Market Overview
Wall Street served up a week of drama, with markets oscillating between optimism and worry. Tuesday got off to a robust start as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45627060/wall-street-rockets-as-bond-yields-drop-tesla-hits-3-month-highs-whats-driving-markets-tuesday">declining bond yields underpinned a broad advance</a>, lifting the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq while Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) jumped to a three-month high.
But by Wednesday, the momentum was lost as investors became nervous in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45651401/wall-street-stalls-as-treasury-yields-climb-again-ahead-of-nvidia-earnings-fed-minutes-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">anticipation of Nvidia&#8217;s earnings</a> and the release of Fed minutes, as Treasury yields slowly advanced, spoiling the mood.
On Thursday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45677482/stocks-edge-higher-nvidia-rallies-to-3-month-highs-bitcoin-dips-below-107000-whats-driving-markets-thursday">Nvidia dazzled the tech industry with solid earnings</a>, pushing its stock to a three-month high and propelling the broader market, aided in part by a court decision that temporarily blocked a number of Trump&#8217;s tariffs on Chinese imports.
Just when all seemed rosy, Friday rolled in the clouds: Donald Trump blew back into <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45701116/wall-street-slumps-as-trump-reignites-china-trade-tensions-nvidia-wipes-out-earnings-rally-whats-driving-markets-friday">U.S.-China trade tensions by accusing Beijing of violating a tariff truce</a>, which spooked investors and erased much of Nvidia&#8217;s rally. Bitcoin, meanwhile, fell below $107,000, adding a pinch of crypto angst to the mix. All in all, the week was a volatile cocktail of earnings elation, bond market jitters, and geopolitical déjà vu.

ETFs This Week: Markets Whipsaw On Nvidia, Fed, And China—5 Funds That Outperformed

A group of stocks tied to uranium mining and nuclear energy surged to levels not seen since mid-2008, capping off an extraordinary rally in May that is repositioning nuclear power at the center of both the global energy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/uranium">transition and investor portfolios.</a>
The VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLR#NYSE">NLR</a>) rose to $100 per share on Tuesday, May 28, 2025, reclaiming territory last reached in July 2008. 
The fund has now posted eight consecutive weeks of gains, climbing 56% from April lows and 28% in May alone — on pace to mark its strongest month since inception in 2007.
The rally gained fresh momentum in the wake of President Donald Trump's executive order last week, which laid out a strategy to rebuild America's nuclear fuel cycle, reduce dependence on foreign uranium and supercharge reactor development over the next decade.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Who's Leading The Nuclear Rally?</h1>
Three companies have emerged as standout winners in May's uranium breakout:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>) is up 130.7% since late April. The firm develops compact advanced fission reactors aimed at off-grid and remote installations, positioning itself as a leader in next-gen nuclear tech. Last week, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/mid-cap/25/05/45618496/oklo-inks-deal-with-south-korean-nuclear-giant-for-global-push">company signed a key partnership</a> with South Korean Nuclear Giant&nbsp;Korea Hydro &amp; Nuclear Power.</li>
<li>NuScale Power Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>) has gained 114.7%. It specializes in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), a scalable and cost-efficient technology now getting federal backing.</li>
<li>Centrus Energy Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEU#NYSE">LEU</a>) has risen 91.4%. The company supplies enriched uranium fuel for commercial and government use, and stands to benefit from expanded enrichment capabilities outlined in Trump's order.</li>
</ul>
Other notable gainers in the past month include Boss Energy Limited (OTCPK: BQSSF), up 50%; NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>), up 42.1% and Canadian uranium mining heavyweight Cameco Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCJ#NYSE">CCJ</a>), which is up 37.8%.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What's Fueling The Nuclear Rally?</h1>
Much of the momentum stems from the May 23 executive order signed by President Trump, which outlines an aggressive roadmap for U.S. nuclear revitalization. 
Among the core initiatives:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>10 new nuclear reactors under construction by 2030</li>
<li>5 gigawatts of uprated capacity from existing facilities</li>
<li>Expansion of uranium enrichment, conversion and recycling</li>
<li>Reinvigoration of the domestic nuclear fuel supply chain</li>
</ul>
In a research note last week, Goldman Sachs analyst Brian Lee said the policy shift provides "a meaningful tailwind for companies in the nuclear fuel supply chain."
Lee reiterated a Buy rating on Cameco, citing its exposure to rising uranium demand and its 49% stake in Westinghouse, a key player in new reactor builds.
"We view the Westinghouse segment would likely see an uplift as construction on new nuclear plants begins," he said.
He also flagged NuScale as a beneficiary of federal investment, given the administration's support for SMRs in both civilian and defense applications.
Goldman Sachs forecasts global nuclear capacity will grow from 378GW to 575GW by 2040, boosting its share of the global electricity mix to 12%. 
The need for reliable, emissions-free baseload power — especially to support the electrification of vehicles, AI-driven data centers and grid stability — is now reviving nuclear's appeal.

