Market Signal Briefing

Dogecoin opened the session with growing confidence, as sentiment indicators show traders turning more bullish.

The latest MarketProphet readings show crowd sentiment at +0.53 and smart-money sentiment at +1.17, at press time. This created a rare alignment between retail traders and institutional-level actors. 

This alignment often appears during the early stages of recovery attempts because both groups recognize improving conditions at the same time. 

Moreover, Dogecoin [DOGE] strengthens its short-term structure as sentiment flips positive just after stabilizing above the $0.14974 support level. 

This growing conviction reduces the probability of deeper retracement and increases the likelihood of sustained accumulation. 

Additionally, the combined sentiment signals provide a strong psychological tailwind for DOGE’s ongoing breakout attempt.

Dogecoin breaks out and eyes reversal
Dogecoin successfully broke out of its descending symmetrical triangle, giving buyers their first meaningful structural advantage in several weeks. 

The price now hovers above the crucial $0.14974 support, where bulls continue to anchor fresh strength. 

The RSI’s push toward the mid-40s shows early momentum improvement after a long stretch of weakness, signaling better participation from buyers. 

Dogecoin still faces supply pressure between $0.15 and $0.16, although the breakout signals fading seller influence. 

A move toward the $0.18190 resistance could confirm a stronger trend reversal and unlock a more aggressive upside phase. 

However, bulls must defend current levels to prevent a slide back into the triangle, which would weaken the recovery structure forming now.

Taker Buy CVD strengthens buyer control
Spot Taker CVD continues to show dominant buy-side pressure, with buyers controlling executed orders across the entire 90-day window. 

This trend reinforces the structural breakout because it shows real demand flowing into Dogecoin rather than brief speculative spikes. 

Buyers repeatedly absorb sell-side attempts, especially during minor dips, which strengthens overall market resilience. 

Moreover, consistent CVD strength usually appears before more decisive expansions because it reveals the presence of committed players rather than short-term positioning. 

This behavior aligns perfectly with DOGE’s technical improvement and supports its ability to sustain higher lows. 

Although overhead resistance still limits near-term movement, persistent taker aggression increases the probability of continued upward pressure and a more stable recovery.

Long traders dominate DOGE positioning
At press time, the Long/Short Ratio on Binance showed strong optimism, with 71.77% of accounts holding long positions against only 28.23% short.

This ratio of 2.54 highlights aggressive bullish positioning, as traders anticipate further continuation after the breakout.

Such patterns often emerge during early trend reversals, when traders recognize shifting momentum and adjust their strategies accordingly.

However, heavy long dominance can amplify volatility if rapid pullbacks occur, so market participants must remain cautious. 

Even with that risk, the current positioning supports Dogecoin’s broader bullish narrative because it aligns with rising sentiment, improving technical structure, and strong CVD behavior. 

Additionally, the ratio demonstrates conviction from active participants rather than passive reaction, which strengthens the credibility of the ongoing recovery phase.

Funding Rates reinforce bullish momentum
At the time of writing, DOGE’s OI-Weighted Funding Rate sat at +0.0032%, confirming that long traders willingly pay funding to maintain their positions.

This development matters because funding turned positive during the breakout phase, reflecting genuine confidence rather than forced directional exposure.

Funding stayed mostly positive throughout late November, matching improvements seen in crowd sentiment, smart-money positioning, and Long/Short Ratios. 

Healthy funding levels often appear during early recovery stages because traders support upside momentum with sustained long exposure. 

Furthermore, positive funding signals controlled optimism rather than excessive leverage, which helps maintain market stability. This combination strengthens DOGE’s short-term outlook and supports the possibility of continuation if bulls keep defending nearby support levels.

Is a stronger Dogecoin recovery forming?
Dogecoin now benefits from rising sentiment, a clean breakout, strong CVD pressure, confident long positioning, and supportive funding. 

While DOGE still needs to clear $0.18190 to confirm a stronger reversal, current metrics favor buyers and improve the probability of continued recovery.

As long as bulls protect the $0.14974 support range, Dogecoin maintains a constructive structure capable of extending higher.

Final Thoughts

Dogecoin’s breakout, rising sentiment, and strong buyer metrics suggest growing confidence in a sustained recovery.
Holding support at $0.14974 remains critical, as it underpins the bullish structure and potential upside continuation.

Bitcoin has managed to reclaim the $90,000 level after days of intense volatility, but upward momentum remains limited as the market continues to battle uncertainty and fear. While bulls have regained some ground, selling pressure is still dominating sentiment, and speculation about the start of a new bear market continues to grow. Many analysts warn that the recent bounce may not be enough to shift the broader trend unless stronger demand returns.

