Expectations for profitability in quantum computing is likely to extend several years beyond 2030.<\/p>\n

IBM surged recently after the United States Department of Commerce announced approximately US$2 billion of quantum support across multiple firms, with IBM receiving the largest allocation: a proposed US$1 billion award, matched with another US$1 billion from IBM itself. <\/p>\n

The initiative will establish America\u2019s first dedicated quantum wafer foundry. Recent funding and policy announcements show capital spreading across multiple architectures.<\/p>\n

There is an ETF that tracks the sector (QTUM), but after looking through it, it\u2019s not even close to a pure play. The two stocks to follow right now are D-Wave (QBTS) and Rigetti (RGTI). The chart shows in percentage terms, the sector is on fire. <\/p>\n

Governments are effectively creating a national quantum ecosystem \u2014 hardware, foundries, software, cybersecurity, communications, and supply chains. The U.S. appears to be behind the curve, so more is likely coming.<\/p>\n

\"\"BermanMay25.2 <\/p>\n

France just announced more than \u20ac1B for its quantum ecosystem, highlighting a growing race among major economies for technological sovereignty. China built an early lead through large state-driven funding. Europe steadily expanded through coordinated programs.<\/p>\n

Quantum potentially attacks trillion-dollar bottlenecks. Potential uses include drug discovery, materials science, battery optimization, logistics optimization, portfolio optimization, cryptography and cybersecurity, climate and weather simulations. <\/p>\n

Quantum may not improve a calculation by 10 per cent. For some problems, it may reduce years into minutes.<\/p>\n

\"\"BermanMay25.3 <\/p>\n

Investors should expect a long bumpy road ahead, but with deep support for the technology from governments initially until we start to see the commercial markets develop. For me, it means buy the dips and trade the breakouts.<\/p>\n
