But one tech giant is making breakthroughs, positioning it to be a leader in the quantum computing industry. That company is Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT). Here are some of the reasons why it's a top quantum computing stock to buy right now. price-to-sales

Advanced numerical simulation tools such as QuantumATK, HFSS, and RaptorQu are transforming how research groups approach computational modeling. Instead of relying on a patchwork of academic codes, teams can now leverage unified environments — with common data models and consistent interfaces — that support a variety of computational methods.

Google’s Willow chip runs a quantum algorithm 13,000x faster than supercomputers, marking a verifiable step toward real-world quantum computing.

Nvidia's software will bridge the gap between traditional and quantum computing. Taiwan Semiconductor's chips will be used in both applications. ASML's machines help chip foundries manufacture cutting-edge chips.

Today, we’re announcing research that shows — for the first time in history — that a quantum computer can successfully run a verifiable algorithm on hardware,” Google writes in a new blog post. The claim,

The US is taking equity stakes in quantum-computing firms, signaling a bold new era of state-backed innovation in a trillion-dollar frontier technology.

While the long-term prospects for quantum computers are bright, historical precedent is no friend of game-changing innovations in the very early stage of their expansion.