Oklo Inks Deal With South Korean Nuclear Giant For Global Push

Uranium- and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">nuclear-themed ETFs</a> spiked sharply Friday after news emerged that the domestic nuclear industry is set to be overhauled with executive orders from President Donald Trump.
Policy-driven optimism sent nuclear-themed ETFs—spanning reactor developers to uranium miners—soaring on a wave of investor interest. With Trump signaling long-term support, this momentum may have staying power.
Global X Uranium ETF Leads The Charge
The Global X Uranium ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URA#NYSE">URA</a>), a key benchmark for uranium stocks, jumped 11% Friday, driven by gains in top uranium miners and component makers. URA led all thematic ETFs for the day.
The North Shore Global Uranium Mining ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URNM#NYSE">URNM</a>) and VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLR#NYSE">NLR</a>) also surged around 9%, as broad momentum lifted nuclear stocks. These funds continue to attract investors seeking diversified, liquid exposure to a sector highly sensitive to policy and geopolitical shifts.

What&#8217;s Driving The Rally
A growing narrative is fueling the rally: nuclear power may gain new policy support. Reuters reports Trump plans to invoke the Defense Production Act to declare a national emergency over U.S. dependence on foreign uranium and fast-track approvals for domestic reactors and infrastructure.
This comes as U.S. electricity demand rises for the first time in 20 years, driven by energy-hungry AI and data centers. With solar and wind constrained by storage and reliability issues, nuclear is gaining traction as a stable alternative.
ETFs Provide Focused Exposure Amid Volatility
While spot uranium miners like Uranium Energy Corp. (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UEC#AMEX">UEC</a>), Energy Fuels Inc. (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUUU#AMEX">UUUU</a>), and Snow Lake Resources (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITM#NASDAQ">LITM</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/mid-cap/25/05/45587750/uranium-stocks-surge-trumps-nuclear-push-sparks-double-digit-gains">experienced double-digit increases</a>, up 23.7%, 16.0%, and 13.2% respectively, ETF investors enjoyed diversified exposure that lessens single-stock risk. URA, for example, has more than 40 holdings across mining, utility, and nuclear technology names.
In addition to miners, ETFs also picked up on the upside in more advanced nuclear companies such as Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>) and Nano Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>), which surged more than 27% each in response to news of Trump&#8217;s policy initiatives. Utility stocks such as 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>) also added to ETF returns.
Investor Implications 
For investors seeking exposure without the volatility of individual stocks, nuclear-themed ETFs offer an attractive alternative. Fund flows could accelerate if executive orders signal a lasting policy shift toward nuclear energy.
These ETFs also benefit from rising institutional demand for clean, reliable power, especially as AI-driven energy needs grow. Analysts note that a sustained rally in uranium prices, driven by supply constraints, could lift uranium-heavy ETFs as well.
Conclusion
Trump's nuclear energy push has reignited interest in a long-overlooked sector. As the political landscape shifts, ETF investors are positioning for a potential long-term energy pivot. Uranium and nuclear ETFs now reflect the intersection of policy, innovation, and surging tech-driven power demand.

