美国商务部周四向FOX Business证实，特朗普政府并未与美国量子计算公司洽谈入股事宜，此举是对《华尔街日报》一篇暗示政府正考虑投资IonQ、Rigetti Computing和D-Wave Quantum等公司的报道的回应。该报道援引匿名消息人士称，政府曾考虑通过投资初创企业来加强美国在尖端技术领域对中国的优势。尽管此前政府曾投资英特尔和MP Materials，但此次商务部的否认表明，在直接拥有前沿科技公司股权方面，美国政府仍持谨慎态度，尽管其正加强对中国量子领域的审查并增加对美国研究的支持。量子计算被视为一项具有深远影响的新兴技术，涉及国防和人工智能，预计未来五年内将出现可商用的量子计算机。

🔬 商务部明确否认政府洽谈入股量子计算公司：与《华尔街日报》的报道相悖，商务部发言人向FOX Business证实，美国政府目前并未与包括IonQ、Rigetti Computing和D-Wave Quantum在内的量子计算公司进行任何关于入股的谈判。

💡 政府对量子计算的潜在投资动机：此前报道援引匿名消息人士称，政府曾考虑通过投资量子计算初创企业来巩固美国在先进技术领域对中国的竞争优势，量子计算被视为一项对国防和人工智能具有重大影响的关键新兴技术。

⚖️ 政府在直接股权投资上的谨慎态度：尽管特朗普政府此前曾对英特尔和MP Materials等公司进行过股权投资，但商务部此次的否认表明，政府在直接拥有前沿科技公司股权方面仍然采取谨慎立场，即使其正在加大对中国量子领域的审查力度并增加对国内研究的支持。

📈 量子计算的未来前景与当前投资模式：量子计算被视为具有颠覆性潜力的技术，分析师预计未来五年内将出现可商用的量子计算机，但目前该领域全球营收尚不足7.5亿美元，且美国联邦投资主要集中在研究资助和公私合作，而非直接股权投资。

The Trump administration is not in talks to take equity stakes in U.S. quantum computing firms, the Commerce Department confirmed to FOX Business Thursday, pushing back on a Wall Street Journal report that suggested the government was exploring investments in companies including IonQ, Rigetti Computing, and D-Wave Quantum.

"The Commerce Department is not currently negotiating equity stakes with quantum computing companies," a Commerce spokesperson told FOX Business.

The statement came after the Journal cited unnamed sources claiming the administration had considered taking stakes in select quantum startups as part of a broader effort to strengthen America’s edge against China in advanced technology.

COMMERCE SECRETARY LUTNICK CELEBRATES TRUMP'S 'MONSTER' EU TRADE DEAL AS 'HUGE' WIN FOR AMERICA

According to CNBC, the Trump administration previously took a 10% stake in Intel and a 15% stake in MP Materials, a rare-earth miner critical to national security.

Quantum computing is viewed as one of the most consequential emerging technologies, with far-reaching implications for defense and artificial intelligence (AI). Analysts expect viable commercial quantum machines within five years, capable of breakthroughs ranging from code-breaking to drug discovery.

The field of quantum computing is largely experimental. Global revenue totaled under $750 million in 2024, according to McKinsey, with most U.S. federal investment directed toward research grants and public-private partnerships rather than equity stakes.

HOWARD LUTNICK RIPS ATLANTA FED GDPNOW CONTRACTION PREDICTION

As CNBC reported, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has argued that the government should benefit when taxpayer money fuels innovation. 

However, the department’s latest denial suggests Washington is still treading carefully when it comes to direct ownership in frontier tech, even as it ramps up scrutiny of China’s quantum sector and increases support for American research.