According to fresh data from Darkfost, short-term stress among investors has eased slightly. The amount of BTC sent to exchanges at a loss has dropped sharply, now sitting around 11,600 BTC—significantly lower than the extreme 67,000 BTC capitulation spike recorded on November 22nd. This decline suggests that panic-driven selling may be cooling off, giving the market a temporary moment of stabilization.

However, despite this improvement, Bitcoin still faces strong headwinds. Investors remain cautious, liquidity conditions are tight, and macro uncertainty continues to weigh on risk assets. For now, BTC must hold above the $90K region and show sustained strength to avoid renewed downside pressure. The coming sessions may determine whether this rebound marks the start of recovery—or just a pause before another leg lower.

Short-Term Holders Face a Critical Decision Point
Darkfost adds that the amount of BTC in profit being sent to exchanges by short-term holders remains relatively low at around 9,500 BTC. However, a slight increase has appeared as Bitcoin climbed back above $90K, showing that some STHs have begun testing the market to secure small gains or reduce their exposure.

This subtle shift highlights a growing tension among recent buyers, who must choose between waiting for a full return to break even or selling now to minimize further losses.

Bitcoin STH P&L To Exchanges | Source: Darkfost
This situation creates a delicate environment. Even though selling pressure has eased, STHs remain highly sensitive to small price movements, and their behavior often dictates short-term market direction. The past few days have been unusually calm compared to the violent capitulation seen earlier in the month, and that calmness is actually constructive. It suggests that panic has temporarily subsided and the market is trying to find balance.

What becomes critical now is monitoring how STHs react as Bitcoin approaches their realized price. If they hold and confidence increases, BTC could gain enough stability to push higher. If they sell aggressively, renewed downside pressure could quickly return. The next move from this cohort will likely set the tone for the coming weeks.

Bitcoin Attempts Recovery But Faces Heavy Overhead Resistance
Bitcoin’s daily chart shows the asset attempting a recovery after reaching a capitulation low near $80K, but the structure remains fragile. Price has reclaimed the $90K area, yet momentum is limited as BTC trades below the 50-day and 100-day moving averages—both of which continue sloping downward, signaling sustained bearish pressure.

The 200-day moving average sits higher, reinforcing the broader downtrend that has formed since early October’s $126K peak.

Recent candles reflect a hesitant rebound: upward wicks show sellers defending every push toward $92K–$94K, while the tight body ranges highlight indecision. Volume has cooled significantly compared with the panic-driven sell-off earlier in November, suggesting that forced selling has eased but strong buy-side conviction is still missing.

Structurally, BTC remains below key resistance clusters formed during its previous consolidation. Reclaiming these zones will be essential for invalidating the bearish trend. Until then, every bounce risks becoming a lower high within a broader corrective structure.

On the downside, the $85K–$87K region remains the most important support. A breakdown below it could reopen the path toward deeper corrective targets. For now, Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize, but bulls must reclaim higher levels soon to shift market sentiment and avoid renewed downside pressure.

Nasdaq’s International Securities Exchange (ISE) has decided that Bitcoin options are hot right now.

Summary

Nasdaq ISE is seeking to raise the trading cap for BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) options from 250,000 to 1 million contracts.
Deribit — still the dominant crypto-options exchange — reached a record ~$50.27B in BTC options OI with 453,820 active contracts and nearly doubled its 2024 trading volume.
The SEC is reviewing the cap-increase request as demand keeps accelerating.

According to a regulatory filing, the ISE wants to raise the trading limit for BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) from a modest 250,000 contracts to a cool 1 million.

This is Nasdaq’s second request for a bigger trading cap, after they bumped the limit by a factor of 10 just earlier this year.

Nasdaq ISE argues the limit increase is necessary to address growing institutional demand for IBIT options and to facilitate legitimate trading strategies.

IBIT vs. Deribit
At its peak in October, IBIT’s options open interest hit a jaw-dropping $50 billion.

Compare that to Deribit. As of late 2025, the world’s leading crypto‑options exchange saw its Bitcoin (BTC) options open interest hit a new record of about $50.27 billion, with roughly 453,820 active BTC contracts.

In 2024, Deribit nearly doubled its trading volume — surging 95% to more than $1.185 trillion — with options alone accounting for roughly $743 billion of that activity.

Even as regulated alternatives such as the options tied to IBIT gain traction, Deribit continues to claim a dominant share of global BTC‑options open interest. However, IBIT options now account for nearly all, or 98%, of the Bitcoin ETF options trading, according to Bloomberg News.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is still considering the request, but at this rate, it might as well just let Bitcoin go full throttle.

The company projects a 97% revenue growth this year.

One of the best artificial intelligence (AI) stocks on the planet is having a rough time in recent weeks. Despite massive growth and promise, the company's stock dropped 10% over the last month and is now about 21% below its all-time high.

Granted, this company has many detractors -- both for its eye-watering valuation and as a potential victim of the so-called AI bubble. But I'm not giving up. In fact, I believe this stock is poised for a significant comeback and is likely to set new all-time highs in 2026.

