Shares of IonQ Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IONQ#NYSE">IONQ</a>) enjoyed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/quantum-computing">a quantum leap</a> of 33.48% in a single day to close Wednesday at $39.39. The catalyst?
A perfect storm of bullish momentum driving investor buying, including a Microsoft-powered tailwind and a $1 billion deal securing Maryland as the new epicenter of quantum computing.

IonQ stock is up over 336% over the past six months. It is riding a strong bullish momentum, with its share price above the five, 20 and 50-day EMAs, signaling buying pressure. IonQ stock's eight-day SMA (simple moving average) at $37.42 confirms a short-term bullish signal, while the 50-day SMA at $33.86 reinforces bullish sentiment.
However, the 20-day SMA at $40.97 presents a minor resistance level, suggesting potential near-term volatility. With the 200-day SMA at just $14.94, IONQ stock remains in a long-term uptrend, keeping the bulls in charge.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Microsoft Says &#8216;Get Quantum-Ready,&#8217; Wall Street Listens</h2>
Microsoft's strategic missions chief Mitra Azizirad fired up the quantum bulls on Wednesday, declaring 2025 "the year to become quantum-ready." 
That was all investors needed to send IonQ shares flying, as the company sits at the forefront of the quantum race with its cloud-accessible quantum computers and expanding partnerships.
IonQ CEO Peter Chapman doubled down on the optimism, <a href="https://investors.ionq.com/news/news-details/2025/IonQ-CEO-on-Timeline-to-Quantum-Value/default.aspx">projecting</a> strong 2024 results and profitability by 2030—a bold call in a sector where commercial viability remains a long game.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Maryland's $1B Bet On IonQ</h2>
Beyond the tech buzz, IonQ locked in a<a href="https://investors.ionq.com/news/news-details/2025/State-of-Maryland-University-of-Maryland-Announce-1-Billion-Capital-of-Quantum-Initiative/default.aspx"> $1 billion deal</a> with the state of Maryland to build a 100,000-square-foot quantum computing hub at the University of Maryland. 
The investment is set to accelerate quantum research, create jobs, and cement IonQ's position as a leader in the space.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pentagon's Quantum Play: A $21.1M Air Force Deal</h2>
Adding to its bullish case, IonQ secured a $21.1 million <a href="https://ionq.com/news/ionq-announces-new-usd21-1-million-project-with-united-states-air-force" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">contract</a> with the U.S. Air Force Research Lab to advance quantum networking infrastructure. 
This follows a $54.5 million deal signed in September, underscoring the military's growing reliance on quantum tech.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Reality Check: Quantum Stocks Are Volatile</h2>
Despite the euphoria, IonQ remains a high-beta stock, swinging between massive gains and steep pullbacks. 
The College Park, Maryland-based company is still unprofitable and faces skepticism from bears, including controversial investor Martin Shkreli, who recently suggested shorting quantum computing stocks overvaluation concerns.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h2>
With quantum investment topping $50 billion and giants like Amazon, Google, IBM, and Nvidia diving in, the sector's long-term potential is undeniable. But for IonQ investors, the road ahead could be as volatile as the quantum particles they're betting on.
Will IonQ's momentum hold, or is this just another quantum blip? Buckle up—2024 is shaping up to be a make-or-break year for the stock.

BlackRock Generates Industry-Leading ETF Inflows Of $390 Billion In 2024: Here Are Five iShares ETFs That Investors Should Look Out For

The digital payments market is poised for outstanding growth, fueled by efficient and convenient payment methods that consumers increasingly prefer. In this booming sector, is Visa Inc. (V), with its dominant industry position, a must-have stock for investors looking to capitalize on the future of finance? Read more… Digital payments have surged in popularity thanks to advancements in technology that make transactions faster, easier, and more convenient. In fact, the digital payments market is expected to hit <a href="https://www.statista.com/outlook/fmo/digital-payments/worldwide">$17.72 trillion by 2024</a>, according to Statista. But that's just the beginning.
The global digital payments market is forecasted to grow to $36.75 trillion by 2029, at a CAGR of 15.7%. As the world embraces digital finance, this explosive growth presents massive opportunities for Visa Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/V/">V</a>).
V is at the forefront of the digital payment revolution. From VisaNet, its transaction processing network, to offering credit, debit, prepaid cards, and Visa Direct, the company has become a payment powerhouse. V's innovative solutions and strategic partnerships have solidified its dominant position in the market.
Its impressive growth over the past year has been nothing short of remarkable. The stock soared 14.9% in just six months and 22.1% over the last year, closing at $313.01 in the last trading session. These gains reflect the company's ability to ride the wave of digital payment growth and cement its leadership.
Now, let's dig into the factors that could shape V's performance in the near future.
Recent Developments
V's recent initiatives are strategically positioned to strengthen its market leadership in digital payments.
On November 12, the company <a href="https://investor.visa.com/news/news-details/2024/Visa-Flexible-Credential-Goes-Global-Transforming-the-Card-for-a-Digital-Future/default.aspx">expanded its Flexible Credential program</a> to the United States with Affirm and to the United Arab Emirates with Liv. The innovation allows customers to pay using multiple account funding sources with a single card, driving convenience and enhancing the appeal of cashless payments.
The move is expected to significantly boost V's market share and solidify its dominance in the evolving digital payments landscape.
Additionally, on October 29, V partnered with Coinbase, a leading platform for buying, selling, and managing crypto. Through <a href="https://investor.visa.com/news/news-details/2024/Coinbase-to-Integrate-Visa-Direct-to-Deliver-Real-Time-Account-Funding-for-Customers/default.aspx">the integration of Visa Direct</a>, V now facilitates real-time account funding for crypto transactions, empowering eligible Visa debit card users on Coinbase to seize trading opportunities around the clock.
The collaboration positions V as a pivotal enabler in the expanding crypto market. Combined with its focus on innovative payment solutions, these strategic moves align with V's efforts to capture emerging trends and maintain its competitive edge in the evolving financial ecosystem.
Sound Historical Growth
Over the past three years, V has demonstrated consistent growth across key financial metrics. Its revenue grew at a CAGR of 14.2%, while EBITDA rose slightly faster at 14.6%. Operational income (EBIT) and total assets expanded at CAGRs of 14.8% and 4.5%, respectively.
Notably, net income surged at a CAGR of 17.1%, and EPS climbed even higher at 20%, showcasing robust profitability. The sustained performance underscores V's strong growth trajectory and its ability to deliver solid results over time.
Strong Financials
For the fiscal fourth quarter that ended September 30, 2024, V's net revenue increased 11.7% year-over-year to $9.62 billion. Its <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/o/operatingincome.asp">operating income</a> grew 14.4% from the year-ago value to $6.35 billion.
