They literally have 2 dudes and a nube HAHA - california is so jacked. Smoke session commence

Look for the rebound next week - sellers remorse. 30 burger coming up.

anyone notice the big buy at close today? prolly the whack jobs. lol

its all absurd. totally nutty California lawyers out of control. Whack Jobs

Just google these peckers - they sue everyone. CVS, petco, legal zoom, microsoft. etc. they just suing anything they can get $ from. They literally got a picture of this prick nose guy on the homepage like them ambulance chaser billboards - I'm not kidding. There is another fat guy lawyer and a dude that wont show his face on the "about us page" - it's absurd. From California - LOL They gunna get smoked. Yawn, next.

Exactly. Pffffttttt NEXT! It seems everyone is afraid of IonQ as we are clearly the leaders with over 900 patents now! They should be scared.

It's nothing more than a fishing expedition. They don't even have a lead plaintiff. Unfortunately I fully expect additional law firms to follow by casting their own lines as well. This will not gain any traction. Usually it's just an opportunity for the firms to get their names out there 

Niccolo is a very stand up guy. Trust me when I say I just heard from him. But he never said a word. Just gave me a sign. That was huge!. He didn’t have to do that. It shows he really cares about IonQ and its shareholders. I hope he got some of the Kona Coffee and chocolate Mac nuts I sent Peter and crew. Ionq is kickin ass and taking names . KAATN’s / Kona Buy all you can I am. 🌈😎🤙

Looks like Niccolo has 721,267 reasons to increase our share price. This guy is on it. I like him. I also think him and Peter make a great tag team ( big time wrestling days. Yeah I’m an old fart lol) ( remember the Sheik? Haystack Harry, ? ) lol anyway they are going to take quantum into the next huge paradigm shift. Sell all your buggy whips just sitting in your account gathering dust and go all in at this price. You can thank me later in Kona on the beach in front of your new home. Aloha🌈🐬🐳😎🤙

“Possible” ? And “may file” ? Grasping at straws or just criminals doing what criminals do? Sickening. Sickem Niccolo and Peter ! We will not stand for this crap. You guys and your entire crew and all shareholders should be beyond thoroughly pissed. Do NOT let this just slide. Hold their feet to the fire with a class action against them.

I’d be real surprised if our BoD didn’t sue them. Stay tuned. Doc. U recognize their name in N Y hmmmm. Something stinks.

Prices go up and down in the stock market. The board at IONQ decided to change the CEO to advance the company. Nothing nefarious there, as it happens all the time.

The share price was rising daily until Jensen Huang made disparagimg comments questioning the viability of quantum in the near future. That killed the momentum and then investors took a look at the balance sheet and realized the company is not profitable, at this time.

A company can only go so far on hope and hype. At some point, the lines cross and earnings and profits become important.

When filing a lawsuit, the theory is to go after the deep pockets. Perhaps this is laying the groundwork to go after Jensen for his comments that crushed everything quantum?

It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Yes, forces appear to be at work in hurting IONQ. I agree with Ian, Kona and you concerning an unwarranted lawsuit. Judge should slap this law firm.

This should do wonders for the price per share. Someone is kicking them when they are down.

It's called industrial espionage. In my opinion, one of the big boys has IONQ in their sights and is driving the price down for a takeover.

Absolutely.

No

Pure B S Disgusting really. Ambulance chasers at their worst.

Anyone think this looks like a ploy to take the price down further?

Uhhhhhh They announced ” a weaker than expected 1st qtr and changed CEO’s “ OMG hang them and thousands of other companies lmfao. I hope our lawyers sue them into b k

Into possible securities fraud? And may file a class action? WHAT! For what! Being honest? lol. These lawyers are unbelievable. They’re fishing for scared investors who sold. Lmfao. Nice try. You should all be disbarred. This kinda shit is what’s illegal market manipulation. I hope the S E C charges them. This is just wrong in so many ways.

