One business in the space to consider investing in is Quantum Computing Inc. (NASDAQ: QUBT), which also refers to itself as QCi. The company's stock is up more than 2,000% over the past 12 months.

D-Wave stock fell after the quantum computing firm reported a wider-than-expected Q2 loss while revenue topped views.

While the sequential surge in revenue may seem odd, it’s part of a pattern for quantum-computing companies. Revenue and bookings are typically lumpy, or occurring in large chunks at irregular times, ahead of broad commercialization.
