D-Wave stock slides into year-end as quantum peers retreat in thin trade

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 02:54 ET — Market closed. D-Wave Quantum Inc shares were last down 8.1% at $25.29, extending a late-week pullback in U.S.-listed quantum-computing names.

That can leave price action looking dramatic even when the broader market backdrop is relatively calm. Reuters U.S. stocks ended nearly flat in a light post-Christmas session on Friday, Reuters reported. Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, said the market was “catching our breath” after a

BigBear.ai stock in the spotlight as shareholder vote deadline looms

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 02:44 ET — Market closed BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (BBAI) shares fell 4.9% on Friday to close at $5.73, with investors heading into Monday focused on a looming shareholder vote tied to the company’s ability to issue more stock. The ballot matters because it would raise BigBear.ai’s authorized shares — the maximum number of shares a company is permitted to issue. That added capacity can support financing or stock-based deals, but it can also dilute existing holders by shrinking each investor’s ownership percentage. BigBear.ai said electronic voting would remain open until 11:59 p.m. ET on Dec.