Trump Sparks Uranium Frenzy: Nuclear ETFs See Explosive Gains

After grappling with regulatory hurdles, rising capital costs, and rapidly declining costs of renewables like solar, Cathie Wood&#8216;s Ark Invest highlights in its new research that nuclear energy can potentially emerge as the lowest-cost source of electricity, outcompeting solar.
What Happened: A new research note from Sam Korus, the director of research for autonomous technology and robotics at Ark, published on May 14, highlights that nuclear power&#8217;s promise of reliable baseload energy was overshadowed by soaring expenses, particularly after the 1970s.
While solar costs have plummeted, Ark Invest&#8217;s analysis highlights a crucial, often overlooked factor: utilization rates.
&#8220;A quick glance suggests nuclear wouldn&#8217;t be as low as solar on a cost-per-watt basis,&#8221; the research note explains, &#8220;but importantly, the first glance misses a key point: nuclear plants operate at more than 80% utilization, while solar plants operate at a capacity utilization rate in the low 20s%.&#8221;
When adjusted for this, the playing field dramatically shifts, explains Korus in his research.
The research proposes four potential cost scenarios for nuclear, with the most optimistic envisioning a &#8220;step-change cost decline to pre-1975 nuclear cost trendline.&#8221;
This discontinuous drop, driven by new companies like Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>), could lead to overall capital costs of approximately $3.3 trillion, making nuclear power the lowest-cost option.
Korus adds, &#8220;The future of nuclear energy depends upon costs. If a company were to achieve a discontinuous decline in costs, nuclear power could emerge as the lowest-cost source of electricity.&#8221;
Here&#8217;s a list of some solar energy-linked stocks and exchange-traded funds that investors could consider.

Why It Matters: Talking about solar energy, Korus said that while solar costs are expected to continue their decline, there are significant logistical challenges.
&#8220;Solar's land requirement at 71.4 million acres would be a considerable logistical challenge,&#8221; the note states.
This vast footprint, coupled with complex real estate negotiations and long interconnect times, could make large-scale solar deployment difficult, leaving a vital role for alternative sources like nuclear.

Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Says Nuclear Energy Could Overtake Solar As Cheapest Power Source: Here's A List Of Nuclear Energy Linked ETFs To Consider

President Donald Trump is advancing a series of executive orders aimed at dramatically reshaping U.S. nuclear energy policy to accelerate the construction of new nuclear power plants and reduce regulatory barriers. Several companies in the nuclear energy sector could benefit from accelerated expansion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45337965/google-to-fund-three-nuclear-sites-says-the-move-will-allow-them-to-move-at-the-speed-required-to-meet-this-moment-of-ai-and-american-innovation">of the industry.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: The Trump administration's draft executive orders are intended to quadruple U.S. nuclear power production by 2050, increasing capacity from about 100 gigawatts to 400 gigawatts,<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/climate/trump-draft-nuclear-executive-orders.html"> according</a> to the New York Times.&nbsp;

The orders cite the need to catch up with China and Russia, which have recently dominated new nuclear reactor deployments. Trump also aims to rebuild domestic uranium and nuclear fuel supply chains and reduce reliance on Russian and Chinese imports.&nbsp;
Stocks To Watch: Companies directly involved in nuclear power generation, uranium mining and enrichment as well as advanced reactor technology, stand to benefit from an acceleration in construction and deregulation of the nuclear energy industry. 
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>) are major utility companies with nuclear assets and are well-positioned to benefit from streamlined regulations and a supportive policy environment.&nbsp;
Oklo, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>), which is focused on small modular reactors (SMR), is gaining traction as Trump's policies favor rapid deployment of advanced nuclear technologies and AI/data center partnerships. 
NuScale Power Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>) is another company developing SMR technology and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45361335/nuscale-power-reports-q1-results-details"> is positioned</a> to capitalize on streamlined permitting and increased federal support for advanced nuclear projects.&nbsp;
VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLR#NYSE">NLR</a>) provides diversified exposure to leading nuclear utilities, uranium miners and other sector leaders. The ETF could be a lower-risk way to capture upside from the nuclear renaissance.&nbsp;

