Nvidia insiders dump over $105 million in monster NVDA stock trade

Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) insiders have sold more than $105 million worth of company stock so far in 2026, amid the equity’s continued dominance in the artificial intelligence (AI) space.

Filings indicate that the combined sales amount to 575,280 shares, with a total value of approximately $105.56 million.

The bulk of the activity came from multiple automatic sales executed in January and early February.

In particular, Colette Kress, Nvidia’s chief financial officer, recorded four separate transactions across direct and indirect holdings. On February 4, she sold 27,640 shares at $172.54 per share and an additional 20,000 shares at $172.40.

Earlier, on January 13, she disposed of 27,640 shares at $184.17 and 20,000 shares at $184.15.

Meanwhile, Ajay Puri reported two automatic sales in January, selling 200,000 shares at $187.25 on January 7 and another 200,000 shares at $180.04 on January 21.

In addition, Donald Robertson reported the sale of 80,000 shares on January 2 at $188.85 per share. 

More Nvidia insiders dumping 

Notably, insider activity remains heavily weighted toward sales, with no buys reported in the last 12 months. Over the past year, insiders sold approximately $1.79 billion worth of shares across 15 executives, contributing to a 24-month total of about $2.88 billion in sales.

These sales reflect routine diversification, option exercises, and personal financial planning in a high-performing stock, common for Nvidia executives holding large equity positions, rather than signaling doubts about the company’s trajectory.

Beyond the transactions, the technology giant is making major moves to strengthen its AI dominance.

For instance, the company is reportedly in advanced talks to invest up to $30 billion in OpenAI in a funding round valuing the startup at $730 billion pre-money. The round could raise as much as $100 billion, with participation from major tech firms, further deepening Nvidia’s role in the AI ecosystem.

Nvidia also announced a multiyear partnership with Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META)  on February 17, 2026, to expand AI infrastructure. The deal includes deploying millions of Blackwell and Rubin GPUs, along with CPUs and networking technology, to power Meta’s on-premises and cloud AI initiatives.

Investors are now watching Nvidia’s fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings report, due February 25. Analysts expect revenue of about $65 billion and earnings per share of $1.52, following a record $57 billion in Q3 revenue, driven largely by data center sales.
