shares
of the

giant worth approximately $36.4 million, further trimming his holdings in the company he co-founded. The move comes as Huang's soaring net worth places him in close proximity to legendary investor
Warren Buffett
in global wealth rankings.
According to CNBC reports, the latest transaction involved 225,000 shares and was part of a broader trading plan adopted in March, which allows Huang to sell up to six million shares of Nvidia through the end of 2025.

He had earlier sold a separate tranche in June worth around $15 million under the same arrangement.
Last year, Huang had divested nearly $700 million worth of shares under a similar prearranged plan. Following the most recent disclosure, Nvidia shares rose by about 1% in Friday trading, CNBC reported.
The tech executive's wealth has surged alongside Nvidia's meteoric rise as a leader in the artificial intelligence hardware space. The company's GPUs have become indispensable for training and running large language models, fueling massive demand from both enterprises and investors.

As per CNBC, Huang's net worth has jumped by over $29 billion just in 2025 so far, marking a gain of more than 25%. Bloomberg's Billionaires Index estimates his fortune at $143 billion, placing him nearly neck and neck with Berkshire Hathaway chairman Warren Buffett, who stands at $144 billion.
The company itself has hit record-breaking milestones in recent months. CNBC noted that Nvidia became the first U.S. firm to cross a $4 trillion market capitalization earlier this week, surpassing tech giants Microsoft and Apple in the process.
Despite his ongoing stock sales, Huang continues to hold over 858 million Nvidia shares, both directly and indirectly through various partnerships and trusts.

Agrovision farmers' market to come up near Wardha Rd
Nagpur: Union minister Nitin Gadkari on Saturday laid the foundation for the Agrovision Foundation's Farmers' Market near Hotel Radisson Blu on Wardha Road, calling the upcoming facility a landmark in promoting modern agriculture and sustainable development in Vidarbha. Speaking at the ceremony, Gadkari said the new complex will be more than just a building; it will serve as a centre for agricultural knowledge, innovation, and training. "We have commercially bought the land where the six-storey building of Agrovision is being built. It will also have a laboratory and training hall with a capacity of 200 farmers. NMC has given us the public utility land on which we are building a garden and open-air theatre, which will be used for cultural and social purposes. Apart from this, NMC has leased us land for 30 years at Rs16 lakh per annum rent. On this land, we are constructing a big building of 1 lakh sq ft," said Gadkari. "The new building will have ample parking space. On the ground floor, it will have a big organic, fruits, vegetables and grains market. It will also have underground cold storage. The farmer will keep his produce for sale at the market and directly sell to the consumer. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like She's 75 and Retiring - Her Handcrafted Jewelry Is 80% OFF Artisan Weekly Read More Undo He will pay a nominal 8% to 10% fee," said Gadkari, adding that the building will have big halls.