On what basis could this law firm think that the company that has never forecasted any earnings could be held liable for losses incurred by speculators who willingly paying exorbitant prices that has absolutely no basis in the company fundamentals?

I don’t remember seeing Portnoy before, so I asked ChatGPT to tell me a little bit about them.

It sounds as if they just ride on the coattails of other class, action firms rather than earning a decent living practising law. … But what do I know?


the Portnoy Law Firm has filed numerous class action lawsuits against businesses, primarily on behalf of investors and consumers. Some of the cases include lawsuits against companies like Cabot Oil & Gas Corporation for allegedly misleading investors about environmental violations and Johnson & Johnson for failing to disclose dangerous levels of benzene in certain sunscreen products ? ?.

While the firm claims that its founding partner has helped recover over $5.5 billion for investors, there is no publicly available record confirming specific cases that the firm has won. Many of its lawsuits are part of broader investor litigation efforts, which can take years to resolve.

IONQ in the big leagues now. Here comes the lawyers….,,

Just when it was getting good they cut it off😱 crooks. All of em

CNBC Not posted yet. But I did find this old one.

Yep. U could tell she was only focused on what she heard Jensen say. And he left so many others with that same take away 15 to 30 years :;)&@);;($&. How he got away with that I don’t know? But I bet he cleans it up in March now that all the quantum stocks have crashed. Watch. And I bet he owns a ton.

i too thought it was a good interview except the host pretended that she needed a class in quantum. 101 freshman level

have a nice day 

Blue. I just caught the last part of the interview on cnbc with Niccolo Di Masi. What I caught was great! The guy is very up beat and got across at the end that quantum was here now. It seemed the interviewer was a bit skeptical. Jensen did some real damage to all quantum corporations. It will take a little while to prove him wrong. I’m hoping at his conference March 19,20,21 that he will be shut down and made to eat crow. Niccolo needs to be there to give more examples of sales and bookings at our 3 data centers etc. I’ll see if his interview is on u tube or our website. 😎🤙

market makes no sense. nothing adds up. good numbers - and everyone bails. people are fickle and knee jerk reaction to what ever. There is a reason - but dang if I can tell. NVDA got crushed on excellent Q4 numbers. I was with NVDA when it went from 15 to what ever and IonQ from 4 to what ever. so what ever -reset time to buy. May not be the bottom - but don't care in any case. AI wont do anything... LOL Quantum wont ever be here soon enough.. LOL Buy time. Im buying. too much opportunity here.

Another day like today and it may be below $22. As I said a few weeks ago, this could end up back in the $10 range (and was chastised for voicing that observation).

Just the facts, but it appears that the earnings report and change in leadership did not stop the bleeding here.

Think it will be there at that strike price...waiting myself at add

I'm trying to get back in at 22 range. 🤞.  I appreciate your input.  

I heard a guy on Fox business touting Quantum, too. He’s says “it’s coming.”

Many of these important patents may force all quantum roads to run through IONQ. So they are building and preparing for leadership in a quantum future.

That will also catch the attention of the big players in the field. In my opinion, at some point, one of the big dogs will need to acquire IONQ, to maintain a presence or leadership role in quantum. It could become to costly for a large corporation, not to acquire IONQ.

IONQ share price Long Tail Down on 27-Feb-2025.
This is same and follows the same pattern as the one on Feb 25, 2025.
It appears this (2nd time) should increase the likelihood of share price up move.

