Quantum Computing Stocks: IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave and QUBT Slide Into Year-End—What to Watch Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:45 p.m. ET — Market closed (Weekend). Quantum computing stocks are heading into the final trading week of the year with a familiar mix of promise and turbulence—exactly the kind of setup that can amplify both opportunity and risk when liquidity is thin. In the most recent regular session (Friday), several of the best-known “pure-play” quantum names posted sharp declines even as the broader U.S. market largely drifted in quiet, post-holiday trade. IonQ (IONQ) finished at $46.00, down about 7.6%. Rigetti Computing (RGTI) closed at $22.38, down roughly 8.6%. D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) ended at $25.29,

The backdrop is bullish on paper: the S&P 500 is hovering near a major psychological marker, and the Nasdaq has posted another strong year. But the tone beneath the surface is evolving.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:29 p.m. ET — Market closed Wall Street is shut for the weekend, but AI stocks are not taking a break in the headlines. With the S&P 500 hovering near record territory after a quiet, low-volume post-Christmas session, investors are heading into the final trading days of 2025 weighing two powerful—and conflicting—narratives: the continued buildout of AI infrastructure that keeps lifting chip and cloud leaders, and a growing drumbeat of skepticism about valuation, deal structures, and how the AI boom is being financed.

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds Near $88,000 as U.S. Stock Market Closed; ETF Outflows and Holiday Liquidity Keep Traders on Watch

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:18 p.m. ET — U.S. stock market closed Bitcoin (BTC) traded around $87,856 on Sunday afternoon in New York, holding inside a tight band after a holiday week defined by thinning liquidity and renewed attention on U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETF flows.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:19 p.m. ET — U.S. stock market closed (Weekend) Global stock markets are heading into the final full trading week of 2025 with a familiar mix of late-December ingredients: thin liquidity, year-end portfolio reshuffles, and a powerful “risk-on” narrative built around easing inflation pressures and the market’s expectation that the Federal Reserve will cut rates again in 2026. For U.S. investors, the cash equity market is closed today for the weekend, with attention shifting to when index futures reopen later Sunday and how global cross-asset signals—oil, the U.S. dollar, and record-setting precious metals—set up Monday’s

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:15 p.m. ET — Market Closed (Weekend) Wall Street is closed Sunday, giving investors a brief pause after a sleepy post-Christmas session that still left the major U.S. stock indexes parked near record territory — and on track to finish 2025 with strong double-digit gains.

With liquidity often thin at year-end, headlines can move markets more than usual — and traders will be watching for signs that the “Santa Claus rally” continues, as well as fresh clues on the Federal

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:19 p.m. ET — Market closed With U.S. stock exchanges shut for the weekend, investors are heading into the final three trading sessions of 2025 watching one big question: does the year-end bid extend into the “Santa Claus rally” window—or does thin holiday liquidity turn routine headlines into outsized moves for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)?

Apple stock price ends week higher as Dow hits 50,000; jobs and CPI loom next

7 February 2026
New York, Feb 7, 2026, 08:51 EST — Market closed. Apple shares ended Friday higher, closing up 0.8% at $278.12. The stock eased 0.3% after hours to $277.25 ahead of Monday’s reopening.

That matters for Apple because it sits in both camps — a heavyweight in the Dow and a bellwether growth stock — just as the next set of U.S. data may reset bets on interest-rate
