Quantum computing offers mind-boggling problem-solving potential. Here are four ways to buy quantum computing stocks.
The article from Kiplinger discusses four investment avenues in the burgeoning field of quantum computing, a technology that promises to revolutionize computing by solving complex problems much faster than current systems. First, investors can look into pure-play quantum computing companies like D-Wave Systems, which focuses on quantum annealing, and Rigetti Computing, known for its cloud-based quantum computing services. Second, there are diversified tech giants such as IBM, Google, and Microsoft, which are integrating quantum computing into their broader tech portfolios. Third, ETFs and mutual funds offer exposure to quantum computing through funds like the Defiance Quantum ETF (QTUM), which includes companies involved in quantum technology. Lastly, venture capital and private equity provide opportunities for those interested in early-stage investments in quantum startups, although this route is typically less accessible to retail investors due to high entry barriers and risk. The article emphasizes the high potential and speculative nature of these investments, highlighting the need for a long-term investment horizon given the technology's developmental stage.
