Shares of Quantum Computing Inc (QUBT) dropped by 9.46% from $0.74 to $0.67 in the trading on Friday, October 27, 2023. The reason why QUBT is down today is due to the broader market's movement.

  • Market Sentiment: Investor sentiment had turned cautious in October as they analyzed earnings results from major U.S. companies and navigated a challenging bond market situation.
  • Performance of Key Companies Several influential companies faced challenges during the week, impacting market sentiment: Alphabet (Google's parent company) disappointed investors with its earnings, leading to a nearly 10% decline in its stock price for the week, marking its worst performance since November. Chevron experienced a more than 13% drop in its stock price for the week, the most significant weekly decline in over a year, following lower-than-expected quarterly earnings compared to the previous year.

04 Oct, 2023:

Shares of Quantum Computing Inc (QUBT) dropped by 6.73% from $1.04 to $0.97 in the trading on Wednesday, October 4, 2023. The reason why QUBT is down today is due to news about Quantum Computing Inc.'s (QCi) successful field validation of its Quantum Photonic Detection and Ranging Variant 3 (VX3) unexploded ordnance detection sensor. While this technology shows promise for humanitarian mine clearance and explosive ordnance disposal, the market reacted cautiously, possibly due to uncertainty about its commercialization. The VX3 sensor uses Quantum Single Photon Detection (QSPD) and optical pulses to detect landmines and unexploded ordnances, addressing a global landmine problem. In addition, landmines are a global concern, with millions of landmines in around 70 countries, posing a threat to civilians. The market's response likely reflects uncertainty about the technology's timeline and commercialization, leading to the decline in QUBT's stock price.

Quantum Computing Stock (QUBT) dropped by 7.50% from $1.20 to $1.11 in the trading on Tuesday August 15, 2023.

  • Q2 GAAP EPS loss of -$0.05, beating the consensus by $0.06. The Y/Y decrease is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses offset by an increase in financings costs related to interest on the company's promissory notes and fees for At-the-Market (ATM) facility.
  • Revenue of $0.11M, up +57.1% Y/Y, missing the consensus by $0.09M. The increase in revenues is primarily due to changes in the number and size of active customer contracts and the level of completion accomplished.
