Nvidia Stock Warning: This NVDA Challenger Just Scored a Major Customer
Image of Jensen Huang by jamesonwu1972 via Shutterstock Nvidia (NVDA) shares inched down today, July 22, after FuriosaAI said it has landed LG as its first major customer. FuriosaAI is a startup based out of Seoul, South Korea that's committed to designing chips, which rival NVDA in terms of performance, efficiency, and cost effectiveness. More News from Barchart Despite today's decline, Nvidia stock is up nearly 95% versus its year-to-date low set in early April. Why Is FuriosaAI's Announcement Significant for Nvidia Stock? FuriosaAI's most advanced artificial intelligence chip dubbed 'RNGD' will power LG's 'Exaone' large-language models (LLMs), according to the startup's press release on Tuesday. It's a meaningful development for NVDA investors given it signals growing enterprise confidence in alternatives to Nvidia's GPUs. This public endorsement from a global technology giant could accelerate adoption of non-Nvidia solutions, especially in Asia's booming AI ecosystem. For Nvidia, it raises competitive pressure and questions about future market share, particularly as startups like FuriosaAI gain traction with high-profile clients. Note that the RNGD chip delivers 2.25x better performance per watt and offers a lower total cost of ownership compared to conventional graphics processing units. Is LG Choosing FuriosaAI a Reason to Sell NVDA Shares? Investors should note, however, that FuriosaAI's announcement is not a big enough reason to sell Nvidia shares especially since the Korean startup is privately held and so NVDA is not really in competition with it for institutional capital. In fact, Morgan Stanley analysts view NVDA stock as a 'top idea' heading into the AI darling's earnings print scheduled for the final week of August. The investment firm recommends sticking with Nvidia stock despite its monster run since April as it's 'expecting the pace of revenue and EPS upside to accelerate on the earnings report, driving compelling risk reward into the quarter.' Wall Street Has a Consensus 'Strong Buy' Rating on Nvidia Nvidia stock is worth owning at current levels because other Wall Street firms continue to see it as a core holding for 2025 as well.

LG's five-star OLED is close to perfection — and it's on sale for $700 off today
(Image credit: LG) There's no such thing as a perfect TV, but LG's newest OLED is pretty close. Right now, the 65-inch LG C5 is just $1,996 at Amazon. It's one of the best TV deals you'll find today, and if you're in the market for the sort of TV that will turn heads and dazzle a crowd, this is the one I'd recommend. I've spent the last decade testing and reviewing nearly every C Series OLED the brand has released, and the C5 is the best yet. Here's what you need to know. As the mid-range option in LG's 2025 OLED portfolio, the C5 represents the best option for the biggest slice of shoppers. This probably includes you! The C5 isn't as affordable as the entry-level B5 OLED, but it packs a prettier picture and its full list of features is longer. The C5 isn't quite as spectacular looking as the flagship LG G5 OLED, but you get a comparable set of features for a much, much lower price. This value proposition is one of the reasons why, in our LG C5 review, we awarded this TV with a perfect five-star rating. Performance-wise, here's what you're getting: perfect black levels, pixel-level dimming and phenomenal out-of-the-box color accuracy. The C5 delivers HDR highlight brightness well above 1,000 nits — that's eye-popping contrast that will have movies and shows looking real enough to touch. Its eye-popping contrast that will have movies and shows looking real enough to touch. I wouldn't be doing my job if I neglected to mention that the C5 is also overflowing with extra features and enhancements for gaming, streaming and more. As mentioned, you're getting nearly every feature that comes with LG's flagship OLED, and for most folks, that's plenty. The C5 supports 4K gaming up to 144Hz across all four of its HDMI 2.1-compatible inputs. LG's Game Optimizer offers fast, user-friendly options for tweaking your gaming experience on the fly. It supports Dolby Vision and comes with LG's webOS smart platform pre-installed. The C5 is on a crash course with our year-end round-ups of the best TVs of the year. It's even better with a sale tag attached to it. More from Tom's Guide
