IonQ is a leader in quantum computing and networking, developing high performance systems based on trapped ion technology, to help solve the world's most complex commercial and research challenges. Oxford Ionics holds the current world records for fidelity, which measures the accuracy of quantum operations.
The transaction will bring together IonQ's quantum compute, application and networking stack with Oxford Ionics' groundbreaking ion-trap technology manufactured on standard semiconductor chips. The combined technologies are expected to deliver innovative, reliable quantum computers that increase in power, scale, and problem-solving capabilities. Both companies expect to benefit from the other's complementary technologies, deep expertise, and IonQ's global resources and established customer base.
The combined company expects to build systems with 256 physical qubits at accuracies of 99.99% by 2026 and advance to over 10,000 physical qubits with logical accuracies of 99.99999% by 2027. The combined company anticipates extending its innovation by reaching 2 million physical qubits in its quantum computers by 2030, enabling logical qubit accuracies exceeding 99.9999999999%.
The quantum computing market is projected to create up to $850 billion of global economic value by 2040 according to Boston Consulting Group. The management teams believe the transaction will enable the combined company to pioneer breakthroughs in quantum computing. IonQ expects that combining with Oxford Ionics will help drive the creation of disruptive applications that enable substantial revenue growth opportunities.
Oxford Ionics' team is expected to play a vital role in the combined company's future. Both Oxford Ionics founders, Dr. Chris Ballance and Dr. Tom Harty, are expected to remain with IonQ after the acquisition is completed, continuing their pioneering work on quantum technology development in the UK. The combined entity also plans to expand its workforce in Oxford to further develop the UK's position as a leader in quantum computing.
The combined company expects to maintain all existing customer relationships, including government partnerships in both the UK and US. The company also plans to continue working with the UK National Quantum Computing Centre and the government's Quantum Missions program, driven by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and Innovate UK, helping to develop practical quantum computing applications in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and defense.
"IonQ's vision has always been to drive real-world impact in every era and year of quantum computing's growth. Today's announcement of our intention to acquire Oxford Ionics accelerates our mission to full fault-tolerant quantum computers with 2 million physical qubits and 80,000 logical qubits by 2030," said Niccolo de Masi, CEO of IonQ. "We believe the advantages of our combined technologies will set a new standard within quantum computing and deliver superior value for our customers through market-leading enterprise applications.
De Masi continued, "We are pleased to welcome Oxford Ionics founders Dr. Chris Ballance and Dr. Tom Harty, and the rest of the Oxford Ionics team to IonQ. Their groundbreaking ion-trap-on-a-chip technology will accelerate IonQ's commercial quantum computer miniaturization and global delivery. Our combined path to millions of qubits by 2030 will help ensure unit economics, scale, and power as quantum computing rapidly evolves."

IonQ Buys Oxford Ionics in $1.075B Deal to Supercharge Quantum Computing Push

Financial expert and bestselling author Ramit Sethi, known for his books and the Netflix show How to Get Rich, recently shared a difficult but important conversation he had with his wife, Cassandra, before they got married: about prenups.
What Happened: In an <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ramit-and-cassandra-open-up-our-real-money-fights/id1577864998?i=1000710994153">episode</a> of his Money for Couples podcast, he and Cassandra spoke candidly about the lead-up to a prenuptial agreement before their 2018 wedding.
"I'm sweating thinking about it right now," Sethi admitted. "The first time I brought it up, I remember I had talked to so many people, gotten advice, planned what I was gonna say and I was very nervous about it."
Cassandra was open to the idea, but their conversation quickly turned sour. "We started going back and forth and I was very confused, very hurt because I'm like, ‘I'm not trying to trick anybody here,'" Sethi recalled.
The friction stemmed from their differing views of money. While Sethi focused on the numbers and tried to draw up a "generous" agreement, Cassandra was considering the emotional weight of the situation.
To resolve their issues, the couple consulted a therapist. "That really opened up conversations that we hadn't been able to have because my answer was like, ‘growth, of course, look at the compounding.' And her answer was, ‘safety,'" Sethi said.

