Quantum computing stocks have catapulted this year, especially after Dec. 9, when Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google announced its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42447332/alphabets-quantum-willow-chip-wows-analyst-google-at-the-leading-edge-of-technology-innovation">latest quantum chip, Willow</a>. However, analysts have a negative consensus rating for these stocks.
What Happened: Quantum Computing Inc. stock surged by 52.95% on Thursday and 2,785.39% over the year but Citron Research has called this move the &#8220;most ridiculous&#8221; citing its spending on research and development.
Stocks of other companies, including Rigetti Computing Inc., and D-Wave Quantum Inc. have soared enormously, whereas other quantum computing players like IONQ Inc. and International Business Machines. have seen modest growth.

Why It Matters: The funds allocated to research and development as a part of operating expenses were down to $2.24 million in the third quarter of the current fiscal for Quantum Computing. This compares to $2.32 million during the same period last year.
According to Citron, this is a &#8220;striking mismatch for a company claiming to offer integrated high-performance quantum systems.&#8221;

Quantum computers, using qubits, promise to revolutionize computing by performing complex calculations exponentially faster than traditional computers.
Google&#8217;s recent breakthrough with Willow demonstrates the potential of quantum memory as it performed a standard benchmark computation in under five minutes which currently takes a supercomputer 10 septillion years — a number that vastly exceeds the age of the Universe.
However, high error rates remain a significant challenge, hindering commercial viability and uncertain timelines for widespread adoption.
&#8220;Buying $RGTI based on Google's quantum success is as misguided as believing every TikTok guitarist is the next Taylor Swift,&#8221; said Citron Research.

Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly engaging in discussions with&nbsp;Tencent&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>) and TikTok&#8217;s parent company,&nbsp;ByteDance, to integrate their AI&nbsp;models into iPhones sold in&nbsp;China.
What Happened: The U.S. tech giant began incorporating OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT into its devices earlier this month. However, due to regulatory constraints in China, Apple is seeking local partners to enhance AI features on its devices. The&nbsp;discussions with Tencent and ByteDance&nbsp;are reportedly in preliminary stages, sources indicated, Reuters reported on Thursday.
Apple&#8217;s move comes&nbsp;as it faces declining market&nbsp;share in China, the world&#8217;s largest smartphone market.&nbsp;The absence of AI capabilities&nbsp;in its latest iPhones has been a significant drawback, especially with increasing competition from domestic brands like Huawei.
Apple, Tencent and ByteDance have yet to respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> queries.

Why It Matters: The potential collaboration with Tencent and ByteDance is critical for Apple as it navigates the competitive Chinese market. In recent months, Apple has faced challenges in China, including a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40125039/apple-cracks-down-on-tencent-and-bytedance-over-30-app-store-fees-threatens-to-reject-essential-">crackdown on app store fees</a>. In August, Apple intensified efforts to compel Tencent and ByteDance to close loopholes that allowed in-app creators to bypass Apple&#8217;s 30% commission. 
Moreover, Apple&#8217;s AI ambitions have been met with skepticism. In October, an analyst suggested that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41420086/apple-intelligences-meh-moment-ahead-analyst-predicts-5-months-of-build-up-could-lead-to-a-thats-it">Apple&#8217;s much-anticipated AI system,</a> Apple Intelligence, might not meet high expectations. This underscores the importance of Apple&#8217;s current talks with Chinese tech giants to bolster its AI capabilities.
In November,&nbsp;Tim Cook&nbsp;expressed optimism about Apple&#8217;s performance in China, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41677388/tim-cook-underscores-several-positive-signs-in-apples-china-performance-refrains-from-talking-about">highlighting positive signs</a> despite economic challenges. However, he refrained from commenting on the potential impact of economic stimulus. This context emphasizes the strategic importance of Apple&#8217;s AI integration efforts in maintaining its market position in China.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has slammed Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) for its numerous requests to access iPhone-maker&#8217;s software tools, citing potential privacy and security risks.
What Happened: Under the EU&#8217;s Digital Markets Act, Apple is required to allow competitors and app developers to inter-operate with its services or face significant fines.
Meta has so far submitted 15 interoperability requests, more than any other company, seeking extensive access to Apple&#8217;s technology stack, reported Reuters, citing a report in which Cupertino complained about it.
The Tim Cook-led tech giant has expressed concerns that Meta&#8217;s requests could compromise user privacy and security.

