Today’s Top-Performing Midday Stocks: SUNE, QBTS, RGTI, QMCO, AAOI, and AKBA

DENVER, Colo., Mar 14, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- As markets hum along today, a diverse pack of stocks is stealing the spotlight. Here’s a rundown of today’s top performers—some riding fresh news waves, others buoyed by broader momentum.

SUNation Energy (NASDAQ:SUNE) is sizzling today, with its stock climbing on news. SUNE fully repaid $9.4 million in senior and junior secured debt, slashing $3.4 million in annual interest costs. Funded by a $15 million equity financing tranche, closed February 27, this move deleverages its balance sheet, unshackles cash flow, and primes SUNE for regional solar acquisitions.

D-Wave Quantum (NYSE:QBTS) is quantum leaping, with shares soaring from ongoing hype around its quantum computing hardware.

Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ:RGTI) is another quantum contender that’s riding today’s wave. 

 

Quantum (NASDAQ:QMCO) is ticking up 1% to $0.80, a whisper of life after a rocky year (down 60%). No fresh updates today or yesterday—its data storage niche keeps it in the mix, but it’s hardly a headline-grabber.

Applied Optoelectronics (NASDAQ:AAOI) is riding a fiber-optic wave and its role in AI-driven data centers keeps it relevant.

Akebia Therapeutics (NASDAQ:AKBA) is nudging up 3% to $1.70, buoyed by kidney disease drug hopes. No updates today or yesterday—its 40% year-to-date gain reflects steady biotech interest.