Let's take a closer look at Palantir Technologies (PLTR +1.62%)

Image source: Getty Images.

Palantir, in the words of Alex Karp
Palantir is a software and data-mining company that uses AI and thousands of data points to provide actionable insights in real time to both government agencies and commercial customers. Essentially, Palantir's software analyzes data, finds patterns, and helps users predict outcomes, run simulations, and act.

But how it works isn't easy to describe. Even its CEO, Alex Karp, was pretty non-specific when questioned by Wired. Here's his word-for-word response when asked to describe what Palantir does:

"If you're an intelligence agency, you're using us to find terrorists and organized criminals while maintaining the security and data protection of your country. Then you have the special forces. How do you know where your troops are? How do you get in and out of the battlefield as safely as possible, avoiding mines, avoiding enemies? Then there's Palantir on the commercial side. The shorthand is if you're doing anything that involves operational intelligence, whether it's analytics or AI, you're going to have to find something like our products."

That's why the company's bootcamps have been effective. Palantir has been rolling out its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) in five-day bootcamps to demonstrate to potential customers how its generative AI-powered platforms can enhance their businesses. The events help customers understand how AI can best work for them, develop initial use cases for the software, and train users on it.

That's an amazingly quick turnaround, which is why Palantir has been growing so fast -- particularly in the commercial segment.

Palantir's U.S. commercial customer count grew 65% in the last year, which is fabulous growth for a company that's long been known as a government contractor. Palantir reports that its U.S. commercial revenue increased 121% year over year to reach $397 million.

"This segment of our operations is an absolute juggernaut," Karp said in a letter to shareholders. "And we believe that it will become, on its own, one of the most significant business stories of the century in American economic life."

It reported closing 204 deals in the third quarter with values of at least $1 million, with 91 of them valued at $5 million-plus and 53 at more than $10 million. Palantir doesn't break down how many of those deals are commercial versus government, but it's clear the commercial side is growing fast. U.S. government work was up 52% from a year ago, accounting for $486 million of Palantir's revenue.

What can we expect from Palantir?
Palantir issued guidance for the fourth quarter, calling for revenue between $1.327 billion and $1.331 billion. At the midpoint, that would represent a 60% increase in revenue from Q4 2024, when it reported revenue of $828 million. It's projecting adjusted income in the range of $695 million and $699 million -- at the midpoint, that would be an 86.6% jump from Q4 2024 adjusted income of $373 million.

The full-year guidance is just as impressive. Revenue between $3.741 billion and $3.757 billion would be up an incredible 97% from a year ago, while adjusted income in the range of $2.151 billion and $2.155 billion would be up 90% from 2024.

This rapid growth -- and the demonstrated success of and demand for Palantir's programs on the commercial side -- are why I'm not as concerned as other analysts about the company's valuation. It includes a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 230 and a forward price-to-sales ratio of 90.

Simply put, Palantir is making moves that nobody has seen before. As companies become increasingly desperate to incorporate AI into their businesses, Palantir's platform offers truly unique and effective solutions.

It has to continue to execute perfectly -- and that's on Karp on his team to deliver. But when they do, Palantir stock will prove to be a steal right now at 20% below its all-time high, and why I expect it to set new highs in 2026.

November has been a tough month for stocks. While AI stocks took the brunt of the correction, relative strength lines were a great way to identify stocks that fought against the pullback to produce winning swing trades.

Rising Relative Strength Line
Sphere Entertainment (SPHR) wasn't one of the leaders in the first part of the rally that began in April, but it wasn't completely out of favor either. After breaking out from a cup base in September, it saw two touches with support at its 21-day moving average line in October (1). The relative strength line was holding up well during the October volatility.

On Nov. 4, while the Nasdaq composite was suffering its first of a few 2% drops, Sphere stock was having a favorable earnings reaction that saw initial weakness turn into an upside reversal (2). The divergence from the market plus the upside reversal setup earned Sphere a spot on the SwingTrader Current Trades list.

Even better: In a time where a lot of upside reversals weren't seeing any follow-through action, Sphere immediately gave us cushion on our position (3).

Locking In Gains On Sphere Stock
The relative strength line continued higher as Sphere bucked the market pullback, but after three down days in a row, we got concerned the profits would evaporate (4). Sphere looked like it could get support at its 21-day line again while the Nasdaq composite and S&P 500 were falling to their 50-day lines. But what good does relative strength do if you are still losing money?

To protect the profit we locked in gains. One of the tough parts of the November market was how weakness would be followed by an upside reversal and then an undercut of the reversal. That happened with Sphere, too.

After we exited the position, Sphere fell further then saw an upside reversal (5). A few days later, the upside reversal was undercut by another upside reversal (6).

