Analysts still bullish on quantum stocks RGTI and IONQ despite recent selloff
Analysts still bullish on quantum stocks RGTI and IONQ despite recent selloff
Quantum computing stocks have been dropping lately after massive runs in 2024 and 2025, but Wall Street still sees a lot of upside for a few specific names.
Rigetti Computing (RGTI) is down about 32% this year. They are expected to release a 108-qubit system at the end of Q1. Mizuho just reiterated a buy rating with a $43 price target, implying 162% upside from here. It is definitely a speculative play right now since they generate very little revenue and have hundreds of millions in losses.
IonQ (IONQ) is down 28% this year. They recently hit a world record for error rate and are planning to demonstrate a 256-qubit system this year. Rosenblatt maintained a buy rating and a $100 price target, which implies 197% upside. IONQ is further along financially with $130 million in revenue for 2025 and $2.4 billion in cash, though they are still taking significant losses.
Both are basically pure bets on whether quantum technology can actually be commercialized at scale.

Still feels like pure moonshot territory, huge upside if it works, but all comes down to execution and real commercialization.
