Quantum computing stocks surge in lockstep: IonQ +12.8%, D-Wave +12.3%, Rigetti +6.9% all on 3–5x volume

Three quantum computing stocks rallied simultaneously on April 15 with volume well above baseline across all three names, pointing to coordinated sector-level capital rotation rather than stock-specific catalysts. All three remain deeply below their 52-week highs — IONQ is 49% below its peak of $84.64 and QBTS is 55% below its peak of $46.75 — suggesting the sector is recovering from a prolonged trough.