PG&amp;E reported 2024 adjusted EPS of $1.36, up from $1.23 in 2023,&nbsp;aided by higher customer capital investment, as approved in the 2023 General Rate Case final decision, which earns an equity return&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">under the cost of capital proceeding</a>.
Operating cash flow stood at&nbsp;$8.0 billion&nbsp;in 2024, up from&nbsp;$4.7 billion&nbsp;in 2023.

Outlook: PG&amp;E raised its 2025 adjusted EPS guidance to $1.48 – $1.52 from its previous estimate of $1.47 – $1.51,&nbsp;vs. the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of $1.49</a>.
The company targets a dividend payout ratio of around 20% of core earnings by 2028.
PG&amp;E CEO&nbsp;Patti Poppe said, &#8220;In 2024, we continued progress in ways that matter to both customers and investors. We delivered energy safely—our system has never been safer, and we are working to make it even safer. We stabilized combined gas and electric bills for residential customers. And we connected more new customers to our grid than we have in decades.&#8221;&nbsp;
In a separate release, the company stated that it is planning to support approximately 5.5 gigawatts (GW) of new data center energy&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43713032/pg-e-accelerating-connection-of-new-data-centers-throughout-northern-and-central-california" rel="noreferrer noopener">demand over the next decade</a>.&nbsp;
Of this, 1.4 GW is in the final design phase and&nbsp;is expected&nbsp;to become operational between 2026 and 2030.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Listed Funds Trust TrueShares Eagle Global Renewable Energy Income ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNWZ#NYSE">RNWZ</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;VanEck Uranium And Nuclear ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NLR#NYSE">NLR</a>).

Pacific Gas &amp; Electric Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCG#NYSE">PCG</a>) stock has recently faced volatility amid shifting investor sentiment <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/utilities">and market dynamics.</a>
Activist investor Dan Loeb&#8216;s hedge fund, Third Point, held 49.7 million shares in utility company Pacific Gas &amp; Electric Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCG#NYSE">PCG</a>) as of Sept. 30, 2024, making it the fund&#8217;s largest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/01/42788070/hedge-fund-giant-dan-loebs-pge-bet-beats-market">holding at the time.</a>
On Jan. 13, 2025, BMO Capital analyst James M. Thalacker initiated coverage on the company with an Outperform and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/pcg/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> a price target of $21</a>.
The analyst writes that he views PCG shares as a core holding in the regulated utility sector, offering investors a rare combination of deep value and premium, visible growth potential.
Thalacker&#8217;s five-year forecast (2024-2028) projects EPS growth of around 9.2% and rate base growth of about 10%, aligning with the company's long-term EPS target of at least 9%.
Also, on Dec. 17, JPMorgan analysts Jeremy Tonet and Richard W. Sunderland stated that they believe PG&amp;E's wildfire mitigation investments, data center pipeline and re-rating potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/01/42788070/hedge-fund-giant-dan-loebs-pge-bet-beats-market" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">could drive substantial gains</a>. 
Notably, last month, the Department of Energy disclosed plans to provide Pacific Gas &amp; Electric with a record $15 billion loan guarantee to strengthen its electrical grid and support climate resiliency initiatives.

