1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 2: The Stock Movers Report, your roundup of companies making moves 3 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: in the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data. 4 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 3: I'm Jim Statobek along with Carol Master. Let's take a 5 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 3: look at some of the stocks on the move today 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 3: with US. Now is Bloomberg News cross ass at reporter 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 3: Emily Graffeo, Emily, what's on your radar? 8 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 4: Okay, So I'm looking at a stock that is a 9 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 4: lot higher today despite the indexes being down. D Wave Quantum. 10 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 4: The ticker is qb TS. So the quantum computing trade 11 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 4: has been one that's been very popular with retail vesters. 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: We shift from AI to quantum. But yeah, it's all connected. 13 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 4: I don't admit to be a quantum computing expert. 14 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 5: It's just quantum computing. 15 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just it's not rocket science. Went away, mister 16 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: jenne go ahead. 17 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 4: But the company announced that they announced today that general 18 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 4: availability of a new quantum computing system, and they said 19 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 4: that this new type of computer can solve complex problems 20 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 4: beyond the reach of what classical computers could do. So 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 4: the stock is up twenty six percent right now. We 22 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 4: know it's popular with retail investors because there's a quantum 23 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 4: computing ETF and then there's also an ETF that gives 24 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 4: you double leverage on this stock the tickers qbt X, 25 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 4: and it was up sixty percent today. 26 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 3: We're still doing the leverage single stocks thing. 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 1: Oh yes, we are still very much doing that. 28 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 4: This space is like fifteen billion dollars now of just 29 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 4: like single stock leverage ETFs. So this is one of them, 30 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,199 Speaker 4: two x this quantum stock. 31 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: And by the way, thank you Google. 32 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 5: Quantum and quantum computing and AI not the same thing. 33 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 5: AI a broad field of computer science focused on creating 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 5: intelligence agents. Carol Well. 35 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: Quantum computing is. 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 5: A specialized form of computing that leverages quantum mechanics to 37 00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 5: SOLF specific types of. 38 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 3: Are using on the AI Overview tool on I might 39 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: be Google to tell you the answer to this might Okay, 40 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: I'm just checking. 41 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just checking checking my source. 42 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: But I looked at it a couple different explanations. 43 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like it has something to do with the 44 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: way that the computer solves problems is different. 45 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: It's all getting super smart, isn't it.

But the retailer 51 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 4: is adopting a shareholder rights plan otherwise known as a 52 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 4: poison pill.