This time Sphere and the market seem to be gaining traction and that's led to more aggressive buying on the SwingTrader product this week. At the same time, we've continued using relative strength to identify the best prospects and shift money to where it's treated best.

Key Takeaways BigBear.ai's revenues fell in Q2 and Q3, but the Ask Sage acquisition positions it for a rebound.BBAI targets $125M-$140M in 2025 sales as Ask Sage adds 100,000 users across 16,000 government teams. BigBear.ai ended Q3 with $456.6M in cash and posted $2.5M net income, marking progress toward profitability.
The artificial intelligence (AI) boom has fueled rapid growth for NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA - Free Report) , whose shares increased 33.2% over the past year. However, in the same period, the smaller BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (BBAI - Free Report) capitalized on the rising demand for the AI software solutions market and climbed 181%. Does this imply that BigBear.ai could become the “next NVIDIA” and merit investor attention now? Let’s see –  

2 Reasons to be Bullish on BigBear.ai Stock At the beginning of the year, the federal government’s willingness to boost domestic growth in technology fueled BigBear.ai’s shares to record highs. However, later, President Trump’s substantial cuts to federal spending impacted BigBear.ai’s share price. As a result of the reduced funding, BigBear.ai’s revenues fell 20% year over year to $33.1 million in the third quarter, following an 18% year-over-year decline to $32.5 million in the second quarter.  

But BigBear.ai’s top-line performance is poised to rebound following its definitive deal to acquire Ask Sage for $250 million, which is a rapidly expanding generative AI platform built for secure AI deployment in regulated fields, including defense and national security, citing ir.bigbear.ai. Ask Sage is widely adopted, with agencies ranging from the Defense Health Agency to the US Space Force employing it. Now, Ask Sage supports 100,000 users across 16,000 government teams.  

CEO of BigBear.ai, Kevin McAleenan, said, “by integrating Ask Sage with BigBear.ai, we are creating what the market has been asking for: a secure, integrated AI platform that connects software, data, and mission services in one place.” Banking on the Ask Sage acquisition to accelerate revenue growth, BigBear.ai is sticking to its full-year sales guidance between $125 million and $140 million.  

In addition to an expected improvement in revenues, BigBear.ai also benefits from a strong balance sheet. Its balance sheet strengthened sequentially, culminating in a record $456.6 million in cash as of September 30, 2025, giving the company a strong foundation to ramp up growth. A strong cash position will help BigBear.ai to fund growth initiatives, pursue additional acquisitions, and scale its operations at a faster pace. 

Is BBAI Worth Investing In Now? Could it be the Next NVIDIA? BigBear.ai is set for growth with the Ask Sage acquisition and a strong cash cushion, and McAleenan expects the increased government spending next year, thanks to Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” to further boost the company’s business. Lest we forget, the company did post a net income of $2.5 million for the third quarter, whereas it had posted a net loss of $15.1 million in the same period a year ago, a significant milestone toward profitability. 

Brokers are also optimistic about BigBear.ai’s growth in the future. Consequently, they forecast the average short-term price target for BBAI stock at $6.67, reflecting a 10.8% increase from the last closing price of $6.02. The highest target is $8, suggesting a potential upside of 32.9%. Therefore, investors can confidently bet on BigBear.ai stock. BigBear.ai carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at the moment.

However, to say BigBear.ai is the “next NVIDIA” is premature. This is because BigBear.ai’s loss from operations of $21.9 million in the third quarter more than doubled the $10.5 million loss a year earlier. The increase in operating losses, coupled with declining sales, may slow the company’s growth momentum. NVIDIA, on the other hand, has consistently delivered an increase in revenue and profit, driven by its dominance in AI hardware and a strong competitive edge provided by its CUDA software platform, which is likely to continue fueling its expansion (read more: 3 Reasons to Buy NVIDIA After Its Massive 62% Revenue Surge).

Key Takeaways RGTI advances a modular gate-based system with its new 36-qubit chiplet design and higher fidelities.QBTS focuses on annealing and hybrid solvers aimed at real-world optimization uses available today.QBTS posts rising bookings and revenue, while RGTI leans on contracts and a multi-year cash runway.
Quantum computing continues to attract outsized attention because it sits at the intersection of breakthrough science and massive commercial potential. The technology is still early, but the promise is clear: the ability to tackle optimization, simulation, and security problems that classical systems simply cannot handle. For investors, this space remains a rare chance to get in ahead of what could eventually become an industry measured in trillions.

Within this landscape, Rigetti Computing (RGTI - Free Report) and D-Wave Quantum (QBTS - Free Report) offer two very different approaches to building momentum. Rigetti is pushing ahead with a gate-based superconducting architecture designed for long-run universality and scalability, while D-Wave is focused on quantum annealing and hybrid solvers that can be deployed for specific use cases today. In this face-off, we break down how each company is advancing and what those paths mean for investors trying to balance near-term traction with the long-term race toward more capable quantum machines.

