A look at quantum computing stocks: IONQ, GOOG, and MSFT

A look at quantum computing stocks: IONQ, GOOG, and MSFT

IonQ just hit 99.99% accuracy in a standard quantum computing fidelity test. They achieved this using trapped ion technology, which trades speed for higher accuracy. They plan to build a 256-qubit system this year and scale to millions of qubits by 2030. Alphabet and Microsoft are taking a different route with superconducting tech. It's slightly less accurate but much faster. Google recently published a paper saying they've developed an algorithm that could break current crypto blockchain encryption by 2029. Microsoft has been quieter, but their Marjorana 1 quantum computer is already being used in chemistry for drug discovery. Holding a mix of a pure-play quantum stock like IonQ along with big tech companies seems like a reasonable way to get exposure to the space.

Nice way to play it. IonQ is the high-risk high-reward bet, while Google and Microsoft give you diversified exposure with real businesses backing it. Balanced approach makes sense.
