Trump Seeks a Slice of the Quantum Pie: Stocks Rocket as Govt Eyes IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave Stakes

Citing Wall Street Journal sources, U.S. officials are now treating commercial quantum computing as a strategic sector. Under Secretary Gina Raimondo’s reorganized Chips R&D Office, the Commerce Department is reportedly willing to “go deep” in quantum startups – becoming shareholders in exchange for government R&D grantsreuters.comcm.asiae.co.kr. This extends Trump’s “government-as-shareholder” industrial policy in tech; for example, in August the administration agreed to convert nearly $9 billion in CHIPS Act grants into a 10% equity stake in Intelreuters.comcm.asiae.co.kr. The quantum proposals would similarly tie about $10 million of support per company to a U.S. equity investmentreuters.comcm.asiae.co.kr. Commerce sources stress negotiations are ongoing and not finalized; a department spokeswoman noted it is “not currently negotiating” any deal, underscoring that terms could still changereuters.com.

Nasdaq’s Wild 48 Hours: Fed Jitters, Tech Tumbles & Surprise Rallies – Sept 23–24 Roundup

Wall Street’s bull run hit turbulence on Tuesday, Sept. 23, after Fed Chair Jerome Powell struck a balanced but cautious tone in his remarks. Speaking six days after the Fed’s first rate cut of 2025, Powell emphasized the “no risk-free path”forward – the central bank must tame inflation without unduly harming the now-weakening job market. Notably, he warned that equity valuations appeared “fairly highly valued,” a signal that the recent surge in stocks may have outpaced fundamentals. This lack of a clear green light on further rate relief rattled investors who had been banking on more easy money. Powell “left the door open for another rate cut” but gave “really no hint of when and how much” it might be, explained Peter Cardillo of Spartan Capital. That ambiguity “began to sell off” the overheated market, which was “ripe for some sort of a pullback,” Cardillo noted.
