Quantum Science and Technology are powerful forces of creative destruction in the global economy. The business and investment landscape will continue to be shaped by these forces. Investors who choose not to follow these developments do so at their own peril. Disruptive technologies often foil the most admirable intentions of the best companies while providing extraordinary opportunities for investors who are able to see the positive benefits of risk. Given, however, the amount of creative destruction that will accompany the quantum revolution, investors must be prepared. No industry or company will be immune from advances in quantum science and technology in the twenty-first century.
Author Stephen Waite takes the reader on a detailed and comprehensive tour of how quantum theories pervade our business and investment choices. He writes that quantum-based technologies will bring us to the brink of a new level of civilization, a new level of history.
In the past fifty years, the composition of the U.S. stock market has changed beyond recognition. Going forward, the models, mindsets, and metrics investors use to analyze companies must be updated. Would-be critics of new technologies, perhaps still feeling the pain of the dotcom crash, however, can take heart. Booms and busts in the stock market can take place after a major new technology is introduced.
Science and technology radically transform the way we live, work, and play. Scientists, who boldly look beyond the next decade, speak of a time when the pace of technical change will become too great for human intelligence to comprehend, rendering short-term prediction impossible. Many on Wall Street and on Main Street will have difficulty comprehending the investment implications of accelerating change. Change is certain: change in the markets, changes in products, changes in accounting methodologies, and changes in our life spans.
Read Quantum Investing and prepare yourself for the future.
