct 8, 2026 and counts vested shares reported on SEC Forms 3, 4 and 5, which is not an insider's whole wealth.

20 of 21 insiders fully reconciled: starting holdings plus reported transactions match ending holdings (14 exactly, 6 with a minor or footnoted difference). For 1 we show sales but not holdings; the ! icon on that row explains why. Percentages cover 17 of 21 officers and directors. Left out: Jensen Huang (most holdings were last confirmed in 2014); Mark Stevens (holdings couldn't be fully reconciled); Scott Gawel and Nicholas Parker (held no vested shares at the start). "Still held" compares ending with starting vested shares; a plus sign means the holding grew.

What explains the selling$2.07B of sales by plan status, purpose, seller and month

Officer and director open-market sales: $2.07B across 10,011,319 shares. Plan status and stated purpose are separate questions, and a sale can have both.

By plan status

The lighter segment is sales with no plan disclosed in the filing ($1.55B), including tax-related sales outside a plan.

No plan disclosed · $1.55B

Sales with no 10b5-1 plan and no tax reference in the filing. $1.50B of it is Mark Stevens. No plan disclosed is a statement about the filing, not about why the sale happened. Largest such sale: Mark Stevens, Sep 18, 2026

Taxes

1,275,552 shares ($242M) were withheld by the company for taxes, which isn't a market sale.

Charitable gifts · 979K shares

Gifts the filings describe as charitable. Gifts are not sales and are not included in the sale totals.

Open-market sales (Form 4 code S) by people who were officers or directors, in split-adjusted shares. Earlier years include people who have since left. A sale that an outside holder also reports (a family trust, a fund) is counted with outside holders in every year. Shares, not dollars, are compared, so a change in the stock price doesn't look like a change in selling. Years the filings don't fully cover are shown but left out of the average.

Sources and methodology1,499 filings from SEC EDGAR, and how we read them

All 1,499 Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed for Nvidia (SEC CIK 1045810) from Nov 22, 2002 to Sep 23, 2026, retrieved from SEC EDGAR on Oct 8, 2026. Prices are the ones reported in each filing, often weighted averages. 3 filings were left out because Nvidia filed them as an owner of another company's stock. 3 older filings exist only on paper and could not be read.

Probable 2-for-1 stock split on or before May 22, 2006 (first filing that shows post-split balances). Splits aren't reported as transactions; 12 holding lines changed by exactly this ratio, so earlier share counts are restated.

Probable 3-for-2 stock split on or before Sep 27, 2007 (first filing that shows post-split balances). Splits aren't reported as transactions; 11 holding lines changed by exactly this ratio, so earlier share counts are restated.

Probable 4-for-1 stock split on or before Jul 19, 2021 (split date stated in a footnote). Splits aren't reported as transactions; 31 holding lines changed by exactly this ratio, so earlier share counts are restated.

Probable 10-for-1 stock split on or before Jun 8, 2024 (split date stated in a footnote). Splits aren't reported as transactions; 37 holding lines changed by exactly this ratio, so earlier share counts are restated.

Holdings. Each holding line (a share class plus an owner, such as a trust or LLC) carries its last reported balance forward. Entities first reported during the period start at zero, so transfers between an insider's own trusts don't count as selling. Lines not reported for three years or more are listed separately and left out of totals.

Sales. A sale counts as under a 10b5-1 plan if its footnote cites one or the filing's Rule 10b5-1 box is checked, and as tax-related if its footnote cites tax obligations or sell-to-cover. Shares withheld by the company for taxes are listed separately. Sales with neither attribute are labeled "no plan disclosed".
