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

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.
Quantum computing shares spike, traders eye Tuesday test

Quantum computing shares spike, traders eye Tuesday test

Quantum Computing Inc. faces a new test when trading resumes Tuesday. The stock surged ahead of the holiday weekend, part of a quantum sector rally sparked by U.S. government spending plans. Reuters did not list the company among funding recipients. The stock ended Friday at $12.31, up 90 cents on the day, a 7.89% jump. About 67.5 million shares changed hands. For the week, shares gained nearly 17% from last Friday’s $10.51 close. The Nasdaq Composite added just 0.5% over the same stretch.
Quantum Computing Stock Rises Ahead of Holiday; Tuesday in Focus

Quantum Computing Stock Rises Ahead of Holiday; Tuesday in Focus

Quantum Computing Inc. jumped after the holiday, picking up strong gains while traders moved into quantum computing stocks. Washington announced more than $2 billion in government funding for the sector, but Quantum Computing did not make the list of companies set to get those awards. This comes up now as the move seemed more like investors buying into the sector, not picking one company as the winner. Quantum computing works with qubits, which can approach problems differently than the 0-or-1 bits in normal computers. Some investors are betting federal funding can push quantum tech out of the lab and into commercial use faster.
AST SpaceMobile and Quantum Computing stocks now seen as Wall Street frontier bets

AST SpaceMobile and Quantum Computing stocks now seen as Wall Street frontier bets

Tech stocks AST SpaceMobile and Quantum Computing Inc. were sharply higher Friday, each catching more speculative flows. AST SpaceMobile jumped about 11% by late morning, while Quantum Computing Inc. gained close to 16%. Both stirred up bets in satellite-to-phone and quantum computing hardware. Timing is playing a role. Space stocks got a lift with buzz building about a potential SpaceX IPO. Defiance rolled out a leveraged ETF, aiming for 2x the daily move in AST SpaceMobile shares. Quantum stocks went higher too, boosted by headlines about fresh public funding in the U.S. and Europe.
Quantum computing stocks rally: IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave, QUBT prices jump as traders look to the week ahead

QUBT Moves After $2 Billion U.S. Quantum Push

Quantum Computing Inc. stock moved higher Thursday morning as traders piled into quantum-computing names. The gains came after the U.S. government said it would take equity stakes in multiple companies in the group. QUBT was last at $10.73, up $1.17, or roughly 12.2%, with volume around 16.0 million shares. Government action injected new interest into a section of the market long steered by excitement over potential more than earnings. Quantum computing, which taps quantum physics to handle problems standard computers can’t, is still early, but Washington’s support put attention on possible winners and those who could miss out.
Quantum Stocks With Growth Potential in April-May 2026: 4 Names Facing a May Reality Check

Quantum Stocks With Growth Potential in April-May 2026: 4 Names Facing a May Reality Check

Three quantum computing players have landed on public markets in recent months, and another five are eyeing listings before year-end. That’s turned up the heat on a slim roster of quantum stocks familiar to traders. Looking toward 2026, the main pure-play public names stayed the same: D-Wave Quantum, Rigetti Computing, IonQ, and Quantum Computing Inc. “There was so much appetite for quantum assets,” said Antoine Legault, VP of equity research at Wedbush Securities, in comments to the Wall Street Journal. May is crammed: IonQ drops Q1 results after the bell on May 6, Rigetti goes next on May 11, also after close. D-Wave takes its turn before the market opens May 12. All three drop numbers—revenues, bookings, cash—just as the sector braces for a fresh wave of investor conferences.
