D-Wave (NYSE: QBTS) draws focus as Trump sets 2028 quantum goal

D-Wave (NYSE: QBTS) draws focus as Trump sets 2028 quantum goal

D-Wave Quantum shares climbed in New York on Tuesday. Traders pointed to a new order from U.S. President Donald Trump for a quicker federal move on quantum tech, which sent investors back to the stock. The name has been one of the sector’s most volatile pure plays. The stock gained 3.1% to trade at $25.23 in midday action, after hitting a session high of $26.66. Volume was strong, with about 27 million shares moving. Invesco QQQ Trust, a large-cap tech proxy, dropped roughly 3.0%.

IonQ stock trades ahead of holiday with eyes on products and partnerships

IonQ shares picked up 3.4% to end at $56.55 Thursday, heading into the long U.S. market weekend with some gains. After hours, the price edged down to $56.00. Still, the stock ended the week below last Friday’s close at $57.85. No Friday trading means no tape to clear things up right now. NYSE put Juneteenth National Independence Day on its list of market holidays for Friday, June 19, 2026. Standard NYSE sessions are still set for 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern on usual days.

IonQ Stock Near $58: $100 Analyst Target Meets Quantum Valuation Risk

IonQ Stock Near $58: $100 Analyst Target Meets Quantum Valuation Risk

IonQ stock is entering the new week with investors split between enthusiasm for quantum computing and caution over valuation. Shares finished Friday at $57.85, down 0.24%, after trading between $56.18 and $60.18 on volume of about 24.7 million shares, according to market data. The move leaves IonQ with a market capitalization near $21.5 billion, a size that already prices in years of rapid growth for a company still building commercial scale. The immediate support for the stock is Wall Street’s still-constructive view. Benzinga’s analyst tracker lists a Buy consensus, a $64.69 consensus price target, and Rosenblatt’s June 11 maintained Buy rating with a $100 target as the latest rating action. MarketBeat, meanwhile, reported an average “Moderate Buy” rating from 17 analysts, with one sell, six hold and ten buy ratings, and an average 12-month target of about $68.63.

Quantum Shares Snap Back as IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave Lose Steam

Quantum Shares Snap Back as IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave Lose Steam

Quantum computing names finished the week with volatile trading and recent gains still in focus. IonQ was last at $57.85, off 0.3%. Rigetti Computing gained 1.7% to $20.98. D-Wave Quantum slipped 2.0% to $23.37 and Quantum Computing Inc. was up 0.2% at $9.93. The group had rallied after a spring run-up—The Motley Fool said Friday IonQ, Rigetti and D-Wave were still up at least 50% from the end of March, even after some weakness this week. Stocks in the sector got a lift not from earnings, but from a shift in government policy. On May 21, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced it had signed nine letters of intent for $2.013 billion in planned CHIPS and Science Act incentives for quantum companies. IBM gets $1 billion, GlobalFoundries $375 million, D-Wave is set to receive $100 million, and Rigetti up to $100 million. These incentives target utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers, which use qubits—known for being error-prone, but essential for scalable systems. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick called the investments the start of “a new era of American innovation.” That line landed with investors who have wanted to see more political support for the industry.

D-Wave Quantum Drops Almost 9% As QBTS Grabs Attention Again

D-Wave Quantum Drops Almost 9% As QBTS Grabs Attention Again

D-Wave Quantum dropped 8.94% Tuesday to finish at $23.52. Shares moved between $22.35 and $26.66 during the session. The slide came as tech stocks with speculation risk were hit, and other quantum stocks fell too. D-Wave settled at $23.40 in after-hours trade, little changed from the close. D-Wave’s slide caught attention, with investors used to trading the quantum stock on hopes for future government deals and tech progress, not just revenue numbers. Tuesday’s session dented that longer-term focus as the Nasdaq dropped 0.97% and the S&P 500 slipped 0.26%. The Dow closed up 0.17%.

