SoftBank has fully exited its Nvidia position, selling 32 million shares worth $5.8 billion to reallocate funds toward its AI expansion, especially its deepening partnership with OpenAI.

The firm described the divestment as part of an asset-monetization strategy designed to maintain financial discipline while fueling its next phase of AI-driven growth. Executives said the move ensures the company remains liquid and ready for major opportunities in the AI ecosystem.

SoftBank has recently expanded its holdings in other AI-related companies like Oracle and TSMC to bolster its position in the generative AI sector.
