D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) Stock Slides After CES 2026 Rally: Latest News, Analyst Price Targets, and 2026 Forecasts (Dec. 23, 2025)

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) is giving investors a familiar late-December combo: a euphoric spike, followed by a sharp reality-check pullback. After surging about 20% on Monday (Dec. 22), QBTS reversed course on Tuesday (Dec. 23) and closed down roughly 9%, as traders digested the catalyst behind the jump—and the stock’s already sky-high expectations.