The company also suggested that the requests are unrelated to the use of Meta&#8217;s external devices like smart glasses and VR headsets.
Apple cited Meta's history of receiving fines in Europe as a reason for its concern.
In response, a Meta spokesperson accused Apple of using privacy as a pretext for anticompetitive behavior. &#8220;Every time Apple is called out for its anticompetitive behavior, they defend themselves on privacy grounds that have no basis in reality.&#8221;
Apple and Meta did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Subscribe to the <a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a> to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It Matters: Since 2014, Cook and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg have clashed over privacy, business models, and product strategies.
From Facebook&#8217;s Cambridge Analytica scandal to Apple's iOS privacy updates and competing VR headsets, their battle epitomizes the growing tensions between Silicon Valley&#8217;s biggest players.
This year in February, Apple launched its first-generation mixed-reality headset called Vision Pro, and Zuckerberg wasted no time in sharing his thoughts on the device.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) gave California the green light on Wednesday to ban the sale of new gasoline-powered light-duty vehicles by 2035.
What Happened: The agency granted a waiver to California under the Clean Air Act to implement its plan mandating that all new light-duty vehicles delivered in the state by 2035 be plug-in hybrids, battery electric, and hydrogen-powered vehicles. 
The EPA also granted a waiver for the state&#8217;s "Omnibus" low-NOx (nitrogen oxides) regulation aimed at reducing harmful emissions from heavy-duty trucks.
"California has longstanding authority to request waivers from EPA to protect its residents from dangerous air pollution coming from mobile sources like cars and trucks,"&nbsp;said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. "Today's actions follow through on EPA's commitment to partner with states to reduce emissions and act on the threat of climate change."
The EPA said in a statement that the opponents of the two waivers failed to show how either program is inconsistent with the Clean Air Act. 
Why It Matters: "Clean cars are here to stay. The Biden-Harris Administration reaffirmed what we've known for decades – California can rise to the challenge of protecting our people by cleaning our air and cutting pollution,&#8221; California Governor Gavin Newsom said.
&#8220;Naysayers like President-elect Trump would prefer to side with the oil industry over consumers and American automakers, but California will continue fostering new innovations in the market."
The California Governor, however, clarified in his statement that the rules are not aimed at gas vehicles already on the road but only attempt to regulate new cars. &#8220;We expect to see internal combustion engine vehicles on California roads past 2050&#8230;,&#8221; he said. 
Last month, Newsom also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42183055/elon-musk-slams-californias-proposal-to-shut-tesla-evs-out-of-consumer-rebates-in-state-this-is-insane">outlined a new proposal</a> to offer incentives for EV buyers in California if Trump gets rid of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41988194/trump-plans-to-erase-ev-tax-credit-analyst-says-its-net-bullish-calls-sell-off-wrong-knee-jerk-reaction">federal $7,500 tax break</a> for EV buyers when he returns to the White House early next year.

EPA Greenlights California's Plan To Ban Sale Of New Gas Cars By 2025

Popular dog-themed cryptocurrency Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) dumped hard Wednesday amid the broader market slump precipitated by the Federal Reserve's hawkish outlook.
What happened: The world's largest meme coin by market capitalization sank to a 5-week low of $0.34 during the evening before clawing back to $0.36.&nbsp;
DOGE lost over 6% in the last 24 hours, while its trading volume spiked 62% to $6.57 billion, making it one of the most transacted tokens on the day.
Well-known cryptocurrency analyst Kevin said that the move down was expected and it was "staring us all in the face."

<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">We predicted this move down on <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Dogecoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Dogecoin</a> perfectly.

Interestingly, a renowned early adopter of the cryptocurrency, Glauber Contessoto, aka the &#8216;Dogecoin Millionaire, &#8216;disclosed on X that he was also among the sellers.

Why It Matters: DOGE's technical indicators painted a bearish outlook as of this writing, <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/DOGEUSDT/technicals/?exchange=BINANCE">according </a>to TradingView.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator, which compares two exponential moving averages of price, flashed a "Sell" signal. Additionally, most shorter moving averages hinted that the price could fall further.
That said, the Bull Bear Power indicator, used for measuring the strength of buyers and sellers in the market, showed a "Neutral" reading.
The derivatives market, on the other hand, sprang a surprise, as over 84% of the top trader accounts on Binance were long on DOGE as of this writing, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/TopTrader/Binance">according </a>to Coinglass.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Dogecoin was exchanging hands at $0.3616, down 6.47% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;
