Buying the RGTI Dip? Stop. Think.

[u/fksakeisaidnobabe]

People hyping up the dip on RGTI seem to be ignoring the elephant in the room: a single, casual comment about quantum computing from a tech CEO wiped out 50% of RGTI's share price overnight. Let that sink in for a second... half the market cap gone, not because of earnings, not because of product failures, but because of words.

Now ask yourself: what does that say about what was propping up the $18+ price? Spoiler: It wasn’t the underlying financials or fundamentals.

So why are you buying back in? Are you seriously betting that Jensen walks back his comment? Or are you hoping another big-name CEO decides to contradict him just to boost this stock? Because that's a pretty wild gamble when you think about it.

This isn’t about a calculated investment anymore... it’s about FOMO and denial. Some of you don’t seem to want your money. Just remember, markets can stay irrational a lot longer than your wallet can.

TL;DR: Be real with yourself before buying the RGTI dip. Is this a strategic play, or are you just coping?

Edit#1 for clarification:

Clearly a divisive topic. Appreciate you all engaging and thanks for the award.

I’m seeing a lot of replies suggesting I’m bearish on quantum’s long-term potential. For clarity, I’m not. My point is that even at this dip, RGTI’s price doesn’t reflect its fundamentals or actual progress. If you believe in RGTI’s future, that’s fine... but why not wait for a price that matches its current reality?

If your plan is to time and profit off a dead cat bounce, great. Just be clear on your strategy.

Edit#2 for context some are missing:

For the multitude of comments claiming this was a ploy by Jensen to slow-roll Quantum investments... under Huang's leadership, NVIDIA has established strategic partnerships with multiple quantum computing entities, contributing significantly to the progress of quantum technologies through its high-performance computing solutions. He has skin in the game.

Buying the dip doesn't necessarily mean investing. I think it's a good opportunity to buy into relief and sell on the bounce, likely friday for short-term trade. 50% drop on a sector in a single night does call for some kind of bounce. The top is definitely in for the quantum sector since the sentiment has shifted and it was purely euphoric market action and greed sending not only quantum stocks up and overall small and micro cap stocks flying - all markets down today. IONQ speaking at CES on Friday. Let's see what happens.

QTUM etf....look for a bottom and buy some shares and forget you own it for the next ten years. May expect a tenfold return on the investment. Once I heard GOOGs announcement, and saw the gains, I have just been waiting for the drop to bottom out before getting a bit of money invested for a "set it and forget it" trade.

Exactly!! QTUM down 5% today. Womp womp. Invest in QTUM and completely ignore the quantum market for at least 5 years. My gut says you will absolutely not regret it. Volatility is opportunity but quantum computing could literally rework society.
