Rigetti Computing, a leading player in the nascent quantum computing industry, saw its stock price plummet 5.04% during intraday trading on Friday. The decline comes as investors grapple with the company's potential for future success amid the challenges of commercializing quantum computing technology.
Quantum computing has been touted as a potential game-changer, able to solve complex problems exponentially faster than traditional computers. However, as highlighted in a recent analysis, the technology remains in the early research and development stage, with widespread commercial application still years or even decades away.
Rigetti Computing has positioned itself as a "picks-and-shovels" play in the quantum computing revolution, offering quantum processors and cloud-based access to its quantum computing infrastructure. While the company's technology is seen as promising, concerns persist over its financial performance and the long road ahead to profitability.
