Shares of Rigetti Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ:RGTI) tumbled by 11.06 percent on Friday, ending the week at $8.93 each as investor sentiment was still weighed by Nvidia Corp. CEO Jensen Huang’s recent statement that the practical use of quantum computers is still 15 to 30 years away.

Rigetti Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ:RGTI), which for months, has been riding the booming AI sector, suffered the setback as investors recalibrated their expectations for the timeline of quantum computing advancements.

Separately, AXS Investments CEO Greg Bassuk was quoted as saying in a report that quantum computing stocks’ valuations have “become a bit lofty” and that he was not surprised by the stock price’s correction.

“Broad consensus has long been that quantum computing’s mass appeal is years away so there is no real news underpinning today’s negative news,” he added.

Overall, RGTI ranks 3rd on our list of companies mirroring Wall Street downturn. While we acknowledge the potential of RGTI as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.
