Deutsche Bank has reinstated coverage of IQE Plc (LON:IQE) with a Buy rating and a price target of GBP0.60 per share, following the completion of the company's Strategic Review. This comes as IQE's stock has seen remarkable growth, surging 980% year-to-date and 953% over the past six months, despite its weak financial health score.
