Nvidia (NVDA.US) shares rose more than 5% after Jefferies maintained a Buy rating and lifted its price target on the semiconductor stock to $854 from $740. "We see NVDA as a major beneficiary of the 4th Tectonic Shift in Computing, in which parallel processing captures share in the computing market," Jefferies' Mark Lipacis said. "We think NVDA's decade-long investment in CUDA has resulted in a multi-year competitive advantage." Company's chief financial officer, Colette Kress told Lipacis that it was possible for the company to break out software sales as a revenue line item once it becomes a meaningful portion of the business. Nvidia also expects that its Arm acquisition will close in the early part of 2022.
