Summary
$734 million of CoreWeave stock was sold by Chief Strategy Officer Brian Venturo in the second quarter, making the co-founder one of the biggest insider sellers tied to the AI supply chain.
7.24 million shares were unloaded as executives and investors used a sharp but volatile tech rally to cash out, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index surging 88% through June 30 on heavy AI-equipment demand.
More than $1 billion of CoreWeave shares has been sold by Venturo since the company's IPO under pre-arranged 10b5-1 plans, according to Washington Service data.
Eight of the top 10 insider sellers had links to AI beneficiaries, including Nvidia board member Mark Stevens, who sold more than $407 million, underscoring how broadly the boom is translating into insider selling.
