Did Ro Khanna and his wife sell NVIDIA shares just before the spy scandal involving Jensen Huang broke out?

Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, who has advocated banning members of Congress from trading individual stocks, and his wife sold Nvidia shares around the time the chipmaker's stock reached record highs, according to financial disclosures tracked by Capitol Trades. This led to online speculation as to whether he had any information about Nvidia former CEO Jensen Huang's affair with Alice Huang, allegedly a spy.

Khanna is dead against Congress members trading stock and hence the rumors are flying high. But these are only rumors and online speculation.Khanna's wife made two Nvidia stock sales, each valued between $1,000 and $15,000, on September 4 and October 7, according to the disclosures.

Nvidia shares reached an all-time high on October 6, just a day before the second reported sale.The transactions came ahead of a sharp decline in Nvidia's share price this week after Huang's affairs were revealed.Khanna represents California's 17th Congressional District and has been among the lawmakers calling for restrictions on stock trading by members of Congress.
