Context
What happened: A trust linked to Rep. Ro Khanna's wife sold Nvidia shares near their peak, weeks before a scandal involving CEO Jensen Huang sent the stock plunging and led to his ouster. President Trump also sold Nvidia stock about two weeks before Khanna.
Key numbers: The trust sold $NVDA on Sept. 4 and Oct. 7, each valued at $1,001 to $15,000.
Why it matters: Khanna's committee assignments touch the issues at the center of the scandal, and his office denies inside knowledge played any role. Nvidia's board, the Justice Department, and the FBI have launched investigations.