Why It Matters: Money managers and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/04/44785964/why-marriage-may-be-the-most-important-business-decision-you-make">legal experts often regard prenups as an essential aspect of marriage</a>.

Dave Ramsey has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40261201/22-year-old-inherits-1-5-million-asks-the-ramsey-show-if-she-should-get-a-prenup-dave-recommends">advised many individuals</a> who call in to his show to sign prenuptial agreements, and recommended that couple <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38360464/dave-ramsey-says-when-you-get-married-combine-all-money-preacher-didnt-say-and-now-youre-a-joint">join their finances</a> instead of splitting costs.
The Sethis eventually found common ground and regard the prenup conversation as a milestone in their relationship, setting the stage for a solid marriage in the years that followed.   
The number of Americans considering prenups is on the rise. According to a Harris poll conducted in 2022, the number of people who have signed a prenup has climbed to 15%, compared to just 3% in 2010.

S&P 500 Hits 6,000 Level Following Positive Jobs Data: Investor Sentiment Improves, Fear Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

NASA and Pentagon officials have taken swift action to urge competitors of&nbsp;Elon Musk&#8216;s&nbsp;SpaceX,&nbsp;including&nbsp;Jeff Bezos&#8216;s&nbsp;Blue Origin, to expedite the development of alternative rockets and spacecraft following the public feud between President Donald Trump and Musk.
What Happened: The government officials were taken aback by Musk&#8217;s response to Trump&#8217;s threat. Musk, in turn, threatened to cease&nbsp;flying its Dragon spacecraft, a&nbsp;critical component of NASA&#8217;s astronaut transportation&nbsp;to the International Space Station.&nbsp;Although Musk later retracted this threat, it caused significant concern among NASA and Pentagon officials, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/06/07/trump-musk-spacex-nasa-national-security/">according</a> to a report by&nbsp;The Washington Post.
Following the public disagreement, government officials have approached commercial space companies, including Rocket Lab, Stoke Space and Jeff Bezos&#8217;s Blue Origin, to inquire about the readiness of their rockets for government missions.
During Trump's first term, he frequently criticized the Bezos-owned Washington Post. However, in March, Trump praised Bezos&#8217; move to make<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44371691/trump-praises-jeff-bezos-recent-moves-with-washington-post-hes-trying-to-do-a-real-job"> significant changes</a> with the Washington Post and said, &#8216;He&#8217;s trying to do a real job.&#8217;
SpaceX, a major recipient of government contracts, is responsible for transporting astronauts&nbsp;and cargo to the ISS,&nbsp;launching Pentagon satellites, and developing intelligence agency satellites. The growing tension between Musk and Trump intensified after the White House withdrew Musk-ally, Jared Isaacman&#8216;s nomination for NASA administrator.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;This recent development underscores the potential impact of political tensions on the space industry. It also highlights the increasing competition in the sector, with companies like Blue Origin making significant strides in their space exploration efforts. Just recently, Blue Origin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/space/25/06/45788673/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-reveals-new-space-vehicle-for-lunar-and-martian-missions">unveiled </a>a new vehicle for lunar and Martian missions, further cementing its position as a key player in the industry.
Bezos&#8217; Blue Origin has been a key player in the space industry, competing directly with SpaceX. Bezos has also made moves in the satellite internet market, launching the first <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45058299/elon-musks-starlink-empire-gets-new-challenger-in-shape-of-jeff-bezos-amazon-project-kuiper-deploys-first-operational-satellites">operational </a>satellites for his ambitious Project Kuiper, which directly challenges Musk&#8217;s Starlink. 
Meanwhile, Bezos has been making efforts to improve his relationship with Trump, a move that could potentially impact Amazon&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) sprawling business. The Amazon founder appears to be seeking a reset by visiting Mar-a-Lago, contributing $1 million to Trump's inauguration and reportedly signing a $40 million documentary deal with First Lady Melania Trump.
Benzinga's Edge Rankings place Amazon in the 70th percentile for quality and the 97th percentile for growth, reflecting its strong performance in both areas.

Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock plunged 14.09% over the last five days, possibly due to Elon Musk's departure from the White House and his ongoing feud with President Trump.

Why Jeff Bezos Might Emerge As The Biggest Winner In The Trump-Musk Feud

Billionaire investor and television personality Mark Cuban has been an avid cryptocurrency advocate over the years, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) receiving special attention in his social media posts and interviews.
What happened: Cuban has been a proponent of Bitcoin's safe haven narrative, even deeming it a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42935597/mark-cuban-advocates-bitcoin-over-gold-during-economic-turmoil-i-think-it-has-more-value-than-gold">&#8220;better version of gold</a>.&#8221; He argued that, in addition to being as good as gold as a hedge against economic downturns, Bitcoin is &#8220;easier&#8221; to buy, trade and transfer globally. 
The "Shark's" conviction was tested during Bitcoin's April downturn. The apex cryptocurrency had<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44669943/why-is-bitcoin-down-today-trump-tariffs-spark-market-panic-as-btc-slides-below-75k"> plunged below $75,000</a> in early April, marking its lowest level in months. This drop was triggered by President Donald Trump's sweeping tariff measures, which reignited fears of a global recession and led to a sharp sell-off in risk assets.
Cuban, however, appeared unfazed. During an X conversation, he called <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44704749/mark-cuban-pitched-bitcoin-as-a-hedge-against-economic-turmoilno-surprises-the-shark-still-finds-btc-a-better-buy-amid-tariff-woes">Bitcoin &#8220;a better buy,&#8221;</a> potentially suggesting that firms may benefit from hoarding the asset.

Two months later, his statements sound like good investment advice.

Since Cuban called Bitcoin a better buy, the cryptocurrency has jumped 27% and nearly 40% from its April lows. So, if you invested $1000 in Bitcoin following Cuban's commentary, it would be worth $1270 today.

Bitcoin Is Up 27% Since Mark Cuban Called The Top Cryptocurrency A 'Better Buy' Amid Trump Tariff-Fueled Downturn

Cathie Wood, founder of ARK Invest, says history shows artificial intelligence will generate "many more jobs than it displaces," pushing back on fears that chatbots and humanoid robots will wipe out careers.
What Happened: Wood made the case in a weekend X thread after taping Steven Bartlett's "Diary of a CEO" <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZznpMh0DegE&amp;list=PL22egh3ok4cP0T7UZRmP6TMLErZYWMN-l">podcast</a>. Wood told Bartlett that baby-boomer retirements and smaller follow-on generations already constrain the labor pool, so companies will use AI to boost productivity rather than slash payrolls. 
"We'll see more people taking risks on themselves," she said, predicting the traditional corporation "will change radically."
After the interview, Wood asked OpenAI's ChatGPT and xAI's Grok 3 to list occupations that don't exist yet. &#8220;ChatGPT and Grok3 were full of job ideas, &#8221; she said. She urged followers to "test them yourselves" and include sci-fi, &#8220;ideas from futurists&#8221; in their prompts.

The post aligns with Wood's long-held thesis that innovation cycles ultimately expand employment.

