Quantum computing firm D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has broken through the 50% threshold—meaning that shares have lost more than half of their value year-to-date (YTD) in 2026—leaving investors wondering just how much farther down the bottom may be. Indeed, the last time QBTS stock traded below $14 per share was in May 2025, after which shares surged to more than triple that by October.
For all of the reasons investors may be concerned about the company's selloff, a lower share price for D-Wave may have one potential advantage. However, any future gains would mean a larger percentage increase compared to gains of the same absolute value at a higher share price.
