Mizuho just turned up the heat on D-Wave Quantum (QBTS), lifting its price target to $35 while holding firm on its Outperform rating. That's a bullish signal you don't want to sleep on if you're watching the quantum computing space.
Analyst conviction here matters. Maintaining an Outperform rating alongside a higher price target tells you Mizuho isn't just riding momentum — they're doubling down.
