Quantum Stocks Regetti Computing, IonQ, D-Wave Poised To Open Higher After Nvidia CEO Comments Drove Huge Losses
Quantum Stocks Regetti Computing, IonQ, D-Wave Poised To Open Higher After Nvidia CEO Comments Drove Huge Losses
Quantum computing stocks like Rigetti Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ:RGTI) and IonQ, Inc. (NYSE:IONQ) were clobbered Wednesday following comments from NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang suggesting the technology is decades away from practical use.
像Rigetti Computing, Inc.(纳斯达克:RGTI)和IonQ, Inc.(纽交所:IONQ)等量子计算股票在周三遭遇重创,此前英伟达公司(纳斯达克:NVDA)首席执行官黄仁勋表示该技术距离实际应用还有数十年的时间。
What To Know: Huang commented on the future of quantum computing at an investor event on Tuesday sending quantum stocks plunging in after-hours trading.
亮点:黄仁勋在周二的投资者活动中评论了量子计算的未来,导致量子股票在盘后交易中大幅下跌。
"If you kind of said 15 years for very useful quantum computers, that would probably be on the early side. If you said 30, it's probably on the late side," Huang said. "If you picked 20, I think a whole bunch of us would believe it."
黄仁勋表示:“如果你认为非常实用的量子计算机需要15年,那可能是早期。如果你认为需要30年,那可能是晚期。”他还说:“如果你选择20年,我想我们大家都会信服。”
Following Huang's comments, quantum stocks plummeted further on Wednesday with Rigetti Computing stock closing down 43.8%, D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE:QBTS) down 36% and IonQ shares ending the session down by 39%.
在黄仁勋的评论之后,量子股票在周三进一步暴跌,Rigetti Computing股票收盘下跌43.8%,D-Wave Quantum Inc.(纽交所:QBTS)下跌36%,IonQ股票结束时下跌39%。
Expert Ideas: Some experts have suggested that Huang may have had ulterior motives behind his comments on quantum computing's long-term outlook.
专家观点:一些专家表示,黄仁勋对量子计算长期前景的评论可能别有用心。
"Any dollar chasing quantum computing stocks is not chasing AI stocks," said Thomas Hayes, chairman of Great Hill Capital, per Reuters.
据路透社报道,Great Hill Capital董事长Thomas Hayes表示:"追逐量子计算股票的每一美元都没有追逐人工智能股票。"
"Jensen threw a wet blanket on the quantum story and did everything he could to sell the AI story. It's that simple," Hayes added.
"黄仁勋让量子故事蒙上阴影,并尽一切可能去推销人工智能故事。这就是简单的事实,"Hayes补充道。
Another analyst echoed similar sentiments on quantum computing as a potential threat to Nvidia's dominance: Quantum computing "will be disruptive to parts of the classical compute business, of which Nvidia is a chief beneficiary," Craig-Hallum analyst Richard Shannon said, per Reuters.
另一位分析师表达了对量子计算作为英伟达主导地位潜在威胁的相似看法:Craig-Hallum分析师Richard Shannon表示,量子计算"将在某些经典计算业务中带来颠覆,而英伟达是主要受益者之一,"据路透社报道。
CEO Fires Back: D-Wave Quantum CEO Alan Baratz also criticized Huang for his comments on the timeline for achieving practical quantum computing, saying the Nvidia CEO is "dead wrong." Baratz said D-Wave's quantum computers are already in commercial use by major companies including Mastercard.
首席执行官反击:D-Wave量子首席执行官艾伦·巴拉特也批评黄仁勋对实现实用量子计算时间表的评论,称英伟达首席执行官"完全错误"。巴拉特表示,D-Wave的量子计算机已经被包括万事达在内的主要公司商业使用。
"Not 30 years from now, not 20 years from now, not 15 years from now," he said, adding, "But right now today."
"不是30年后,不是20年后,不是15年后,"他说,并补充道,"而是现在就可以。"
Poised To Recover: Quantum stocks look poised to open higher Friday (after Thursday's national day of mourning for President Jimmy Carter and the U.S. markets are closed) after recovering slightly in Wednesday's after-hours session. D-Wave Quantum rose 6.89%, Rigetti Computing gained 2.89% and IonQ gained 5.92% after Wednesday's closing bell.
准备反弹:量子股票预计将在周五开盘上涨(在周四总统吉米·卡特的全国哀悼日之后,美国市场休市),在周三的盘后交易中略有回升。D-Wave量子上涨6.89%,Rigetti Computing上涨2.89%,IonQ上涨5.92%,均在周三收盘后。
