Director Mark Stevens filed disclosures showing he sold over $411 million in NVDA shares across seven transactions between August 31 and September 2. Prices ranged from $220 to $226 per share. General Counsel Timothy Teter added a further $6.5M sale in the same window. It is unclear whether the trades were pre-planned under a 10b5-1 schedule. At that scale, the market will be watching closely.
