Rigetti’s Buy the Dip Price Revealed[Stocks](https://moneymorning.com/category/article/stocks/) # Rigetti’s Buy the Dip Price Revealed  by Chris Johnson  October 22, 2025  Share it: ## Buy the Dip? Rigetti (RGTI) Pulls Back to Key Support After 250% Rally Rigetti Computing (RGTI) shares have dropped 30% from their October highs, marking a standard technical pullback after a 250% advance from mid-September. The decline reflects short-term profit-taking across the quantum and nuclear sectors, where speculative momentum had overheated. This morning, Rigetti is trading higher after reports that the Trump administration is considering taking direct equity stakes in key U.S. technology and materials companies. The list is now growing to include quantum computing developers, Intel (INTC), and rare earth element producers critical to advanced chip manufacturing. The plan, according to early reports, would establish a strategic technology investment framework aimed at securing U.S. dominance in next-generation computing and supply chain independence from China. The development reinforces the view that quantum computing is moving from speculative frontier to national priority status. It also adds a fundamental catalyst for Rigetti, which stands to benefit from any federal capital infusion or procurement alignment tied to domestic quantum infrastructure. ## The Technicals Say Rigetti’s Uptrend is Still Intact Rigetti’s 50-day moving average, which flipped bullish back in April, remains in a positive trend. In addition, the 200-day moving average is also sloping higher, helping define a bullish long-term trend structure. Even after a five-day, 30% correction, momentum remains intact, and the stock is now approaching short-term support near $40, which aligns with its 20-day moving average and round-number psychology. This zone has already started attracting dip-buyers.  ## Rigetti Sentiment, A Double-Edge Sword Rigetti is still in the early discovery phase for most investors, but short-term traders have become overly bullish, perhaps too quickly. Elevated call option activity and outsized attention from quantum-focused retail traders created a frothy setup that needed to cool off. Now it has. Importantly, Wall Street analysts remain bullish, with the average price target sitting at $26, well below the stock’s current price. Given Rigetti's technical leadership in quantum, and recent developments in both private and public quantum computing, expect to see higher targets in the coming weeks or shortly after the company’s earnings in November. Rigetti is currently scheduled to report earnings on November 18 (unconfirmed). The setup into that date may provide a catalyst for the next leg higher, especially if guidance continues to reinforce the company's long-term growth story. #### **Key Levels to Watch:** - **Buy the Dip Zone:** $40 - **Back the Truck Up Zone:** $30 - **Resistance:** $50 - **Long-Term Price Target:** $75 ## Bottom Line: With the bullish trend still intact, momentum pulling back to support, and earnings on deck, Rigetti presents a compelling short-term buy-the-dip opportunity. Traders should watch the $40 level closely as this price holds double barreled support based on the stock’s 20-day moving average and round-numbered price. A hold at $40 should trigger a new rally to $50. Long-term investors can view any pullbacks toward $30 as rare opportunities to build a position ahead of Rigetti’s climb toward $75. **Beat the market, without relying on brokers or biased institutions.** Email(Required) X/Twitter This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
