More than 100,000 metric tons of copper stuck at the closed First Quantum mine in Panama do not currently pose an environmental risk, Panama's president Jose Raul Mulino said on Thursday.
QMCO's new parallel file system client for its Myriad all-flash file system is set to maximize NVIDIA GPUDirect Storage capability and power AI/ML models.
The quantum computing industry is emerging as one of the most dynamic investment frontiers, driven by surging interest from both commercial and government sectors.
This year has been pretty good for tech stocks, including well-known tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon. However, 2024 has also been a good year for many companies that operate in the artificial intelligence sector, such as Nvidia and Broadcom.
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.

The WisdomTree India Earnings Fund ETF is David Johnson's top 2025 strong buy idea due to its portfolio of profitable Indian companies, benefiting from favorable demographics and U.S.-India relations.
Quantum computing represents massive opportunities if the company involved can be the first to market with a feasible device. Alphabet (GOOG -0.53%) (GOOGL -0.63%) seems to be on that track, as a chip produced by its Google subsidiary just posted an unbelievable score on a benchmark test.
Google's Willow quantum chip, with 105 qubits, enhances AI and quantum applications, boosting sentiment. Despite competitors IBM (156 qubits) and Microsoft (topological qubits), Google leads when combined with AI capabilities. Quantum gains remain distant, with commercial viability post-2035. Market optimism overestimates short-term impact; sentiment-driven volatility and R&D costs could pressure margins and valuation. My valuation, assuming a 12.5% revenue CAGR and 40% EBITDA margin by 2034, indicates a 240% upside (13% CAGR). With strong management and innovation, I maintain a Buy rating.
Shares of Quantum Computing (QUBT), or QCi, blasted off Tuesday after the integrated photonics and quantum optics firm announced that it had received a contract from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center for its imaging technology.
Alphabet Inc./Google introduced its new quantum computing chip, Willow, earlier this month, highlighting a step in the right direction but far from its destination: a market-ready product. Quantum computing continues to generate too many errors to be useful today or even in a year, and hence, excitement over its commercial viability, in our opinion, is premature. Quantum computing stocks such as IONQ, ARQQ, BBAI, RGTI, QBTS, and QUBT are skyrocketing on the one-month chart, offering windows to play on the hype, but we expect their outperformance to moderate once reality meets expectations.
In today's video, I discuss recent updates affecting Nvidia (NVDA -2.62%) and Alphabet (GOOGL 0.14%) (GOOG 0.13%). To learn more, check out the short video, consider subscribing, and click the special offer link below.
Alphabet has continued to surge higher since last week following news about its Willow quantum computing chip. The stock's recent jump higher has taken it back to new all-time highs. Since the Willow chip news from Google, smaller companies focused on quantum computing have skyrocketed. During bull markets, you often see short bursts higher like this in speculative industries due to the "FOMO" trade (fear of missing out), and they often end in tears.
