Qualys is trading 11.4% up at $167.35, with the September 14 rebound appearing primarily sector-driven as software stocks rally and investors rotate away from AI hardware.

  • The stock is recovering from the September 11 selloff.
  • Friday’s decline followed Wedbush’s downgrade from Outperform to Neutral, despite its price-target increase to $175 from $125.
  • No new company-specific announcement clearly explains today’s move.
