Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Travelers Companies Stock In The Last 20 Years

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) has set the investment world abuzz with the announcement of its first-of-a-kind <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43844926/quantum-computing-stocks-rgti-qubt-ionq-qbts-cheer-microsofts-majorana-1-launch-satya-nadella-calls-it-a-physics-and-fabrication-breakthrough">quantum chip, Majorana 1</a>. As excitement builds around the breakthrough, ETFs with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">exposure to quantum computing</a> and semiconductor advancements are drawing increased investor interest.
Investors looking to capitalize on the quantum computing revolution can explore several ETFs with exposure to key players in this space.
Defiance Quantum ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QTUM#NYSE">QTUM</a>)
QTUM provides exposure to companies engaged in quantum computing, AI, and machine learning. With holdings in Microsoft, IBM (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), and Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), it is well-positioned to benefit from advancements in quantum technology.
Defiance ETFs CEO Sylvia Jablonski highlighted how Majorana 1 has already driven investor interest in QTUM. "The good thing about that ETF is it holds the large-cap, quality, balance-sheet-established players like MSFT but mixes in pure plays like IonQ and Rigetti as well."

Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>)
AIQ invests in firms at the forefront of AI and computational advancements, including Microsoft. With quantum computing playing a crucial role in AI's evolution, the fund could see increased investor interest.
VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>)
While primarily focused on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">semiconductor companies</a>, SMH includes exposure to firms developing quantum computing hardware. Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Qualcomm (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) and Broadcom are among its top holdings. Given that quantum computing relies on advanced semiconductor technology, any advancements in this sector could indirectly boost the ETF.
Sylvia Jablonski on the ETF Impact of Microsoft's Majorana 1
Jablonski weighed in on the implications of Microsoft's quantum computing advancement, emphasizing its significance for ETFs in the space.
Satya Nadella, Microsoft's Chairman and CEO, described the chip as a "physics and fabrication breakthrough" rather than a pure quantum computing leap. He compared it to the transistor moment of quantum computing, a milestone that could pave the way for the technology's practical application.
Jablonski reinforced this view, stating, "He's saying that we are at a key inflection point where quantum computing transitions from being experimental to practical and scalable. It reminds me of the ChatGPT moment."
Jablonski believes that Microsoft's breakthrough could have lasting implications. "Microsoft's breakthrough accelerates quantum error correction and scalability. It could lead to sustained confidence in the sector. When you have quality companies like Alphabet, Microsoft, and IBM blessing these innovations, that bodes well for the consumer and his or her sentiment on the quantum sector."
According to Jablonski, QTUM ETF balances both risk and reward effectively. "We have both—having the large caps serves as a ballast for risk on volatility on the small caps."
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/25/02/43885743/microsofts-quantum-leap-hits-a-technical-snag-death-cross-looms-large">Microsoft&#8217;s Quantum Leap Hits A Technical Snag: Death Cross Looms Large</a>
Are We Closer to Real-World Applications?
Jablonski sees practical applications emerging sooner than skeptics expect. "Microsoft's error correction claims, if validated, represent significant progress. Quantum computing is already used in certain workflows, risk analysis, supply chain, and logistics cases."
Beyond quantum computing, AI-driven ETFs are seeing strong momentum, particularly in automation, robotics, and generative AI. "We also think that 6G and the future of tech connectivity will be a big topic this year," Jablonski noted.
The Road Ahead
Although high error rates and commercialization challenges still limit quantum computing's immediate applications, Microsoft's Majorana 1 chip signals a major step forward. With ETFs offering a diversified approach to investing in this space, investors can position themselves to benefit from the quantum computing revolution while mitigating risks associated with individual stocks.

Drug Compounders Sue U.S. Drug Regulator Over Removal Of Novo Nordisk Diabetes, Weight Loss Drugs From Shortage List

Ranking among the major players in the infrastructural arena of artificial intelligence, Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) essentially provides the backbone for data centers. Primarily, its products undergird networking, custom accelerator and storage solutions. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43761300/intel-could-be-split-in-two-as-broadcom-and-tsmc-explore-deals-trump-white-house-resists-foreign-ownership-report">concerns related to a possible buyout</a> of the chip design and marketing business of Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) has seen AVGO stock decline conspicuously. Ultimately, though, history has proven such dips tend to spark buying activity.
From a fundamental perspective, Broadcom has garnered a reputation for its ability to acquire, integrate and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/22/05/27415720/broadcom-to-acquire-vmware-in-61-billion-deal-what-investors-need-to-know">extract value from major acquisitions</a>. Notably, the tech giant bought out VMware, at the time a leading cloud computing and virtualization company. Broadcom rebranded the acquired firm and incorporated it into its existing infrastructure and security software solutions unit. Still, the latest report puts this reputation to the test.
Early last week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Broadcom has been analyzing the viability of acquiring Intel's chip design and marketing unit. On the other end, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) is exploring the prospect of acquiring Intel's chip plants. Broadcom and TSMC are not working together and the talks remain preliminary.
Nevertheless, the prospect of Broadcom buying a component of Intel's business worried several investors. Among the major tech players, Intel has lagged the competition through a variety of missteps and self-inflicted wounds. Naturally, a possible deal would raise concerns about integration challenges and broader financial implications.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Investors Usually Come Around to Bolster AVGO Stock</h2>
While circumstances aren't particularly favorable for AVGO stock at the moment, traders should note that historically, the security benefits from an upward bias. To be clear, this framework doesn't guarantee long-side success. Generally speaking, though, bullish traders — based on prevailing trends — are likelier to be rewarded for their acquisitiveness. What's more, investors tend to view dips in AVGO as buying opportunities.
Let's consider the raw numbers. Using data from January 2019, a position entered in AVGO stock at the beginning of the week has around a 57% chance of rising by the end of it. Over an eight-week period, this baseline probability varies but eventually culminates in long odds of approximately 69%. Again, traders who adopt a bullish perspective are more aligned with AVGO's natural rhythm.
What's really interesting is that this behavior tilts even more favorably for the bulls whenever AVGO encounters volatility. Last week, the equity lost just under 5%. Under similar circumstances, the subsequent week following the negative anchor event sees long odds dip below the baseline probability to approximately 54%. Therefore, it's not surprising that this week started off in the red.

