D-Wave Quantum Has Been Cut in Half—Can a Leveraged ETF Help Bulls?Authored by Nathan Reiff. Article Posted: 3/31/2026. 
Key Points
- Quantum computing firm D-Wave Quantum has shed more than 50% of its share price so far in 2026 amid a selloff after a sustained rally last year.
- At the same time, QBTX is a single-stock ETF aiming to provide 2X leveraged exposure to the daily share price movement of QBTS.
- QBTX may be more appropriate for risk-tolerant investors expecting a single-day bump in D-Wave stock, while QBTS could be more suitable for those expecting the company to reverse its selloff and continue to make a significant impact on the quantum computing industry over a longer period.

Quantum computing firm D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) has crossed the 50% threshold—meaning shares have lost more than half of their value year-to-date (YTD) in 2026—leaving investors wondering how much lower the stock can go. The last time QBTS traded below $14 was in May 2025; shares then more than tripled by October. Despite the many reasons investors may be worried about the selloff, a lower share price can have one potential advantage: any future gains translate into larger percentage increases than identical absolute gains at a higher price.

Forget about Trump’s ties to Israel.
Forget about reports of Iran’s nuclear program.

Put another way, a $1 rise when QBTS is at $14 represents a bigger percentage gain than the same $1 rise when the stock is at $30. That dynamic is where the Tradr 2X Long QBTS Daily ETF (BATS: QBTX) could be relevant. What QBTX Offers and Why Its Appeal Is Different From QBTSQBTX is one of a growing number of single-stock exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that provide leveraged exposure to a single underlying stock. Most ETFs hold a diversified basket of securities; single-stock funds like QBTX do the opposite, sacrificing diversification to magnify the daily returns of one name. Specifically, QBTX seeks to deliver 2X the daily return of D-Wave. If D-Wave rises 5% in a day, QBTX is structured to increase by about 10%. Conversely, on days when D-Wave falls, QBTX will magnify those losses. Because of this, investors should view D-Wave and QBTX as very different plays despite the connection. QBTS may appeal to investors bullish on quantum computing who are willing to hold for months or years as the company scales revenue and works toward profitability. QBTX is primarily a tactical vehicle for active traders aiming to capture very short-term moves—for example, on days when D-Wave jumps on a strong earnings report or a major contract announcement. It Comes Down to Risk Tolerance and Time HorizonD-Wave is facing near-term pressures, likely stemming from earnings misses in Q4 2025 and expectations that revenue could remain uneven as the company invests heavily to expand. That is on top of the industry's inherently speculative nature. Still, Wall Street analysts remain largely optimistic on D-Wave over the longer term, and the consensus price target is still above $36 per share. That outlook may make QBTS suitable for investors with moderate risk tolerance and a medium-to-long investment horizon. By contrast, QBTX's daily 2X leverage on an already-speculative stock makes it appropriate only for sophisticated investors with a high risk tolerance. Because the leverage resets each trading day, QBTX is intended for very short-term trades; over longer periods, compounding can cause its performance to diverge from QBTS and produce decay. When might QBTX be a good option for QBTS bulls? It can make sense when an investor has high conviction about a short-term directional move driven by a clear catalyst—such as the announcement of a new Advantage2 quantum system sale or a major government contract. It can also amplify gains during sustained upward momentum. In every case, traders should close QBTX positions before the market close to limit compounding risk. Investors who remain confident in the transformative potential of quantum computing but prefer a less risky approach may consider diversified alternatives. A growing number of quantum-focused ETFs now offer broader exposure without single-stock concentration or daily leverage. |
