ILXQuant Global Quantum Computing Basket Index
Fixed-basket index of 19 companies with genuine quantum computing exposure, extended beyond the US pure-plays to the Japanese national programmes, European enabling hardware and the cryogenic and control supply chain. The basket holds qubit pure-plays across trapped-ion, superconducting and annealing modalities (IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave, Quantum Computing Inc.), corporate quantum programmes (IBM, Alphabet, Microsoft, Honeywell, NVIDIA, Intel, Fujitsu, NEC, Hitachi, Thales, Archer Materials), cryogenics and enabling hardware (Oxford Instruments, Atlas Copco) and the control, measurement and post-quantum security layer (Keysight, Arqit). The cryogenic and control layer is where near-term revenue is real -- every qubit modality needs it regardless of which modality eventually wins. Sibling index ILXQCB holds the narrower ten-name US-centric expression. Rebalances quarterly to equal weight. Non-USD holdings are converted to USD.
