After a meteoric 1,000% rise in just 12 months, D-Wave Quantum shares continue to attract attention. Analysts are significantly raising their price targets - is the next short squeeze already looming? Meanwhile, bargain hunters should take a closer look at MiMedia. The Walmart partner's shares have halved since July, yet the Company is making strong progress in expanding its cloud platform. A rebound of up to 100% back to its previous high is possible. And in Europe, Zalando is back on investors' radar. Analysts see up to 70% upside potential, while the chart is also looking more favorable again. However, the weak consumer climate continues to weigh on business sentiment.

    MiMedia: Bargain hunters take note!

    The recent upswing in technology stocks has completely bypassed the cloud service provider MiMedia's stock. While the growth company was still trading at EUR 0.64 in July, it is currently only EUR 0.32, presenting an exciting entry opportunity.

    The Company has already laid the foundation for significant revenue growth in the coming year. Those who position themselves now can benefit from this. MiMedia is a provider of cloud-based storage solutions for personal media data such as photos, videos, music, documents, and text messages. Through apps and desktop clients, the platform enables a cross-platform user experience with a focus on private and secure data backup.

    MiMedia is active in the US and in emerging markets in Central and South America, Africa and Asia. In Mexico, MiMedia is a cooperation partner of Walmart Latin America. Under the agreement, the MiMedia app will be integrated into over 18 million smartphones of the "Bait" mobile phone brand – both on new devices and via OTA updates on existing Android phones. MiMedia also convinced Chinese manufacturer Coolpad to pre-install its app in the first half of the year.

    The Company recently announced that it will now also offer its cloud platform in Arabic. The aim is to target Arabic-speaking countries in the Middle East and North Africa. Device deliveries with OEM partners are already planned for the coming months.

    MiMedia CEO Chris Giordano commented: "With this new language, our global language offering now includes Arabic, English, Spanish, French, German, traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Hindi, among others. We believe that global demand for consumer cloud services will continue to grow strongly for many years to come, particularly due to the rapid expansion of AI."

    With these prospects, MiMedia's share price should also rebound.

    Zalando: Analysts optimistic

    Zalando shareholders have not been shouting with joy for some time now – at least not because of their stock's performance. But the tide could be turning. The German e-commerce leader's stock has now broken out of the downward trend that had been in place since February 2025 and is trading at around EUR 26. Compared to the EUR 40 level in February and the performance of the DAX, this is, of course, still no reason to rejoice. However, analysts have recently expressed optimism and believe new annual highs are possible.

    Berenberg recommends buying Zalando shares. The acquisition of competitor ABOUT YOU is expected to have a positive impact on business development. Analysts see the fair value of the share at EUR 44. This corresponds to a price potential of around 70%. Goldman Sachs is similarly optimistic. Following a meeting with management, they confirmed their "Buy" recommendation. Accordingly, the management board has reaffirmed its goal of increasing the EBIT margin to between 6% and 8% by 2028. The differentiated market positions of Zalando and ABOUT YOU were presented in a plausible manner.

    D-Wave: 1,000% not enough?

    D-Wave Quantum shareholders can smile wearily at a price potential of 70%. Those who bought in November 2024 can look forward to a return of over 1,000%. Even in the past 6 months, performance has been an impressive 200%.

    With a market capitalization of USD 8.6 billion, conventional valuation methods are no longer applicable. In the first half of 2025, D-Wave generated revenue of USD 18.1 million and a net loss of USD 172.8 million. The stock is buoyed by the theory that quantum computing will revolutionize the world. In addition, there are repeated short squeezes, leading to sharp price jumps. Most recently, short sellers were caught off guard two weeks ago, and D-Wave's stock shot up from USD 14 to USD 23 within five trading days.

    And analysts see even more upside potential. Experts at B. Riley recently raised their price target for D-Wave Quantum shares from USD 22 to USD 33. Following the Quantum World Congress, analysts expect the industry to commercialize more quickly than previously assumed. They therefore recommend buying D-Wave shares.


    The share price decline at MiMedia does not reflect the Company's progress. In terms of market penetration, the cloud service provider is making progress and has strong partners. This should also benefit the stock again. D-Wave is currently the investor favorite in the quantum sector. If the hype continues, the stock should continue to perform well. Analysts are more optimistic about Zalando again. However, given the current consumer climate in Germany, a purchase does not appear particularly compelling.

    Dubai is increasingly establishing itself as a global hub for financial innovation. The city combines growth-oriented policies with open regulatory conditions, allowing foreigners to purchase real estate, for example. At the same time, Dubai is promoting blockchain and the tokenization of assets. In 2021, the Dubai Land Authority launched a pilot project for blockchain-based real estate tokenization to enable fractional ownership and give international investors access to this asset class. In this article, we explain the business models surrounding Dubai, tokens, and the future of investing, and why a company from Hamburg is causing a stir.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently revolutionizing drug development by analyzing enormous amounts of data in a very short time and making clinical trials much more targeted. Modern AI systems make it possible to select drug candidates with precision and predict the potential success of a therapy with a high degree of accuracy. Companies like NetraMark are already using these technologies profitably. Players such as D-Wave and Palantir are also among the pioneers of the new AI-driven economy and have seen their share prices rise by over 1,000%. Expectations for further growth are virtually limitless. The advent of quantum computer technology also marks the beginning of a new chapter in ultra-fast data processing. For forward-looking investors, this opens up attractive entry opportunities in dynamically expanding future markets. Those who bet on the right players early on can benefit from this change to an above-average extent.

    Gold boom boosts critical metals! Another 100% with Power Metallic, BYD, Hensoldt and RENK

    The geopolitical situation continues to escalate, but the stock markets continue to boom! Trade conflicts, sanctions, and military tensions dominate the headlines, but behind the front lines of a new Cold War, another competition has long been raging: the battle for access to critical metals. Without copper, lithium, nickel, cobalt, or rare earths, not only would the e-mobility revolution come to a standstill, but defense technologies, digitalization, and the energy transition would also grind to a halt. Supply chains are coming under increasing pressure from geopolitical power games, and the battle for resources is becoming a key strategic factor in a multipolar world order. For Western industrialized nations, security of supply is becoming a matter of survival, and for investors, this is creating new opportunities. Anyone looking for tomorrow's winners today should keep a close eye on the global raw materials poker game.
