<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Nuclear stocks are trading lower across the board on Monday after regulators rejected Talen Energy Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLN#NASDAQ">TLN</a>) plans to increase power for an Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41704326/talen-energy-statement-on-ferc-order-rejecting-susquehanna-isa">data center</a>. 
What Happened: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on Friday rejected Talen Energy&#8217;s request to increase how much power its Susquehanna nuclear plant in Pennsylvania can provide to Amazon Web Services.
According to a CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/04/tech-partnerships-with-power-companies-for-ai-in-doubt-after-ferc-order.html">report</a>, Talen Energy sold a data center campus to Amazon in March for $650 million. The company had filed a request to increase the power dispatched to the facility from 300 megawatts to 480 megawatts, but FERC shot it down, saying the arrangement could have &#8220;huge ramifications&#8221; on grid reliability and consumer costs. 
Talen issued a statement in response to the order rejecting its amended plans, saying it believes FERC &#8220;erred&#8221; in its decision. The company noted that it&#8217;s evaluating its options with a focus on commercial solutions. 
&#8220;We believe this ISA amendment is just and reasonable and in the best interest of consumers. FERC&#8217;s decision will have a chilling effect on economic development in states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New Jersey,&#8221; the company said in the statement.
Talen noted that the existing agreement allows for 300 MW of co-located load at Susquehanna. Despite the rejected amendment, Talen said it can still proceed with development of the first phases of the Amazon Web Services data center campus using the 300 MW while it continues to pursue approval of an amended agreement.

Several nuclear stocks are falling Monday after rallying over the past month. Constellation Energy Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>) and Vistra Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>) were down 10.5% and 2.2%, respectively, in sympathy with Talen.
Oklo Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>), which is chaired by OpenAI&#8217;s Sam Altman, has been one of the most popular nuclear plays in recent weeks. It was down 6.65% at $20.22 at the time of writing. 
Other small modular reactor (SMR) companies like NuScale Power Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>) and Nano Nuclear Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>), were also trading lower, down 2.5% and 10.2%, respectively. 
Nuclear fuel names have also seen increased attention in recent weeks. Shares of uranium fuel producer Cameco Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCJ#NYSE">CCJ</a>) were down more than 2% at the time of writing. Shares of Lightbridge Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LTBR#NASDAQ">LTBR</a>), a nuclear fuel technology company, were down 1.93% at last check. 
Shares of ASP Isotopes Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASPI#NASDAQ">ASPI</a>), which signed a deal with Bill Gates-backed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41624818/asp-isotopes-stock-is-soaring-wednesday-whats-going-on">TerraPower</a> last week and has seen increased attention across social platforms in recent weeks, were down about 14% at the time of writing. 
The VanEck Uranium And Nuclear ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLR#NYSE">NLR</a>) was down 3.22% and the Global X Uranium ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URA#NYSE">URA</a>) was down 2.37% in afternoon trading Monday.
Despite Monday&#8217;s pullback, nuclear stocks are still up significantly over the past month driven by an increased focus on nuclear from hyperscalers aiming to keep up with the rising energy demands of data centers related to the AI boom.

Why VF Corp Shares Are Trading Higher By Around 21%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

Lightbridge Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LTBR#NASDAQ">LTBR</a>) shares are trading higher on Monday amid continued optimism surrounding nuclear-related companies. The increased attention comes after Google and Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced significant investments in nuclear to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41555548/nuclear-stocks-are-on-the-rise-whats-driving-the-surge"> power data centers. </a>
The Details: AWS announced three agreements last week to support nuclear energy projects, including the development of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). One agreement is with Energy Northwest in Washington, with an initial target of 320 MW capacity and possible expansion to 960 MW. Another agreement is with Dominion Energy in Virginia to assess SMR deployment near the North Anna nuclear station, aiming to produce at least 300 MW for the area.
Amazon has also invested in X-energy to support SMR production, aiming to create up to five gigawatts of nuclear power capacity. AWS CEO Matt Garman noted that nuclear energy helps support Amazon&#8217;s goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions.
Google also recently announced that it signed an agreement to buy power from SMRs developed by Kairos Power. The first reactor is scheduled to begin operation in 2030, with more expected by 2035.
Lightbridge has been moving higher in sympathy with several other <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/10/41561203/these-nuclear-energy-stocks-are-exploding-because-big-tech-believes-they-can-meet-ais-power-demands">nuclear-linked stocks</a> in recent sessions. The company is focused on developing advanced nuclear fuel technology.
The stock may be getting an extra boost on Monday after Lightbridge <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/g41571132/independent-modeling-studies-from-mit-and-sia-and-results-from-previous-testing-presented-at-topfu">announced</a> that it presented research findings at the TopFuel 2024 Conference. The company said MIT and Structural Integrity Associates (SIA) studies highlighted safety advantages of Lightbridge's metallic nuclear fuel, such as enhanced heat transfer and reduced risk during accident scenarios compared to conventional uranium dioxide fuel.
These findings support Lightbridge's ongoing efforts to test and validate its fuel at the Idaho National Laboratory, with potential regulatory steps ahead for commercial deployment.
&#8220;Our study of Lightbridge Fuel in pressurized water reactors under both normal and accident conditions confirmed significant safety enhancements over traditional uranium dioxide fuel,&#8221; said Wenfeng Liu, the principal investigator of the SIA study.
&#8220;The fuel&#8217;s lower operating temperatures and reduced cladding oxidation, particularly under loss-of-coolant conditions, underscore the potential of Lightbridge Fuel to improve reactor safety and operational reliability.&#8221;

Lightbridge Stock Is Rallying Monday: What's Going On?

UUUU

Shares of nuclear-linked stocks are trading higher possibly amid continued strength. There has been optimism in the broader sector after Amazon Web Services and Google recently announced nuclear investments to fuel data centers.

Several nuclear-linked stocks such as Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>), Lightbridge Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LTBR#NASDAQ">LTBR</a>) and Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>), are trading higher on continued momentum following recent investments by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google into nuclear energy as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41358363/nuclear-stocks-soar-as-amazon-becomes-latest-tech-giant-to-invest-in-nuclear-power">power source for data centers.</a>
Last week, AWS announced three agreements to advance nuclear energy projects, including the development of Small Modular Reactors. This includes a partnership with Energy Northwest in Washington, targeting an initial 320 MW of capacity, with potential expansion to 960 MW. AWS also partnered with Dominion Energy in Virginia to explore SMR deployment near the North Anna nuclear station, aiming to generate at least 300 MW of power in the region.
In addition, Amazon has invested in X-energy to support SMR manufacturing, potentially generating five gigawatts of nuclear capacity. Matt Garman, CEO of AWS, stated that nuclear energy aligns with Amazon's Climate Pledge to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2040. 
Alongside these deals, Google also signed an agreement to purchase power from a series of SMRs developed by Kairos Power. The first reactor is expected to be operational by 2030, with additional reactors planned by 2035.
Why It Matters: The recent investments by both Amazon and Google underscore a growing trend among tech companies seeking carbon-free energy sources to manage the rising power needs of data centers driven by AI. The announcements have contributed to increased investor optimism across the nuclear energy sector.
Price Action: Oklo shares saw an increase of 6.81%, trading at $19.29. Lightbridge shares rose by 26.1%, reaching $7.48, while Nano Nuclear Energy shares gained 4.79%, trading at $19.27.
