QTUM: Riding The Quantum Wave, Without Drowning In Risk
Quantum computing is still early-stage; real-world applications and winners are unclear, making stock picking risky after recent price surges. Defiance Quantum ETF offers diversified exposure to quantum and AI tech, balancing risk and potential upside better than individual quantum stocks. Compared to QQQ, QTUM captures quantum-driven alpha while maintaining broad tech exposure, making it a compelling portfolio addition.

QTUM: Better Buy Than The Quantum Stocks
QTUM ETF offers exposure to quantum computing and machine learning, but isn't a pure quantum play; it's a mix of tech, semiconductors, and some defense stocks. Despite dilution from non-core holdings, I see value in QTUM as a small, diversified addition, especially for access to potential high-growth small caps. Quantum computing's future is uncertain, but an ETF approach is safer than picking individual stocks, as winners will be weighted higher over time.

Valuation metrics show a high weighted P/E ratio of 30, making it hard to justify a Buy due to the need for substantial earnings growth.

QTUM: The Fund Has Insidiously Changed (Rating Downgrade)
QTUM's holdings have shifted from pure-play quantum computing and AI/ML firms to diversified large-cap companies, diluting its original investment focus. I initially rated QTUM as a buy for aggressive investors, but now downgrade it to a hold due to these changes. The fund's new top holdings, like Alibaba and Orange, do not align with the quantum and AI/ML focus, creating a "drag."