Motorcar Parts of America, Casey's General Stores And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Monday

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) has announced that the state will file a lawsuit against the Trump administration over the deployment of the National Guard to quell protests in Los Angeles.
What Happened:&nbsp;Newsom revealed the lawsuit during an interview with MSNBC on Sunday. The legal action is aimed at challenging the federalization&nbsp;of the California National Guard&nbsp;by the Trump administration without the state&#8217;s consent, a move that Newsom deems unprecedented in U.S. history,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/gov-newsom-tells-president-trump-to-stand-down-amid-l-a-protests-241152581707">reported</a>&nbsp;MSNBC.
"And we're going to test that theory with a lawsuit tomorrow," Newsom stated. &#8220;They never coordinated with the governor of the state,"&nbsp;he added.
Newsom also responded to remarks by border czar Tom Homan, who implied he might arrest Newsom or Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass if they obstructed his actions. In reply, Newsom challenged him, saying, "Arrest me. Let's go."
Newsom also criticized Trump&#8217;s Truth Social post, where he praised the National Guard for a &#8220;great job&#8221; even though they weren&#8217;t deployed at the time.&nbsp;He described the post as &#8220;Orwellian, simply lying to people,&nbsp;unconstitutional, illegal act, his mess.&nbsp;We're trying to clean it&nbsp;up.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The lawsuit comes after Newsom called the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45830221/gavin-newsom-calls-deployment-of-national-guard-in-los-angeles-unlawful-says-there-was-no-problem-until-trump-got-involved-serious-breach-of-state-sovereignty">deployment </a>of National Guard troops in Los Angeles &#8220;unlawful&#8221; and a &#8220;serious breach of state sovereignty&#8221; on Sunday. The deployment, which included around 300 National Guard members, was part of Trump's broader effort to crack down on immigration protests.
Meanwhile, the protests in Los Angeles turned violent, with protesters <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45830565/multiple-waymo-vehicles-set-on-fire-during-los-angeles-anti-ice-protests-elon-musk-says-this-is-not-ok">reportedly </a>vandalizing over five of Alphabet&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Waymo robotaxis during clashes with the police. 
The protests were against the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration into the U.S., with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) carrying out high-profile raids and reportedly detaining several undocumented individuals.

Casey's Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is expected to highlight its artificial intelligence strategy at WWDC 2025, but according to top analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45787471/apples-wwdc-2025-when-how-to-watch-the-keynote-and-what-to-expect">no breakthroughs</a> are anticipated, although the company can still meet market expectations.
What Happened: On Monday, Kuo, an analyst at TF Securities, took to X, formerly Twitter and shared three key points to watch out for at Apple WWDC 2025.
He explained Apple's focus at WWDC 2025 will be on AI advancements, while other updates like UI changes and OS improvements will take a secondary role.
Kuo stated that Apple is not expected to unveil any major breakthroughs in AI technology during the event.

However, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/45788605/apple-has-at-least-two-years-before-losing-customers-despite-its-several-ai-missteps-says-gene-munst">low market expectations</a>, Apple could still meet them by clearly explaining how AI will work across its devices and offering a roadmap for its future development.
&#8220;No major breakthroughs in Apple&#8217;s AI technology are expected,&#8221; he stated, adding, &#8220;Still, with the market&#8217;s limited expectations, Apple can meet them by clearly explaining how AI features will work on devices and outlining a development timeline.&#8221;
Kuo also pointed out that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39228141/apple-intelligence-what-to-expect-from-tim-cooks-wwdc-plans-for-bringing-ai-to-iphone-ipad-and-mac">Apple's AI announcements in the past year</a> were optimistic but were met with a lack of significant AI rollouts.
He said that while Apple's hardware and chip development can support AI services, the company has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45830549/pierre-ferragu-takes-apple-to-task-for-dismissing-the-ai-revolution-has-its-head-in-the-sand">yet to differentiate itself in the AI space</a>, and there is no guarantee of a competitive advantage just because of its hardware.

