IONq to $100. High conviction long term play Although I could foresee this happening before years end 

$IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$ shares surged over 20% in mid-April 2026, driven by a combination of high-profile government contracts, technical breakthroughs, and a broad rally in the quantum sector spurred by Nvidia. This surge, following a tough start to 2026 for quantum stocks, has sparked debate over whether the sector is seeing a fundamental repricing toward commercial maturity rather than just speculative hype.  Drivers of the Surge (April 2026) DARPA Contract Win: IonQ was selected for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Heterogeneous Architectures for Quantum (HARQ) program, aiming to connect different quantum machines. Nvidia Catalyst: Nvidia launched open-source quantum AI models (including "Ising") on World Quantum

🚀 IonQ Surges 21%: The Quantum-AI Repricing is Here $IONQ just rocketed +20.95% to close at $43.25. If you're brushing this off as just another volatile tech spike, look closer. We are witnessing a massive structural shift for the entire sector, driven by a powerful dual catalyst. Here is exactly why the market is aggressively repricing Quantum right now: 🏛️ 1. Sovereign-Level Validation (DARPA) IonQ was tapped for DARPA's HARQ quantum networking program. This isn't just a standard contract; it's the U.S. Government strategically validating IonQ's photonic interconnect tech. This level of public sector backing severely de-risks the long-term thesis for investors. 🧠 2. The Big Tech Catalyst (Nvidia) Simultaneously, Nvidia unveiled its new Ising quantum-AI model. This is the match that lit t

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$ IonQ just delivered a massive 20.95% surge to $43.25, catapulting the quantum computing leader into the spotlight as DARPA selected it for the HARQ quantum networking program while Nvidia simultaneously unveiled its new Ising quantum-AI model. 😤 This dual validation is a game-changer, shifting quantum from a distant "long-term concept" to a dual-endorsed technology backed by U.S. government strategic needs and Big Tech’s practical AI infrastructure push. Photonic interconnect technology from IonQ is now officially in the DARPA pipeline for secure, high-speed quantum networking, while Nvidia’s Ising model integration highlights how quantum systems can accelerate AI training

IonQ Shares Jump 19%, Raising Risk of Short Squeeze After Bears Pile In $IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$   jumped about 19% Wednesday, raising the risk of a short squeeze after bears piled in at the fastest pace since September, just as investors cheered after the quantum-computing company announced pair of federal contract wins and reached a technical milestone. Trading in borrowed IonQ shares that were sold short soared more than five-fold to 14.42 million shares Tuesday from a day earlier, according to exchange data. That accounted for 21.2% of the 68.01 million shares traded that day, when the stock soared 20%.  The bearish bets ran headlong into news that IonQ was selected for the Defense Advanced Research Proje

My stock in focus today is $IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$ , after announcing a key breakthrough on World Quantum Day. The company successfully linked two separate quantum computers using photonic interconnects — a major step toward building a future quantum network or even a “quantum internet.” This suggests practical quantum computing may be closer than previously expected. The development is further validated by support from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Air Force Research Laboratory, reinforcing IonQ’s credibility despite earlier skepticism. At the same time, momentum across the sector remains strong, with peers like Rigetti Computing and D-Wave Quantum also moving higher. From a market perspective, the sharp rally reflects
