Person profile
Co-founder, president, and chief executive of NVIDIA
"Valued as of" is the effective date of the market closes, exchange rates, and filings inside the estimate. "Sources checked" is when the pipeline last verified those sources successfully. A weekend check can confirm a Friday valuation without inventing weekend movement.
As of September 4, 2026, Jensen Huang's estimated net worth is about $187.1B(187.1 billion US dollars). That places Jensen Huang at #7 among the people Net Worth Leader currently tracks.
This is an estimate of assets minus documented liabilities. It is not a cash balance, and many holdings may be restricted, pledged, illiquid, or difficult to value.
Jensen Huang co-founded NVIDIA in 1993 and has run it ever since, steering the graphics-chip designer into the dominant supplier of accelerated computing for artificial intelligence. The estimate values the shares he reports as beneficially owned, most of them held through trusts and family entities, at each NVIDIA close.
Huang kept a founder stake through NVIDIA's 1999 listing and several stock splits, most recently the 10-for-1 split of June 2024. He completed a prearranged sale program in 2025 and has since reported only small transactions and gifts, so the count is stable.
The estimate moves with NVIDIA's share price. Sales under future trading plans would appear in Forms 4 and reduce the count.
Jensen Huang's estimate rose mainly because NVIDIA Corporation shares increased from the prior comparable close.
A one-day estimate change is not the same as income, profit, or a realized gain or loss.

Liabilities without a documented value are never shown as zero; they are simply not included, and that limitation is part of source coverage below.
100.0% of this profile's modeled gross value is supported by Tier 1 or Tier 2 evidence (primary filings, official documents, licensed market data, or audited accounts). The profile carries a strong coverage label.
No meaningful range beyond the central estimate is supported for this profile, so only the central value is published. Unknown liabilities are not evidence that no liabilities exist. No personal liability is documented for this profile, so none is deducted.
The timeline runs from June 12, 2026 to September 4, 2026; the latest estimate is higher than the first point. Points before August 20, 2026 are labeled modeled reconstructions: today's reviewed ownership records applied to the closing prices of each earlier market date. Published history begins August 20, 2026 and grows one point per completed market date.
