$IONQ The market is sleeping on this draft executive order. The White House (along with the DOE, DOD, and Commerce Department) are about to throw their weight behind a new national quantum champion, and I believe it’s clear they have already chosen IONQ. Here’s why: 1. Creation

$IONQ Similar to last years kerrisdale short report, i think this will mark the bottom. Up from here.
We are short $IONQ because in 2025 they lost funding for Pentagon contracts that had comprised up to 86% of revenues from 2022-2024. This left a $54.6M black hole in their bookings in 2025, which we believe caused their CEO to resign and insiders to dump $396.6 million in stock.