WWDC 2025 Not Expected To Have Any Major AI Breakthroughs, But Apple Analyst Says Watch Out For These 3 Key Points

Reported Sunday, Bentonville Renews Partnership With GovDeals, A Liquidity Services Marketplace, To Boost Surplus Property Sales Through Online Auctions

Michael Shaulov, CEO of digital asset infrastructure provider Fireblocks, asserted that cryptocurrency has crossed the &#8220;point of no return,&#8221; with increasing acceptance and impending regulation advancing its legitimacy.
What Happened:&nbsp;In an exclusive chat with Benzinga at the recently held Consensus 2025 event, Shaulov was optimistic of the cryptocurrency sector&#8217;s future, with more individuals and institutions jumping on the bandwagon.
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s pretty clear that it&#8217;s beyond the point of no return,&#8221; Shaulov stated. &#8220;The train left the station. I think more and more people are jumping on the train&#8221;

He further said that the incoming regulation in the U.S., in whatever shape it takes, would only strengthen the reality of cryptocurrencies, offering ten times the properties, performance, speed and cost reduction compared to traditional financial systems.

Shaulov also shared findings from a recent survey that Fireblocks conducted across&nbsp;banks and payment&nbsp;companies. 
&#8220;There&#8217;s no skeptism anymore. 90% of them are either already working with stable coins or in pilots of stable coins or contemplating how they&#8217;re going to enter the space,&#8221; Shaulov revealed.
Why It Matters:&nbsp;Shaulov has been a long-standing cryptocurrency advocate. He previously referred to Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/10/35142263/exclusive-fireblocks-ceo-calls-bitcoin-an-insurance-policy-against-government-collapse">&#8220;insurance instrument&#8221;</a> against potential government system collapses.
His optimistic outlook on the sector, particularly on stablecoins, comes amid the advancement of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45510057/senate-crypto-bill-passes-key-vote-genius-act-moves-toward-final-passage" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">GENIUS Act</a>, a proposed legislation aiming to establish the first U.S. regulatory framework for issuers of stablecoins like Tether (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDT</a>) and USD Coin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>).

Meanwhile, stablecoin issuing company Circle Internet Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRL#NYSE">CRL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45821941/circle-crcl-stock-surges-after-successful-ipo-debut-whats-going-on">recorded a blockbuster debut</a> last week, popping 168% on its first day.

Crypto At 'Point Of No Return,' Says Fireblocks CEO And Here's Why He Is Confident About It

Despite the years of escalating trade, technology, and geopolitical tensions, historian and economist Niall Ferguson says that the United States and China remain entangled.
What Happened: Appearing on Bloomberg&#8217;s Wall Street Week on Saturday, alongside former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers, Ferguson used a term that he says he hasn&#8217;t used in a while, &#8220;Chimerica,&#8221; referring to the symbiotic relationship between the U.S. and China.
Ferguson, however, highlights the deeply asymmetrical nature of this relationship, which he had referred to as being &#8220;unsustainable&#8221; all the way back in 2007.

&#8220;The U.S. does the importing, China does the exporting, the U.S. does the consuming, and China does the saving,&#8221; he says, referring to the argument he had made several decades ago, stating that &#8220;Chimerica&#8221; would eventually turn into Chimaera, a mythical fire-breathing monster that causes destruction.
&#8220;The interesting thing&#8221; about this, Ferguson notes, is that despite the increasing hostility between the two nations, the economic relationship between the two countries has been &#8220;extraordinarily persistent,&#8221; with the U.S. still importing enormous amounts from China.
&#8220;Somehow Chimerica and Cold War II seem capable of coexisting,&#8221; he says, at which point Summers weighs in to say that he likes to call this phenomenon &#8220;hostile codependence.&#8221;
Ferguson&#8217;s comments underscore a key challenge facing the Trump Administration, that even in the event of deglobalization, it&#8217;s hard to vie for a clean break. 
Why It Matters: The idea that the U.S. and China are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45808431/xi-has-bowed-to-reality-says-china-analyst-urges-more-engagement-between-leaders-to-resolve-trade-issues-no-substitute-for-direct-negotiations-with-trump">economically bound</a> to each other is gaining traction fast, with leading China analysts such as Jeremy Chan saying last week that &#8220;Xi has bowed to reality,&#8221; and is thus looking for direct negotiations with President Donald Trump.