Price Performance of RGTI & QBTSShares of Rigetti have soared 67.5%, while QBTS stock has surged 166.7% in the year-to-date period.

Image Source: Zacks Investment Research

Architecture & Technology StrategyModular Gate-Based vs Annealing Deployment:Rigetti continues leaning into a gate-based, superconducting-qubit architecture, now with a modular “chiplet” design. In August, the company unveiled its 36-qubit “Cepheus-1-36Q” system built from four 9-qubit chiplets, and achieved a median two-qubit gate fidelity of approximately 99.5%. That is roughly half the error rate of its prior 84-qubit single-chip system. The modular design gives Rigetti a clear runway: they aim to push into the 100+ qubit territory by end-2025, which points to a path toward scalability. For investors, what stands out is that the full stack, from in-house chip fabrication to calibration, software and cloud deployment, seems to be maturing into usable hardware rather than just lab prototypes.

On the other hand, QBTS remains focused on quantum annealing / hybrid-solver systems that are more immediately deployable, targeting optimization problems, combinatorial tasks, and enterprise use cases today. This pragmatic strategy gives D-Wave a near-term value proposition in industries that do not need fully universal quantum computers. As a result, QBTS may offer investors exposure to tangible applications sooner, even if it is not chasing the universal-quantum hardware holy grail. This real-world, use-case-centered approach contrasts with Rigetti’s long-term universal-quantum ambition.

Business Model & Go-to-Market StrategyContract-Based vs Platform & Deployment Expansion: Rigetti’s revenue mix remains heavily weighted toward government, research institutions, and early-stage enterprise collaborations. Their business tends to revolve around grants, milestone-based contracts, and R&D engagements, like the contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory worth about $5.8 million for quantum-networking work. That is appealing from a technical validation standpoint, and it gives the company non-dilutive funding. But it also means revenue flows can be unpredictable, fluctuating with contract timing rather than recurring enterprise demand. For investors, that dynamic underscores both the upside of validation and the risk of irregular revenue visibility.

Meanwhile, D-Wave is more aggressively pursuing a model that blends hardware sales, deployments, enterprise and client engagements, and ecosystem or platform expansion. Its third-quarter 2025 results highlighted growth in bookings and revenues, pointing to increasing demand for their quantum systems and hybrid solutions among real-world customers. That suggests QBTS might be inching toward a more diversified, enterprise-oriented revenue base, potentially less dependent on sporadic R&D grants and more on actual deployments or recurring service relationships. As such, for an investor preferring steadier commercial traction over speculative contracts, D-Wave’s model could be more attractive.

Recent Financials & Cash RunwayRGTI’s Stability Buffer vs QBTS’s Momentum Surge: Rigetti’s latest quarterly numbers paint a mixed picture. Revenues came in at about $1.9 million, down from $2.4 million a year earlier, reflecting the ongoing reliance on government contracts and research-driven project timing. Operating expenses remained elevated at roughly $21 million, leading to a sizeable operating loss. The encouraging piece for investors is the company’s liquidity profile as Rigetti continues to maintain a multi-year cash runway, which gives it breathing room to continue investing in its chiplet roadmap and higher-fidelity superconducting hardware. In an industry where long-cycle R&D is the norm, that balance-sheet cushion is meaningful, even if near-term revenue visibility remains uneven.

D-Wave, meanwhile, reported one of its strongest quarterly performances to date. Third-quarter revenue doubled year over year to $3.7 million, and system-related sales, including upgrades at Julich, helped lift third-quarter GAAP gross margin to 71.4% and non-GAAP gross margin to 77.7%. Even more notable for investors, year-to-date GAAP gross margin climbed to 84.8%, up sharply from 62.7% in the prior year, showing real operating leverage. But the standout figure is the balance sheet — cash surged to $836.2 million, compared with just $29.3 million last year, aided further by warrant-exercise proceeds after the quarter. This shift gives QBTS one of the strongest liquidity positions in the quantum industry, enabling deeper commercial expansion and providing a meaningful buffer against the sector’s long development cycles.

Who Is Better Positioned for Quantum Advantage?Rigetti’s roadmap is built around advancing its chiplet-based superconducting architecture. With its 36-qubit modular system now demonstrated, the company is targeting a 100-plus-qubit chiplet system by the end of 2025. The advantage for Rigetti lies in its tight integration across the stack, in-house fabrication, control systems, calibration and cloud deployment, along with the steady improvements in gate fidelity. Still, progressing from today’s NISQ-era devices to fault-tolerant quantum computing remains a formidable challenge, and the company has yet to show broad enterprise adoption beyond research, government and early-stage pilots.

