Shares of LAES.O declined sharply today, hitting a 20-day low as investor sentiment in the quantum computing sector continues to wane. The stock's recent price action reflects a broader trend of bearish momentum, exacerbated by Martin Shkreli's aggressive shorting strategy targeting overvalued quantum stocks. Shkreli's claims that the commercial viability of quantum computing is overstated have resonated with market participants, leading to significant declines across the sector, with Rigetti down over 50% and IonQ down 38% in recent weeks. As the market grapples with these developments, LAES.O's performance underscores the challenges facing quantum technology companies amidst growing skepticism about their future prospects.
