Quantum computing stocks soared Thursday after media reports emerged that the US government is planning to acquire equity stakes in these companies, and in turn, offering them federal funding to support their growth and innovation.
Shares of quantum computing companies like IonQ (NYSE:IONQ), Rigetti Computing (Nasdaq:RGTI), D-Wave Quantum (NYSE:QBTS), and Quantum Computing (Nasdaq:QUBT) significantly gained on the reports. Companies like Atom Computing could also be considering an arrangement with the Trump Administration for equity sale.
