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

Trump Administration’s Quantum Push 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.

IBM Stock Soars on Quantum Breakthrough and AI Revival – Key Updates (Sept 25, 2025)

IBM Stock Rockets on AI & Quantum Buzz – Analysts Split on What Comes Next

IBM’s long-term story hinges on its success in AI and cloud. If the company can continue delivering above-consensus results (it has a recent streak of ~6% EPS beats)techi.com and land more big AI deals, bulls see plenty of room to run.