D-Wave takes a very different path, prioritizing quantum annealing and hybrid solvers aimed at solving optimization problems with near-term business relevance. Rather than building toward gate-based universality, QBTS is positioning its technology as a practical tool today, supported by system upgrades, cloud access and real-world deployments. This approach may give D-Wave a clearer short-term commercial success, but annealing systems are not designed to achieve the type of universal quantum advantage expected from future fault-tolerant gate-model machines. The long-term question for investors is whether near-term applicability can offset the limitations of a non-universal architecture as the broader industry matures.

From an investor’s standpoint, the choice depends largely on time horizon and conviction in each technological path. Both companies offer upside in different ways, making the preference ultimately a function of whether one values near-term practicality or long-term universality.

How Do Estimates Compare for RGTI & QBTS?The Zacks Consensus Estimate for RGTI’s 2025 sales implies a year-over-year decline of 23.82%. For 2025, the loss per share is projected to be 68 cents compared with 36 cents a year ago. The earnings estimates have turned negative over the past 30 days, with loss per share expanding from 9 cents to 68 cents.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for QBTS 2025 sales implies year-over-year growth of 188.6%. For 2025, the loss per share is projected to be 23 cents compared with 75 a year ago.

RGTI or QBTS: Which Is a Better Pick?Despite their distinct paths, both stocks currently hold a Zacks Value Score of F, reflecting the premium valuations typical of early-stage, high-potential technology names.

Where the two begin to diverge is in their growth and momentum dynamics. Rigetti carries a Growth Score of C, indicating steadier, more moderate expectations, paired with a Momentum Score of B, reflecting improving sentiment around its technical progress and roadmap. D-Wave, in contrast, holds a Growth Score of F but a stronger Momentum Score of A, suggesting that even with slower underlying growth metrics, investor interest has accelerated meaningfully, likely driven by its recent revenue gains, margin expansion and significant boost in liquidity. Importantly, Rigetti and D-Wave carry a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), implying that the broader market may be waiting for more definitive catalysts before taking a more decisive stance. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

While D-Wave offers near-term commercial activity and stronger momentum, Rigetti’s more balanced growth-to-momentum profile, combined with its clear progress toward larger-scale, gate-based systems, positions it as a steadier pick for investors who want exposure to the longer-term race for universal quantum computing. Ultimately, the preference depends on whether an investor prioritizes near-term traction, as in the case of QBTS or long-horizon scalability, as in the case of RGTI, but at this stage, Rigetti’s mapped progress and improving sentiment give it a slight edge in this matchup.

Management Commentary

“During the third quarter of 2025, we experienced a gradual but meaningful improvement in market rates for the vessel segments in which we operate. The quarter ended at significantly higher levels than it began with, our nimble chartering strategy allowed us to effectively capture the upward momentum. This positive trend continued into the fourth quarter of 2025, with rates for midsize bulk carriers currently ranging around $15,000 and $18,000 per day. Our modern fleet is well positioned to benefit from these conditions through short-term and index-linked chartering arrangements that provide direct exposure to improving market fundamentals. Asset values remain elevated, and sale-and-purchase activity has been strong across the market.

“Operationally, we completed the dry-docking of one vessel during the quarter, which temporarily affected utilization. Although the work experienced a minor delay due to unforeseen circumstances, the final outcome met our expectations and costs remained within acceptable levels.

“Construction of our two Ultramax newbuildings in Japan, scheduled for delivery in 2026, is progressing according to plan. These fuel-efficient vessels will enhance our operational flexibility and are well received by charterers.

“We also secured financing for both newbuildings from Japanese institutions on what we consider attractive terms. In parallel, we amended one of our existing credit facilities, achieving a reduced margin and an extended maturity, with a long-standing financial partner.

“Looking ahead, market conditions remain constructive. We see encouraging signs across several dry bulk trade routes and are optimistic about the outlook for the midsize bulker segment. We look forward to operating our fully delivered fleet, generating sustainable cash flows, and delivering meaningful returns to shareholders.”

Recent Developments

Sale of vessel

On February 4, 2025, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an agreement to sell the 2007-built River Globe for a gross price of $8.55 million before commissions and expenses. The vessel was delivered to her new owners on March 17, 2025.

Debt financing

In September 2025, the Company amended its CIT loan facility with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, extending the termination date of Tranches F and G to August 10, 2027, to align with Tranches H and I. The amendment also revised the repayment schedules for the affected tranches and reduced the applicable margin for all tranches from 2.70% to 1.95%. The Company determined that the changes did not substantially modify CIT Loan Facility’s terms and the Company recognized a gain on modification which amounted to $461 thousand.

The Company, through its subsidiaries, has arranged a $25 million loan facility and a $28 million sale and bareboat back agreement for its two vessels under construction, which are scheduled for delivery in the second half of 2026.