Nevertheless, based on past data, the dynamic long odds (accounting for data within specific parameters) from the second week onward tend to rise above the baseline probability. Stated differently, investors eventually buy the discount in AVGO stock.
To reiterate, history isn't guaranteed to repeat itself. However, AVGO stock may be one of the more reliable trading ideas to bet on because it's so heavily traded. In other words, the pricing behavior is a tad more predictable. Case in point is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43288552/options-corner-broadcoms-discount-entices-but-watch-for-stormy-clouds-ahead">AVGO's behavior under extreme volatility</a>. Back when the DeepSeek impact cratered tech stocks, AVGO followed a predictable pattern, which appears to have only been undone by the aforementioned Intel buyout report.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Back At The Wheel Again</h2>
In anticipation of Broadcom stock eventually bouncing back from its downward spell, aggressive traders can target long-side options strategies for derivatives expiring March 7. Historically, AVGO tends to post a median return of around 5.7% two weeks following a five-day period of modest volatility, assuming the materialization of the positive scenario.
With this forecast in mind, speculators may look to the 220/225 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bull-spread">bull call spread</a>. This transaction involves buying the $220 call and simultaneously selling the $225 call, using the proceeds from the short call to partially offset the debit paid of the long call. Granted, this setup caps the upside reward at the $225 short call strike price. However, the benefit is that the net transaction is significantly cheaper than buying the $220 call outright.
One wrinkle to consider is that Broadcom will disclose its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AVGO/earnings">first-quarter earnings report</a> on March 6. As such, market makers are likely pricing in a volatility crush, which may be why the same 220/225 bull spread expiring March 21 features the same net debit cost — which is $210 at time of writing — as the earlier-expiring spread.
Ultimately, the deciding factor will come down to the trader's perspective and risk tolerance. Still, for speculators seeking to extract a quick profit, the March 7 spread may be more attractive, especially in mitigating opportunity costs from an unnecessarily lengthy spread.

Citadel Securities is preparing to enter cryptocurrency market-making after the Trump administration has signaled a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43177482/trump-signs-executive-order-on-crypto-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-evaluated">friendlier regulatory environment</a>.
What Happened: The market-making firm is moving to establish itself as a liquidity provider for digital assets, marking a significant change in its approach to cryptocurrency trading, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-24/crypto-citadel-securities-plans-to-trade-digital-coins-on-exchanges?embedded-checkout=true">according</a> to a Bloomberg report.
The firm, known for its dominance in equities and fixed-income markets, is now seeking approval to operate on major crypto exchanges such as Coinbase (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), Binance and Crypto.com, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Citadel Securities had previously avoided major crypto trading platforms due to regulatory uncertainty and concerns over market structures. 
Following the collapse of FTX in 2022, scrutiny over conflicts of interest and mismanagement in the sector reinforced the firm's hesitation to participate. 
However, with Trump's administration actively reshaping digital asset regulations, Citadel is preparing to expand into cryptocurrency market-making, focusing initially on non-U.S. markets. 
According to industry insiders, the firm aims to establish a presence on multiple exchanges, with its level of involvement dependent on evolving regulatory clarity in the U.S.
Citadel Securities has previously engaged with cryptocurrency markets through institutional channels, evidenced by its collaboration with Charles Schwab and Fidelity Investments to launch EDX Markets in 2023.
The exchange was structured to reflect traditional financial markets, addressing concerns about transparency, custody, and market integrity in crypto trading.

Why It Matters: The shift in Citadel's stance aligns with Trump's pro-crypto policies, which have removed regulatory barriers that previously discouraged institutional participation in digital assets.
Trump's administration quickly introduced executive orders supporting digital assets and appointed Hester Peirce to lead an SEC task force on cryptocurrency regulation. 
Trump has pledged to make the United States the &#8220;crypto capital of the planet,&#8221; a stance that major financial firms are now factoring into their long-term market strategies.
Citadel's entry into the crypto space places it alongside established trading firms such as Jump Crypto and Jane Street.
While Jump and Jane Street maintained a presence in the sector, Citadel's new move represents a deliberate expansion, indicating growing institutional confidence in digital asset trading as U.S. regulations evolve.
