D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has emerged as one of the most talked-about stocks in the quantum computing industry, a space investors are watching closely with anticipation. There are arguments to be made on both sides as to whether D-Wave is as revolutionary as some investors suspect; more bearish investors are likely to take the side of short sellers like Kerrisdale Capital.
One thing these debates about D-Wave often leave out, though, is how the company is positioned against other rivals in the quantum computing space. It is, in some ways, easiest to make a direct comparison against other (relatively) smaller firms like IonQ Inc. (NYSE: IONQ) and Rigetti Computing Inc. (NASDAQ: RGTI).
