Quantinuum (NASDAQ: QNT) became the first-ever quantum computing pure play to join the market via an initial public offering (IPO) when it debuted earlier this month.

The company originally proposed selling just over 21 million shares at somewhere between $45 and $60, before upping that to 26.5 million shares at between $53 and $55. The stock opened trading at $68 on June 4, above its eventual $60 IPO price, before closing its first day of trading up just 1% at $60.36.
