Rigetti stock slips after 108-qubit quantum system delay — what to watch before Monday

New York, January 11, 2026, 12:09 EST — The market has closed. Rigetti Computing (RGTI) shares dropped 2.1% Friday following an update on the timeline for its upcoming 108-qubit system.

The company announced a revised timeline for its 108-qubit quantum system, Cepheus-1-108Q, now targeting general availability by the end of Q1 2026. https://www.investing.com/equities/rigetti-computing-inc-historical-data https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/01/09/3216043/0/en/Rigetti-Computing-Provides-Update-on-108-Qubit-System.html Timing is crucial since quantum stocks often hinge on technical milestones and delivery timelines just as much as actual revenue.

D-Wave Quantum stock jumps nearly 10% as options bets build ahead of CES 2026

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 14:02 EST — Regular session Shares of D-Wave Quantum Inc. (QBTS) rose nearly 10% on Monday, lifting the quantum-computing stock back toward $31 as traders tracked an uptick in options activity ahead of this week’s CES events. The rally matters because QBTS has become a bellwether for risk appetite in the thinly traded “quantum” corner of the market, where sentiment can turn on conference demos and headlines more quickly than on quarterly fundamentals. With CES days away, investors are watching for any customer wins, partnerships or product-readout details that can be tied to revenue, not

D-Wave Quantum stock jumps 8% before the bell as CES 2026 puts quantum back on traders’ radar

NEW YORK, January 5, 2026, 07:43 ET — Premarket Shares of D-Wave Quantum Inc climbed 7.6% to $28.13 in premarket trading on Monday, after finishing Friday at about $26.15.

The timing matters because quantum-computing names have become a high-volatility corner of the market, with sharp moves often driven by sentiment and risk appetite rather than near-term fundamentals.
