Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Just Delivered Terrible News for Quantum Computing Stocks

Of all the futuristic technologies being explored by big technology companies and start-ups, quantum computing is one of the most exciting. There are some types of computational problems that are simply impossible for even the world's most powerful supercomputer to solve. If you could pool all the traditional computing power in use today around the world, some of these calculations would take billions, trillions, or quadrillions of years to complete.Quantum computing offers a potential solution. The qubits that comprise a quantum computer are fuzzy. They're not 0 or 1 like a traditional bit, but instead some combination of those two states. This quantum strangeness can be harnessed to perform certain computations exponentially faster than a traditional supercomputer.Hype surrounding quantum computing has pushed up quantum computing stocks over the past few months. Shares of IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) and Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ: RGTI) rocketed higher in the final months of 2024, delivering incredible gains for investors.Continue readingWeiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei MotleyFool Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei MotleyFool
