The Next Big Thing: Quantum Computing! New Opportunities in Aqarios Quantum Technologies, D-Wave and IonQ?
The stock market loves the prospect of the next technological leap. Is quantum computing next in line? Quantum computers use the principles of quantum physics to solve certain highly complex tasks more efficiently than classical computers. The technology could dramatically transform industrial processes in medicine, energy, materials research, logistics and cybersecurity. Recently, Aqarios Quantum Technologies became the first pure-play quantum computing company to make its debut on the German stock exchange. The Munich-based company develops software for complex planning tasks and combines classical computing methods with quantum algorithms. Its latest move into the IBM ecosystem is drawing attention. The company also collaborates with numerous German blue-chip firms. IonQ has raised its revenue forecast following an acquisition, while D-Wave is benefiting from US government support. Although their business models differ, they share the common goal of turning quantum research into a scalable business. Which company will perform best in the coming months?

Problems at HelloFresh? Opportunities at D-Wave Quantum and Standard Uranium?
Could HelloFresh shares fall below EUR 2? Analysts are cutting their price targets following the profit warning. mwb considers EUR 1.80 fair value for the meal-kit delivery company's shares and points to a problem with its business model. At the beginning of the year, the stock was still trading at EUR 6. Uranium stocks have disappointed investors so far in 2026. Despite a continued positive long-term supply-and-demand situation, the sector has been in the red since the start of the year. However, that is precisely where John Bey sees opportunities. In an interview, the Standard Uranium CEO offers an optimistic outlook. D-Wave shares have yet to set the world alight. Now, the details of the partnership with the US government have been released.

Germany: A Quantum Champion? How Aqarios Quantum Technologies Is Winning Over BASF, E.ON and IBM – Innovations at Quantum eMotion and Amazon
The world is becoming increasingly complex — a statement few would disagree with. Take a closer look at the inner workings of logistics, manufacturing or even data centres, and the complexity becomes even more apparent. The reason is simple: ever-increasing amounts of data. Traditional computers are reaching their limits in the face of this new reality. But a solution exists: quantum computing. Quantum technology is moving from universities into real-world applications. Quantum computing is evolving from a research topic into a tool for creating greater value. While tech giants like Amazon and Nvidia are thinking far into the future, specialized software pioneers are already demonstrating today how complex business processes can be drastically accelerated. The good news: A promising quantum pioneer hails from Germany and has been trading on the stock market for some time as the only German "pure-play" quantum stock.

AI and Quantum Wonders Keep Happening: TeamViewer, SAP, and Aspermont Soaring, Palantir Sidelined
Quantum technology is considered one of the most significant waves of innovation of the 21st century and could completely turn entire industries upside down. At the same time, this same technological progress poses significant risks to digital security, as powerful quantum computers could one day overcome established encryption methods. Software and hardware companies are equally challenged. But while the tech titans from Silicon Valley are securing the physical and digital foundation of the AI economy, the valuation fantasies of individual high-flyers like Palantir are coming under increasing pressure from reality following a sharp correction. At least established software companies like SAP and TeamViewer are stabilizing in their new roles as AI integration and automation providers for businesses. Away from the mainstream, Aspermont is taking a radically different approach: there, data is not merely processed but transformed into an actual commodity within a raw materials-driven market environment. In the future, whoever controls access to relevant information will no longer decide merely on competitive advantages—but on market positions themselves.
