On the 21st, domestic quantum computer-related stocks are continuously declining in early trading. Analysts interpret that the drop in U.S. quantum computing stocks, such as IonQ, was influenced by remarks made by Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, the previous day.
As of 9:52 a.m. on this day, iWIN PLUS is trading at 1,308 won, down 66 won (4.80%) from the previous trading day.
Other quantum computer-related stocks, including KCS (-3.70%), AXGATE (-3.10%), ICTK (-2.36%), and WOORIRO (-1.17%), are also experiencing declines.
Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, said on the 20th (local time) at the company's largest annual conference, 'GTC 2025,' held in San Jose, that he did not know corporations are publicly traded when trying to clarify his statement from January that 'it will take 20 years for quantum computing commercialization.' However, he did not waver in his belief that it would still take years for technology to expand.
He noted, 'Quantum computing has tremendous potential and capabilities, and we all hope this technology will have an innovative impact,' while also stating that 'it is natural to think that this technology is incredibly complex and will take years to mature.'
This day marked the first 'Quantum Day' at Nvidia's GTC. However, the lack of significant announcements to capture the market's attention led to a decline in quantum computer-related stocks. Major quantum computing stocks, IonQ and Rigetti Computing, fell 9.27% and 9.24%, respectively.