Rigetti Drops 14% With Quantum Names Hit in Tech Selloff

Rigetti Drops 14% With Quantum Names Hit in Tech Selloff

Rigetti Computing shares dropped over 14% Tuesday, wiping out gains after new comments from Bernstein. The stock was last at $18.64, down $3.13, after reaching $22.57 earlier. Investors pulled back from high-growth tech names. Rigetti is now one of the more liquid ways to trade quantum computing, a young tech that works with qubits to tackle problems that regular computers can’t handle. That makes the shares vulnerable if investors back off speculative tech.

IonQ Jumps as Quantum IPO Rush Sets Wall Street Benchmark

IonQ Jumps as Quantum IPO Rush Sets Wall Street Benchmark

IonQ stock rose Monday, last trading up 10.5% at $62.77. Shares moved between $56.66 and $64.90 during the day. That takes the quantum-computing firm's market cap to about $23.3 billion. The move gets attention now because there’s a new public-market comp for the quantum business. Quantinuum, the Honeywell quantum arm, pulled in $1.68 billion in a U.S. IPO last week. Shares started trading on Nasdaq as QNT, putting another listed name in quantum—still a thin field.

Rigetti Shares Drop Hard for the Week: What RGTI Eyes Next

Rigetti Shares Drop Hard for the Week: What RGTI Eyes Next

Rigetti Computing stock is set to reopen Monday under pressure after losing almost 20% last week. The quantum-computing name ended Friday at $20.68, dropping 14.4% just in that session, from $25.54 the week before. Investors moved out of pricey tech as the week wrapped up. The timing is key here. With no weekend trading to change things up, Friday saw investors get more cautious on long-duration tech stocks. These are the companies with profits way out in the future, which take a bigger hit when rate expectations move up.

IonQ Stock Slides as Quantinuum’s $17.6 Billion Debut Puts Quantum Bets on the Spot

IonQ Stock Slides as Quantinuum’s $17.6 Billion Debut Puts Quantum Bets on the Spot

IonQ shares fell on Thursday as Quantinuum’s strong Nasdaq debut gave investors a new yardstick for valuing quantum-computing stocks, an early-stage corner of technology that has drawn big money but still has to prove broad commercial demand. The move mattered because Quantinuum’s initial public offering, or IPO — a company’s first sale of shares to public investors — put a public price on one of IonQ’s closest high-profile rivals. IonQ, at just under $25 billion in market value, still trades above Quantinuum’s debut valuation, even after Thursday’s decline.

Rigetti Computing Stock Jumps Before RGTI Earnings as Quantum Revenue Test Hits Tonight

Rigetti Shares Fall Premarket With Fresh Nasdaq Test for Quantum

Rigetti Computing shares fell before Thursday’s Nasdaq open, trading at $24.10, down $2.79, or about 10.4%, from the previous close. Investors were getting ready for another public-market test for the quantum-computing trade. Quantum stocks are a small and choppy part of tech these days. The sector moves more on government support, milestones from research labs and bets on qubit hardware than on present earnings. Investors are looking for breakthroughs that could let quantum machines solve tasks that classical computers can’t handle yet.

Quantum computing stocks face a holiday week after IonQ stake filing and a Rigetti downgrade

IonQ Stock Jumped Again. A Giant Quantum IPO Is Putting the Trade on Trial

IonQ Inc. shares closed up 3.1% at $71.40 on Tuesday, then gave back 1.3% after hours to $70.45, as traders kept bidding around the quantum-computing theme ahead of a large new listing in the sector. The stock touched $72.63 during regular trading; volume was about 27.5 million shares. The move matters because IonQ, with a market value of roughly $26.5 billion, is one of the clearest public-market gauges for a technology still moving from laboratory promise to commercial proof. Quantum computing uses quantum bits, or qubits, to run some calculations in ways ordinary computers struggle to copy, but high error rates still limit many real-world uses.

D-Wave stock gains as quantum bets in Washington fuel new rally

D-Wave Quantum Inc. shares surged Thursday as traders piled back into quantum-computing names. The stock pushed higher, part of a shaky stretch for the sector, with investors eyeing any names with U.S. government support for the technology. The stock climbed 8.4% to $29.79 in New York, hitting an intraday high of $30.21 earlier. Around 34.6 million shares changed hands. The company was valued close to $11 billion.

