IonQ (IONQ) stock rocketed higher Wednesday, fueled by blockbuster Q4 earnings: $61.89M revenue (429% YoY, 53% beat), making it the first public quantum company to exceed $100M in annual revenue.
D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) shares rallied after the company revealed jaw-dropping bookings acceleration: Q4 bookings surged 471% sequentially to $13.4M, with YTD 2026 bookings already exceeding $32.8M including a $20M FAU deal and $10M Fortune 100 QCaaS contract.
Rigetti Computing (RGTI) stock advanced on sector sympathy rather than any particular standalone catalyst, though the buyers can still point to Rigetti’s 108-qubit system debut and chiplet roadmap targeting 150+ qubits by end-2026 and 1,000+ by 2027.

Reddit’s r/stocks community flagged the broader quantum computing theme as up 8% today, calling it the top gainer on trending themes.
