Prediction: This Quantum Computing Stock Will Still Be Worth More Than Berkshire Hathaway, Palantir, and Tesla Combined in 2030

Key Points

At the moment, just 11 publicly traded companies can claim a market capitalization above $1 trillion.

That elite trillion-dollar club includes tech juggernauts such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) , Microsoft , Apple , Alphabet , Amazon , Meta Platforms , Broadcom , Taiwan Semiconductor , Tesla , along with Warren Buffett's diversified conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway and oil giant Saudi Aramco.

Among them, Nvidia reigns supreme. With a market cap of roughly $4.4 trillion, it's the most valuable company in the world.

Not only do I think Nvidia is positioned to maintain that crown, I also expect it to remain worth more than Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, and ambitious AI player Palantir Technologies combined over the next five years, thanks in no small part to the transformative potential of its quantum computing business.

Quantum computing is the next frontier of AI

Quantum computing is widely regarded as the natural successor to classical computing. Traditional computers store and process information in binary formats -- 0s and 1s. Quantum machines use qubits -- units that can have values of 1 or 0, but also can exist in complex linear states that are combinations of 1 and 0 through a phenomenon known as superposition.

In theory, this gives quantum computers the ability to rapidly tackle problems that would take today's most advanced supercomputers prohibitive amounts of time to solve -- from cracking high-level cryptography to drug discovery to climate modeling.

Although the quantum computing industry remains in its infancy, expectations are sky-high. Global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company projects that breakthroughs in quantum applications could generate trillions in economic value over the coming decades.

How Nvidia is playing a critical role in the quantum era

A wave of smaller innovators is attempting to make headway in the quantum computing landscape, exploring avenues such as trapped-ion technology, annealing, and photonic qubits in a race to unlock the next generational breakthrough.

Nvidia, by contrast, isn't positioning itself as a singular hardware architecture. What investors may not fully appreciate is that the company is already deeply embedded in the quantum ecosystem. Its graphics processing units (GPUs) are increasingly being used to run advanced simulations, particularly in hybrid systems that bridge quantum and classical computing.
