However, the author advises against buying, citing concerning financials with over $70 million in operating losses against minimal revenue. With commercial quantum computing likely years away, the stock carries high speculative risk and may plummet during market corrections." datetime: "2026-06-04T04:55:25.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/288666849.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288666849.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/288666849.md) generator: "portal-rs" --- # Should You Buy D-Wave Quantum Stock While It's Under $35? ## Key Points - D-Wave shares have surged alongside the broader market, boosted by Nvidia's new Ising AI models and a $100 million federal funding award. - Despite the stock rally, D-Wave's financials remain concerning, with just $24.6 million in revenue last year against an operating loss exceeding $70 million. - Commercial quantum computing likely years away, the stock carries significant speculative risk, and it may face steep declines in a market correction. - 10 stocks we like better than D-Wave Quantum › Quantum stocks are back, it seems, and **D-Wave Quantum** (NYSE: QBTS) is no exception. Shares of the quantum "pure play" are up 109% in the last two months. A broader market rally has helped -- the **S&P 500** is up 15.6% in the last month, the **Nasdaq Composite** is up 23.8% -- but some key catalysts have renewed investor faith in the sector. ***Will AI create the world's first trillionaire?** Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. **Continue »*** First, **Nvidia** announced Ising, a new family of open-source AI models designed to accelerate quantum computing research. And the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a new $2 billion quantum investment program. D-Wave will receive $100 million in federal funding. ## The stock is now sitting just shy of $30. Is now the time to buy? The catalysts are encouraging, certainly, but they don't fundamentally change the picture in my eyes. At present, D-Wave's financials aren't great to say the least: $12.5 million in sales over the last 12 months and a more than $100 million normalized loss during the same period. Image source: Getty Images. Despite this, the company's market cap is now north of $11 billion. There is a massive amount of faith baked into the stock price. That can work if D-Wave makes some serious leaps forward soon in the development of its technology, but it's likely real commercial quantum is many years -- maybe decades -- away. If, in that time, there is a major market correction, investors will flee speculative stocks like D-Wave, and its share price will plummet. I think there will be serious buying opportunities in the future, and I would avoid D-Wave right now. ## Should you buy stock in D-Wave Quantum right now?