(NYSE: STUB) pursuant and/or traceable to the Registration Statement issued in connection with StubHub's September 2025 initial public offering (the "IPO"). A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 23, 2026.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 23, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the Registration Statement was materially false and misleading and omitted to state that: (1) StubHub was experiencing changes in the timing of payments to vendors; (2) those changes had a significant adverse impact on free cash flow, including trailing twelve months ("TTM") free cash flow; (3) as a result, StubHub's free cash flow reports were materially misleading, and that; (4) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about StubHub's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

Brazilian state-run oil firm Petrobras expects to maintain its oil production at some 2.6 million or 2.7 million barrels per day until 2034 after ramping up around 2027, Chief Executive Officer Magda Chambriard said on Friday.

These stocks can power your returns for years to come.

Holding shares of growing companies is one of the most efficient ways to build wealth over time. The key is to maintain a long-term mindset, ignore short-term volatility in the stock market, and concentrate on investing in companies that possess a competitive edge.

Here are two growth stocks that would make solid investments right now.

1. Reddit
Reddit (RDDT +4.29%) has quickly become one of the top three most visited sites in the U.S., turning the conversation-driven social media platform into a magnet for advertisers. Its momentum also illustrates a significant competitive advantage for Reddit, as people seek authentic, human-created content in an increasingly artificial intelligence (AI)-driven world.

Reddit has become a popular platform for discussing a wide range of topics. The company has released numerous enhancements, including AI features, to make it easier to discover new content and help publishers and advertisers gain more visibility in front of a large user base. Reddit saw its daily active users surge 19% year over year in the third quarter, reaching 116 million.

The stock sold off earlier this year as investors wondered whether AI models like ChatGPT would divert users and pressure Reddit's growth. But it's looking more like the opposite. Reddit appears to be benefiting from AI features, such as AI-powered language translation, which is fueling its international growth. Higher user engagement is driving growth in ad spending, resulting in a 68% year-over-year increase in Reddit's revenue to $585 million last quarter.

Perhaps the best reason to consider investing in Reddit is that it is proving it can scale the business profitably. Reddit reported a net profit of $163 million last quarter. On a trailing-12-month basis, Reddit generated $509 million in free cash flow, representing a 387% year-over-year increase.

Analysts project that free cash flow will grow at a 62% annualized rate to reach $2.4 billion by 2029. At a minimum, this growth should double the share price in the next five years.

2. MercadoLibre
MercadoLibre (MELI +1.78%) is the leading e-commerce company in Latin America, with a long runway of growth ahead of it. It had over 110 million unique buyers on its e-commerce marketplace last year, generating $56 billion in quarterly gross merchandise volume. Its leading e-commerce platform and fintech business has a significant opportunity to serve a large underbanked population across Latin America.

MercadoLibre's e-commerce marketplace feeds off the growth of its fintech services. For example, the payment methods it offers through the Mercado Pago fintech business accounts for approximately a quarter of the transactions in its marketplace.

The company leverages its extensive customer data to evaluate credit risk, driving significant growth in new products, such as credit cards. In Brazil, it issued 1.3 million new cards to customers last quarter, indicating rapid adoption. Its credit portfolio grew 83% year over year to $11 billion last quarter.

MercadoLibre has multiple avenues for business growth. Revenue increased 39% year over year in the last quarter. This marked the 30th consecutive quarter of 30% or more growth. It is rare to find businesses that have been operating for over two decades and have maintained this level of growth.

The stock's valuation looks attractive. The shares are trading at a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 3.8. This is toward the low end of its 10-year range, where it traded between a P/S multiple of 3.6 and 25.9. With analysts expecting revenue to grow at an annualized rate of 24% through 2029, investors can expect the stock to at least double in value in the next five years.

Key Takeaways NLY reached a 52-week high of $22.80 during Wednesday's session before closing at $22.67.Lower mortgage rates and a scaled MSR platform are helping support NLY's portfolio stability.NLY trades above industry P/B levels, while market volatility may weigh on near-term performance.
Annaly Capital Management, Inc. (NLY - Free Report) shares touched a new 52-week high of $22.80 during Wednesday's trading session. However, the stock closed the session a little lower at $22.67.

Over the past three months, NLY shares have gained 7% outperforming the industry’s growth of 0.2%. Further, it fared better than its close peers, Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (IVR - Free Report) and Two Harbors Investment Corp. (TWO - Free Report) .

Price Performance

Factors Fueling NLY MomentumEasing Mortgage Rates: The Federal Reserve has reduced policy rates twice in 2025 and has remained cautious about delivering a potential third cut by year-end. Given this, mortgage rates are easing. Per a Freddie Mac report, the average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was 6.23% as of Nov. 26, 2025, down from 6.26% in the previous week and 6.81% in the same week a year ago.

Given the decline in mortgage rates, purchase originations are likely to improve in the upcoming period. Refinance volumes are also expected to rise due to the gradual fall in borrowing costs.

