Quantum computing stocks take a hit as Nvidia CEO predicts long road ahead
(Reuters) -Quantum computing stocks sank on Wednesday, pausing a year-long rally, after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the technology's practical use was likely two decades away. The long wait outlined by Huang for "very useful quantum computers" throws cold water on a sector that was already expected to spend millions more on the technology, which can only perform niche calculations so far. Rigetti Computing, D-Wave Quantum, Quantum Computing and IonQ all fell more than 35%.
