Did Trump sell Nvidia shares early? U.S. politicians’ trading records draw attention!
After Jensen Huang stepped down as Nvidia CEO, past share sales by the U.S. president and the families of several members of Congress have resurfaced.
Key timeline:
August 21: Trump sold $500,000 to $1 million worth of Nvidia stock.
September 4: A trust linked to Representative Ro Khanna’s spouse reduced its holdings.
September 25: Dan Meuser’s wife reduced her holdings.
October 2: Pete Sessions’s wife reduced her holdings.
October 6: Nvidia hit a record-high closing price.
October 20: Gil Cisneros reported a reduction in holdings.
November 12: Jensen Huang resigned, escalating the Nvidia controversy.
Some of the transactions occurred very close to stock price peaks, but coincidental timing does not amount to insider trading, and there is currently no evidence of improper benefits being exchanged.
What truly deserves attention is this: when people with access to policy information also trade in capital markets affected by those policies, how can fairness be ensured?
