CORVALLIS, Ore. & PHOENIX & KINCARDINE, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NuScale is deploying nuclear-specific AI in partnership with Nuclearn and NPX to speed development of its groundbreaking SMR technology.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk believes the company's energy needs will skyrocket. Another AI CEO is betting big on nuclear energy as an antidote to the industry's power challenges.
AI companies need more power quickly. NuScale Power's biggest growth catalyst could hit this year.
NuScale Power receives a speculative Buy rating at $9.44, with a five-year horizon focused on commercialization milestones. TVA remains the key growth catalyst; a definitive PPA could transform SMR's revenue trajectory and validate its unique regulatory and supply chain position. Despite a strong $1.9B cash balance, dilution and milestone payments tied to ENTRA1 agreements temper the near-term investment case.
Bullish option flow detected in Nuscale Power Corp with 36,675 calls trading, 2.0x expected, and implied vol increasing over 4 points to 81.04%. Aug-26 9.5 calls and 8/28 weekly 10 calls are the most active options, with total volume in those strikes near 10,000 contracts. The Put/Call Ratio is 0.36. Earnings are expected on November 5th.
Investors who remain bullish on nuclear power may want to keep their SMR, OKLO, LEU or URA positions moderate rather than assuming today's selloff marks a durable bottom.
Modern data centers powered by advanced Nvidia chips require significantly more power compared to traditional setups. Technology companies have signed some major long-term power purchase agreements with independent power producers.
XE strengthens its fuel and supply-chain capabilities with HALEU and graphite agreements as it advances the Xe-100 toward commercialization.
Nuclear names sold off hard into Tuesday's close. Oklo (NYSE:OKLO | OKLO Price Prediction) finished down roughly 6% at $41, Constellation Energy (NASDAQ:CEG) fell about 4% to $267, and NuScale Power (NYSE:SMR) slid roughly 6% to $9.
NuScale Power (NYSE:SMR) stock is down 6% Tuesday to $8.66 as the small modular reactor developer digests a Q2 2026 revenue collapse and a fresh $750 million equity offering.
Bank of America Corp DE increased its holdings in shares of NuScale Power Corporation (NYSE: SMR) by 33.4% in the first quarter, according to its most recent disclosure with the SEC.

NuScale's revenue plummeted in its latest quarter as its FEED studies ended. But the bigger problem is its dependence on stock offerings to raise cash.
NuScale Power aims to decarbonize industrial heat with modular reactors supplying high-temperature steam for chemicals, fuels and other industries.
While there is no shortage of demand from the nuclear renaissance, the rate of deploying new reactors will be determined by the capacity of the supply chain. Expanding capacity for supply chain bottlenecks, such as pump manufacturing and uranium enrichment, is not addressed overnight.
Nuclear is booming, and the smartest money may be flowing to the companies already selling the power, equipment, and fuel.
TVA could transform NuScale's commercial future. A 6- to 8-gigawatt project would be historically significant.
NuScale traded as high as $57.42 last October; the stock is near $9.50 as of this writing. Second-quarter revenue was $75,000, down from $8.1 million a year earlier.