Dan Loeb's PG&E Play: Growth, Resilience, And $63 Billion Investments

Nuclear energy stocks and ETFs have come to the fore as ARK Invest&#8217;s founder Cathie Wood <a href="https://www.ark-invest.com/articles/analyst-research/nuclear-energy-could-contribute-meaningfully-to-securing-net-zero-emissions">reshared the firm&#8217;s study </a>on how regulatory hurdles and anti-nuclear sentiment have caused cost overruns and rendered nuclear energy less cost-competitive than natural gas today.
This comes as Tesla Inc. and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is all set to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) along with Republican politician Vivek Ramaswamy. As the task force promises to dismantle bureaucracy, reduce regulations, and cut wasteful expenditures, ARKinvest tried to redirect DOGE&#8217;s official page on X (formerly Twitter) to focus on the regulatory hurdles that nuclear energy as a sector has faced in the last 20 years.

What Happened: &#8220;The International Energy Agency has identified nuclear energy as vital to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, yet nuclear power in the United States has stagnated at ~20% of the energy mix since the Chernobyl disaster in 1986,&#8221; said an ARKInvest note based on data from IEA as of October 2023.
In addition to its cost-effectiveness, nuclear power provides a reliable, continuous, and carbon-free supply of energy. These are important now since an explosion in demand for artificial intelligence is taxing the electricity consumption of data centers.

Daniel Maguire, research associate at ARKInvest stated in his report dated April 2024 that stringent regulatory changes and anti-nuclear sentiment have stunted the build-out of nuclear capacity and caused cost overruns in developing US nuclear plants.
Regulatory changes in the mid-to-late seventies, including the establishment of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Energy Research and Development Administration, introduced stricter licensing measures, increasing costs significantly. Without such stringent regulations, ARKInvest&#8217;s research suggests that lower cost trajectories could have saved the US about $345 billion, or ~72% of the total.

Why It Matters: With the introduction of the U.S. Advanced Reactor Demonstration Project and other emerging government support programs, nuclear cost overruns should reverse course as countries look for robust clean energy solutions to meet their net carbon emissions reduction commitments.
Maguire&#8217;s tweet shared by Wood, tagged the Department of Government Efficiency, to bring this to light. The department is scheduled to complete its work by July 4, 2026, coinciding with America's 250th independence anniversary. Focus on this area could help spur activity in the nuclear energy sector by developing clean, carbon-free energy production avenues at lower costs.

Cathie Wood Redirects Elon Musk's DOGE Focus Toward Nuclear Energy Amid Regulatory Challenges: Here's How Oklo, Cameco, Centrus Energy And Other Stocks Performed

In a major step toward securing Virginia's reliable energy future, Appalachian Power announces plans to bring Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) to Virginia. Appalachian Power representatives identified a potential site for an SMR project on company-owned Joshua Falls property in Campbell County, Virginia, and plan to begin the Early Site Permit Application process. This site provides access to existing electrical infrastructure that is necessary for a generation project. The site includes a 765 kilovolt substation and nearby roadways can support moving the necessary equipment onsite.
This is a significant milestone in the company's efforts to provide reliable and clean energy to its customers. SMR technology offers tremendous potential to provide safe, reliable and clean energy 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The relatively small footprint allows SMRs to be constructed in areas that were not previously feasible for nuclear energy generation. SMR sites can also be scaled to match the energy needs of the state. A single SMR can generate up to 500 megawatts (MW) of clean energy.

Appalachian Power Explores Small Modular Reactors To Meet Future Energy Demand In Virginia

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.

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.

Nuclear Stocks Are Tumbling Monday: What's Going On?