This will likely to boost net interest spread, improving the portfolio’s overall yield, supporting the financials of NLY in the upcoming period.

Prudent Investment Strategy: The company follows a disciplined investment strategy, focusing on careful asset selection and effective capital allocation to achieve stable and consistent returns. It primarily invests in traditional Agency mortgage-backed securities (MBSs), which offer downside protection, while also targeting non-agency and credit-focused asset classes to enhance overall returns. Its scaled mortgage servicing rights (MSR) platform benefits from a low prepayment environment, and the company continues to strengthen this platform through strategic partnerships. In October 2025, Annaly entered a long-term subservicing and MSR purchase agreement with PennyMac Financial Services, leveraging PennyMac’s robust servicing infrastructure and recapture capabilities to expand scale and improve operational efficiencies. As of Sept. 30, 2025, Annaly’s total investment portfolio stood at $97.8 billion, reflecting a balanced and diversified approach designed to support long-term growth.

Agency MBS Exposure Provides Downside Protection: Annaly benefits from a significant allocation to Agency MBS, backed by government-sponsored enterprises, which ensures principal and interest payments and makes these investments relatively safer. Management remains optimistic about the 2025 outlook, noting that Agency MBS currently offers attractive relative returns compared with funding costs. As of Sept. 30, 2025, $87.3 billion of Annaly’s portfolio consisted of highly liquid Agency MBS, most of which carry an actual or implied ‘AAA’ rating, supporting attractive risk-adjusted returns in the fixed-income markets and reinforcing the company’s defensive positioning.

Decent Liquidity Position: Annaly continues to prioritise liquidity and prudent leverage management to navigate market volatility effectively. As of Sept. 30, 2025, the company held $8.8 billion in total assets available for financing, including $5.9 billion in cash and unencumbered Agency MBS, providing ample liquidity during adverse market conditions. This decent liquid position equips Annaly to sustain its operations and capitalize on opportunities, even amid periods of economic stress and financial-market uncertainty, reinforcing its overall financial resilience.

Sustainable Capital Distribution: Annaly has demonstrated a continued focus on shareholder returns through disciplined capital management. On Jan. 31, 2025, the company’s board approved a new common share repurchase program, authorizing up to $1.5 billion in buybacks through Dec. 31, 2029. While no shares have been repurchased under this plan yet, the program provides significant flexibility.

Apart from the share repurchase program, the company pays regular dividends. In March 2025, NLY raised its cash dividend by 7.7% to 70 cents per share. Over the past five years, the company has raised its dividend once. Its current dividend yield stands at 12.3%, slightly above the industry average of 12.1%, while Invesco Mortgage and Two Harbors Investment offer yields of 16.7% and 13.3%, respectively.

What’s Hurting NLY’s GrowthMarket Volatility: NLY’s operating performance is closely tied to broader financial markets and macroeconomic conditions. Volatility in mortgage markets, interest-rate swings, and adverse shifts in the yield curve may affect its investments. Despite the Federal Reserve reducing policy rates, elevated mortgage rates continue to pressure fixed-income assets and widen spreads. As a result, near-term benefits may be muted, and the company’s performance could remain constrained under persistent market and macroeconomic uncertainties.

Portfolio Adjustments Amid Market Volatility: The company actively adjusts its investment portfolio to navigate evolving financial conditions. With a hedge ratio of 92% as of the third quarter of 2025, the company prioritizes risk and liquidity management. Consequently, in the short term, strong returns may remain limited, and book value could be affected, reflecting a cautious approach to current market volatility.

NLY's Estimates and Valuation AnalysisAnalysts maintain a neutral stance on the company’s earnings growth potential. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings for 2025 and 2026 has remained unchanged. The projected figure implies a growth of 7.4% for 2025 and 1.5% for 2026.

Estimates Revision Trend

From a valuation perspective, NLY appears expensive. The company’s 12-month trailing price to book (P/B) ratio of 1.17X is above the industry’s 0.97X. Meanwhile, Invesco Mortgage has a trailing P/B ratio of 0.90X while Two Harbors Investment is trading at 0.91X.

Price-to-Book TTM

Parting Thoughts on NLY StockAnnaly’s new 52-week high reflects improving sentiment around mortgage rates, stronger portfolio stability, and ongoing strategic enhancements in its MSR platform and Agency MBS allocation. The company’s disciplined investment posture, ample liquidity, and commitment to shareholder returns add to its appeal, especially for income-focused investors.

However, valuation remains stretched relative to the industry, and heightened market volatility could restrain near-term performance. With earnings estimates holding steady and macro uncertainty still in play, NLY may offer attractive long-term defensiveness but limited short-term upside. As such, investors should weigh the company’s solid fundamentals against broader interest-rate risks before making new allocations at current levels.

NLY currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