Honeywell’s Quantum Offshoot Is Targeting $12.7 Billion In Public Debut

Honeywell’s Quantum Offshoot Is Targeting $12.7 Billion In Public Debut

Quantinuum, which is backed by Honeywell, is looking for a valuation up to $12.7 billion in its planned U.S. IPO. The quantum computing firm out of Broomfield, Colorado, set terms Monday for one of the sector’s biggest swings in public markets. Quantinuum is offering around 21.05 million shares, priced between $45 and $50, to try to bring in as much as $1.05 billion. The timing is key. Investors are piling into firms linked to strategic tech like AI infrastructure, defense, and quantum computing. Washington has started putting money into some of these areas directly. Last week, the Commerce Department said it sent out letters of intent for $2.013 billion in federal incentives spread across nine quantum companies and foundry projects.

IonQ Shares Pop In Quantum Move; U.S. Funds Go To Rival

IonQ Shares Pop In Quantum Move; U.S. Funds Go To Rival

IonQ Inc. stock jumped 12.24% to $58.89 at the close Thursday as quantum-computing names caught a bid after reports of new federal funding. That move topped the wider market, with the Dow up 0.55%, S&P 500 up 0.17%, and Nasdaq rising 0.09%. Commerce on Monday said it plans $2.013 billion in incentives for two U.S. quantum foundries and seven quantum-computing firms, focusing on “fault-tolerant” quantum systems that can still operate with errors. Quantum computers use qubits that hold multiple states. Companies named for the incentives include IBM, GlobalFoundries, Atom Computing, Diraq, D-Wave, Infleqtion, PsiQuantum, Quantinuum and Rigetti. IonQ was not on the list.

Dow Sets New High as Oil, Nvidia Unsettle Wall Street

Dow Jones finished at an all-time high Thursday, up 276.31 points, or 0.6%, to close at 50,285.66, as IBM surged. The broader market bounced back from morning declines as oil prices slipped. The S&P 500 was up 12.75 points, or 0.2%, to 7,445.72. Nasdaq Composite ended higher by 22.74 points, or 0.1%, at 26,293.10. Oil has been steering the market more than earnings. Brent crude inched above $109 before sliding 2.3% to finish at $102.58. The drop took some pressure off fears that rising energy costs would stoke inflation and drive up bond yields. When yields climb, stocks can lose their shine.

Quantum Stocks Surge on $2 Billion Play; IonQ Faces Next Hurdle

IonQ shares jumped about 8% in premarket trading Thursday, picking up steam during a wild period for one of the top pure-play quantum-computing names. The stock was quoted at $52.47 ahead of the U.S. market open, up $4.02 from where it closed Wednesday. Quantum stocks got a new policy push today after Reuters, citing the Wall Street Journal, said the Trump administration will hand out $2 billion in grants to nine quantum-computing firms. The U.S. is also taking equity stakes in some of the deals, according to the report. IBM, D-Wave Quantum, and Rigetti Computing are named as recipients, while IonQ did not appear on the list.

Xanadu Jumps 20% After Quantum Selloff, Filing Remains Over XNDU

Xanadu Quantum Technologies shares surged on Nasdaq Wednesday, with the stock rebounding after a tough May. The Class B shares traded between $11.70 and $14.68, and were recently quoted at $14.13, up $2.39, or 20.4%. XNDU has turned into a kind of bellwether for how the public market is taking to early-stage quantum stocks—lots of technology promises, not much revenue yet, and a share structure still working itself out after a blank-cheque merger. A SPAC, or special purpose acquisition company, is a listed shell company for taking another firm public via merger.

  • SpaceX IPO Sends LA Luxury Home Prices Higher
    June 29, 2026, 10:27 PM EDT. SpaceX's $85 billion IPO is driving a spike in demand for high-end homes in Los Angeles. The deal, which briefly pushed Elon Musk to trillionaire status, is set to create more than 4,000 new millionaires-about 400 of them with over $100 million each. That new wealth has buyers eyeing up luxury properties, especially around Manhattan Beach. Local supply is already tight, sending prices up. The same real estate buzz is playing out in South Texas around SpaceX's Starbase. A similar trend hit San Francisco, as AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI pumped up home prices above $2 million.