The European Nuclear Alliance has called upon the European Commission to<a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/european-alliance-wants-eu-to-reconsider?r=3nmatg"> consider nuclear energy as "essential contributors"</a> to decarbonization pathways in Europe.
"We strongly encourage the upcoming college of Commissioners to deliver a paradigm shift in our energy policy," the alliance said at the Energy Council meeting held in Luxembourg on October 15. The commission should <a href="https://x.com/AnnaHbrt/status/1846189053479116986">recognize the role of nuclear energy</a>, alongside renewables, "for the future of our integrated energy system," it added.&nbsp;
The alliance comprises 12 members, including Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Hungary, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Sweden.
However, some experts have argued for a faster deployment of cleaner alternatives. They cite the environmental risks associated with nuclear energy and the disposing of reactor waste.
European Union (EU) states, like Germany and Spain, have pushed to keep <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/germany-spain-push-keep-nuclear-out-eu-renewable-energy-goals-2023-03-16/">nuclear out of EU renewable energy goals</a>. They have warned that taking into account low-carbon energy would slow down the deployment of renewables.
"Without such energies, there is no path for the EU to provide to its citizens affordable, reliable and abundant low-carbon energy," the alliance said.
The EU must also compete against a U.S. and China. The world&#8217;s two biggest economies plan to construct several new conventional and small modular reactors.&nbsp;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">European Investments In Nuclear Power</h3>
Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Europe's need to invest in nuclear energy has accelerated, according to a survey published in December 2022. The Flash Eurobarometer 514 survey showed that 58% of EU respondents believed <a href="https://europa.eu/eurobarometer/surveys/detail/2912">member states should invest in nuclear</a>.&nbsp;
As the demand for low-carbon energy surges, Europe is investing heavily in nuclear energy. However, the UK and France are in the lead.&nbsp;
The UK announced a "major <a href="https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profiles/countries-t-z/united-kingdom#:~:text=The%20UK%20generates%20about%2015,6.5%20GW%20of%20nuclear%20capacity">acceleration of homegrown power</a>" to "boost long-term energy independence, security and prosperity."

The government plans to increase this usage to 25% or up to 24GW by 2050.
In France, 70% of electricity already comes from nuclear energy. In 2023, the <a href="https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profiles/countries-a-f/france">French government abandoned plans to reduce nuclear</a> energy. It instead is focusing on building six new reactors.&nbsp;

European Alliance Calls On EU To Reconsider Nuclear Power Policies

A decommissioned nuclear power plant in Michigan is being brought back to life.
Pushed by a growing need for carbon-free energy, the Palisades nuclear power plant will be the first in the U.S. to be recommissioned after shutting down.
The Palisades plant was built in the late 1960s and began running in 1973. It was purchased in 2006 by Louisiana-based electricity producer Entergy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETR#NYSE">ETR</a>), which ran it until 2022.
Although the plant had a license extension that allowed it to be active until 2031, Entergy chose to shut it down, citing the high costs associated with running a nuclear power plant.
The plant was sold to nuclear equipment provider Holtec International, which was in charge of taking the plant out of commission.
In 2022, Holtec announced plans to re-open the facility, something that has never been done before in the U.S.
This year, the U.S. Department of Energy announced a commitment of $1.52 billion in loans to finance the restoration and resumption of service of the plant in the hands of Holtec.
According to a WSJ <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/energy-oil/biden-nuclear-power-plant-loan-michigan-eee64904?mod=hp_lead_pos7">report</a>, the company is now working on restoring the facility to modern-day standards. The plant will be back online by October 2025, according to the company's plans.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Nuclear Gets Revamped&nbsp;</h3>
A growing need for electricity is behind the renewed interest in nuclear energy.
In a recent interview with Elon Musk, former President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40329545/trump-left-shocked-by-power-hungry-ai-tells-elon-musk-requires-twice-the-energy-that-the-country-alr">expressed shock at the amount of electricity required</a> to fuel artificial intelligence systems.