We shall see. GLTA

PS: Momentum for IONQ is strongly bearish. The 14-period Slow Stochastic oscillator is below 20, the level which many analysts call oversold. This means that investors have been actively selling shares and driving the price lower. Today's volume is on track to be heavier than usual, with 26,058,001 shares having traded so far. The On Balance Volume indicator (OBV) shows that longer term accumulation has given way to near term selling pressure by traders as of 1:49 PM ET Thursday, 02/27/2025

wow 
great interview 
for one de masi has been with chapman since the IPO 
he is a very positive guy and exudes a very positive future for IONQ 

rocky road if  are a swing trader 
if you are a buy and hold 
this sure  looks great 

good luck to all 

Doc. Yep. Remember AWS was an early investor in IonQ along with Michael Dell, Mark Benioff and Bill Gates. IonQ’s nearly 900 patents have an effective moat around our Tec . What’s just the 900 patents worth.

im in caribbean 
now watching cnbc and this will be second repkrt on quantum today that i've seen 
hmmmmmm....

Yes. It's "bass-ackwards" isn't it!

A company strives to do well and does. The report is published, and the company beats estimates handily. The investors in the stock rightly expect to be rewarded. Yet the stock price decreases in the face of these great financials. And it's because they didn't beat as much as the market thinks they should have beaten estimates. A company beats expectations for 9 quarters in a row and it's punished??

There's not much sense in it, is there?

I hate to say this but purely looking at financials? IONQ should be lower still. Do NOT get me wrong. I'm not hoping for investors here to suffer. Far from it. I hope everyone makes a boatload of money here. But still.

And you can't say it's just "forward looking" expectations. Sure, IONQ has some great things to look forward to. But NVDA also just guided for strong earnings for the rest of the year. THAT'S "forward looking" also. But you can see what is happening to the stock price.

At any rate - I hope IONQ recovers and does well for its investors.

ionq has the patents for ocelot/amzn?

Crosstalk reduction in multi-channel acousto-optic modulators
Patent number: 12231185
Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe controlling coherent crosstalk errors in multi-channel acousto-optic modulators (AOMs). A method, an AOM system, and a quantum information processing (QIP) system are described in which a separate radio-frequency (RF) signal is generated and applied to each of multiple channels of a multi-channel AOM using an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) to turn on each of those channels, where each channel that is turned on interacts with one or more of the remaining channels that are not turned on to cause a combined crosstalk effect on those remaining channels. Each channel has a single respective AWG. Moreover, a correcting RF signal is generated and applied to the one or more of the remaining channels using a respective AWG to produce an acoustic wave that corrects for the combined crosstalk effect such that the one or more of the remaining channels are not unintentionally turned on.

It reminds me of when flat screen televisions first appeared. They cost $25k and were 42 inches at best. The tv cost a lot to produce and at that price point, obviously wasn't mainstream for an average person to buy.

But they knew it was the future and kept investing in improvements. The tvs went from plasma to LCD, to LED. They were able to offer larger and larger tvs, significantly cheaper prices and the tvs also weighed much less.

Now everyone has large flat screen tvs and they have become disposable. No one repairs a tv anymore. If there is a problem, throw it away and buy a new one, because the prices have come down so far.

Quantum may follow a similar path. At the moment, it is very expensive and in its infancy. As progress and discoveries are made in the field, prices will come down and services and technology will increase.

Sadly, unrealistic expectations.

Having the product list with normal retail prices might generate a little bit more interest from corporations if there were some profit, making applications or at least some money savings from the use of the products.

Earnings calls, whether positive or negative, doesn’t seem to matter lately. Look at what’s happening to NVDA this morning. Top and bottom beats with a larger forecast for next quarter’s outlook and it is getting punished. They beat by over $2 billion, which is more than most companies sell in a quarter and it isn’t good enough. Market is weird.

what's the chance of ionq with a quantum computing access /integration with nvidia mini supercomputer in april time frame?
games of chance like online roulette, dice, 21?
the new ceo is a gamer , right?
what are nvidia's plans for marketing their mini supercomputer? segue opportunities for ionq, if they can get access to it and associated ip via cloud services?

Amazon announcing their own quantum chip doesn't help either
we need real PRs about results from the systems that are being used around the world by corporations and government research facilities

It looks like they missed on earnings.......BADLY! New stock offering.....Is that called dilution?. I don't think thats called market manipulation.JMO
