NVDA EVP Puri sells 300,000 shares for $54.7M across 3 transactions; stock down 16.6% from 52-week high

Puri Ajay K, EVP of Worldwide Field Ops, executed 3 separate sales totaling 300,000 shares for $54,676,139.70 at a blended average price of $182.25 on 2026-03-18, reducing his holdings by 9.0% to 3,018,547 shares. The sales occurred when NVDA trades at $172.70, a 16.6% discount from the 52-week high of $207.04 and down 8.1% over the past 30 days. Puri's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 42.86%, suggesting modest predictive value; his same-ticker history at NVDA includes 5 prior trades with no measurable 90-day outcomes yet, so no pattern can be established at this specific security. The magnitude of this divestiture—$54.7M in a single day—signals a material reduction in his exposure to the company, warranting investor attention to any underlying signals driving this execution.

EVP Puri sells 300,000 NVDA shares for $54.8M at $182.52 blended average; retains 3.32M shares.

Ajay K Puri, EVP of Worldwide Field Ops, executed 2 separate sales totaling 300,000 shares for $54,756,043.64 on 2026-03-10 at a blended average price of $182.52. This represents an 8.3% reduction from his pre-transaction holdings of 3.62M shares. The sales occurred 3.5 points below the current price of $186.03 and at levels 10.2% below the 52-week high of $207.04, placing the transaction in the upper-middle range of recent price action. Puri's cross-ticker track record shows a 37.50% well-timed rate on prior sells (20 prior sales with average 90-day return of -7.1%), while his NVDA-specific history across 5 prior trades shows 0 of 1 measurable 90-day outcomes were well-timed. The substantial scale of this transaction ($54.8M in proceeds) and the executive's retention of 3.32M shares suggest a large but not complete reduction of holdings.

NVDA EVP Ajay K. Puri sold 200,000 shares at $180.04 (Jan 21) for $36.0M; now down -9.4% from 52-week high.

Puri, EVP of Worldwide Field Ops, sold 200,000 shares at $180.04, reducing his holdings from 3.82M to 3.62M shares (a -5.2% reduction). At the current price of $187.67, the stock has recovered 4.2% since the sale, though it remains 9.4% below its 52-week high of $207.04. His cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of -7.1% on prior sells with a 37.50% well-timed rate, but at NVDA specifically, his prior two measurable sales (both on 2025-06-25) resulted in positive 90-day returns of +16.1% and +17.0%, indicating he sold before subsequent stock appreciation at this ticker. The stock itself is trading at a P/E of 46.00 with annual revenue growth of +114.2%, suggesting elevated valuation relative to historical norms. This sale occurred during a period of significant company momentum but does not necessarily signal a change in fundamental outlook given the magnitude of his remaining 3.62M share position.

NVDA EVP Puri sells 200,000 shares ($37.6M) at $187.82 avg; holds 3.82M post-sale.

Puri Ajay K, EVP of Worldwide Field Ops at NVIDIA, executed 3 separate sales totaling 200,000 shares for $37,563,619.37 on 2026-01-07, reducing his stake from 4.02M to 3.82M shares (-5.0%). The blended transaction price of $187.82 sits above the current price of $184.86, though still -10.7% from the 52-week high of $207.04. His same-ticker history at NVDA shows 5 prior sells (all on 2025-06-25), none of which were well-timed at the 90-day mark—each saw the stock rise 12.4% to 15.3% in the 30 days following those sales. His broader cross-ticker track record (16 prior sells) carries a 37.50% well-timed rate with an average 90-day return of -7.1%, below the recent same-ticker pattern. The sale occurs at a valuation multiple (P/E 45.31) significantly elevated on the back of 114.2% annual revenue growth and strong fundamentals ($57.0B quarterly revenue, $31.9B net income).

EVP Puri sells 168,195 shares at $150.51–$154.32 for $25.7M; all 5 prior NVDA sales were well-timed 90d (declines of -14.4% to -17.6%).

EVP Ajay K Puri executed 5 separate sales totaling 168,195 shares for $25,673,039.83 on 2025-06-25, reducing holdings by 4.0% to 4,018,547 shares. His prior transaction history at NVDA is striking: across 5 prior sells (all in January 2025), the 90-day post-sale performance ranged from -14.4% to -17.6%, meaning all 5 were well-timed exits before subsequent declines. His cross-ticker track record shows a 54.55% 90-day well-timed rate with -18.1% average 90-day return after sells. The current stock price of $157.75 is at the 52-week high (+0.0%) and up 43.8% over 90 days, yet Puri's historical execution pattern—particularly the perfect timing of all 5 prior NVDA exits—suggests consistent sensitivity to sell moments. The recurring pattern of well-timed exits at this ticker warrants investor attention to whether fundamental or valuation conditions are driving the decision.

EVP Puri sells 36,695 NVDA shares for $5,544,783.26 across 6 transactions Jan 6-7; post-sale stake remains 3,902,655 shares

Ajay K Puri, EVP Worldwide Field Ops, executed 6 separate sales totaling 36,695 shares for $5,544,783.26 between January 6–7, 2025, at prices ranging from $150.40 to $152.50 (blended average $151.10). This represents a net reduction of 0.9% versus his pre-transaction holdings of 3,939,350 shares, leaving him with 3,902,655 shares post-transaction. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day average return of +4.1% after his 5 prior sales across all tickers, with 0 of those sales meeting the well-timed threshold; at NVDA specifically, all 5 prior sales from July 2024 show positive 90-day returns (ranging 2.6% to 5.5%), indicating he has consistently sold before subsequent rallies. The transaction occurs after NVDA has reached $152.02 (within the 52-week range of $48.00–$149.43, now 6.2% below the 52-week high of $149.43) and at a company trading at a P/E of 54.31 with a $3,431.3B market cap and $35.1B in latest quarterly revenue. The pattern of non-well-timed prior sales suggests this executive has not demonstrated precision in timing exits from his largest holding.

EVP Ajay Puri sells 100,110 shares at avg $130.10; retains 3.94M shares post-sale

Ajay Puri, EVP of Worldwide Field Operations at NVIDIA, executed 5 separate sales totaling 100,110 shares for $13,023,949.12 across a range of prices from $127.76 to $131.40 on 2024-07-12. The blended average sale price was $130.10. This represents a 2.5% reduction in his holdings, bringing his post-transaction position to 3,939,350 shares. The stock's 52-week range is $40.33–$135.58, and the current price of $128.44 is 5.3% below the 52-week high, with 90-day performance at +46.9%. Given NVIDIA's exceptional fundamentals—annual revenue growth of +125.8%, a P/E of 7.42, and a net income of $14.9B on $26.0B in revenue—this modest portfolio adjustment by a senior executive during strong stock momentum warrants investor attention to confirm whether additional context or scheduled trading plans underlie the transaction.
