Quantum computing stocks have surged in 2024 as breakthroughs hint at a technological tipping point. Two pure-play quantum stocks offer contrasting paths to potentially massive returns. The next computing revolution may be closer than investors think.

IonQ also achieved high gate fidelities by surpassing 99.9% two-qubit gate fidelity on its barium platform, which leads to lower error rates. High gate fidelities will increase the reliability of quantum algorithms while lowering costs, eventually resulting in improved appeal for quantum computing technology for commercial use.

The company has filed documentation that paves the way for investors to sell the stock, as well as warrants to acquire shares.

Breakthroughs in quantum computing have shares of Alphabet and IonQ soaring as of late. One pocket of the artificial intelligence (AI) realm that is fetching a fair amount of attention right now is quantum computing. While there are many companies exploring quantum computing, only a finite number have made any measurable progress.