The Biden administration has placed a high bet on the ability of nuclear power to free the country from its dependency on fossil fuels to produce energy.&nbsp;
Fossil fuels account for 60% of U.S. electricity production, according to the Energy information Administration.
The Biden White House has set the goal of having a zero-emission power grid by 2035 and has included several tax credits and other incentives for nuclear within the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/inflation-reduction-act">Inflation Reduction Act of 2022</a>.
The government recently set-up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/06/39553699/us-to-invest-2-7b-in-domestic-uranium-cutting-reliance-on-russia">a $2.7-billion investment in U.S.-made uranium</a> to decrease dependency on Russian imports.
Interest in nuclear power dropped as fracking practices opened the floodgates for cheap natural gas, which lowered the cost of burning gas to produce electricity.
Isolated nuclear plant accidents helped strengthen public rejection of the technology. These include the meltdown of the Three Mile Island reactor in 1979, the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 in Ukraine and the Fukushima accident in Japan in 2011.
High construction costs and continuing concerns regarding the storage of nuclear waste continued to weigh against the development of new nuclear energy projects in recent decades.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Projects Come Online</h3>
The nuclear sector might be getting a new push. A Pew Research Center <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/08/05/majority-of-americans-support-more-nuclear-power-in-the-country/">survey</a> from May of this year found that support for nuclear power in the U.S. has grown consistently throughout the last 10 years. 
Today, 56% of U.S. adults support the development of nuclear energy projects.
The U.S. has 94 active nuclear reactors, down from a peak of 111 in the late 1990s. These exist in 54 nuclear power plants in 28 states.
The two newest reactors launched commercial operations in 2023 and 2024 at the Alvin W. Vogtle Electric Generating Plant in Georgia. They're operated by Southern Nuclear, a subsidiary of Southern Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>).
The two reactors cost $35 billion to build, <a href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/after-vogtle-whats-next-for-nuclear/">according</a> to E&amp;E News.
Some companies working on advanced reactor designs are looking to obtain licenses from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to build new reactors.
Nuscale Power Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>), a company developing small modular reactors, canceled its project to build a six-reactor, 462-megawatt plant in Utah in 2023 after several municipalities pulled out due to high construction costs, Reuters reported.
The company is expecting to deploy two dozen small modular reactors for plants in Ohio and Pennsylvania, per E&amp;E News.
Other companies are developing new projects that still need demonstrations to become mainstream technology.
Kairos Power is developing a test reactor in Oak Ridge, Tennessee to test its fluoride salt-cooled, high temperature reactor technology. The company has received a $303-million pledge from the Department of Energy to complete this project.
Earlier this month, TerraPower, a company founded by Bill Gates, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39263769/bill-gates-terrapower-ventures-into-advanced-nuclear-plant-construction-aiming-to-combat-climate-cri">started building its first advanced reactor in Wyoming</a>, which, like Kairos', doesn't use water for cooling.

Power-Hungry AI Revives Interest In Nuclear Energy: Michigan To Reopen Closed Plant For First Time In History

Uranium explorers are calling on Western Australian authorities to lift the ban on uranium mining to capitalize on rising global demand and prices. Australia holds nearly a third of the world's known uranium reserves, yet only two out of its eight states and territories, South Australia and the Northern Territory, permit <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining" rel="noreferrer noopener">mining</a>.
Uranium prices have surged, driven by the global shift toward nuclear energy as part of the energy transition. This rise in demand is essential for meeting decarbonization goals, with many countries planning to increase their nuclear energy capacity significantly.
Still, Australia has only two operating projects, producing a fraction of its capabilities and potentially missing export opportunities.
"The bans in some states like Western Australia, which is known for its mining history, are nonsensical and leave the nation at risk of missing out on soaring global demand. The time is now to remove these bans — there's a real economic cost to not doing it, "Jonathan Fisher, CEO of Cauldron Energy (OTCPK: CAULF), a uranium explorer, said <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-08-05/uranium-miners-say-australia-to-miss-out-on-boom-in-nuclear-fuel" rel="noreferrer noopener">for</a> Bloomberg.
Now read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40044763/uranium-prices-surge-to-16-year-highs-due-to-supply-uncertainties-rising-demand-for-ai-data-centers" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uranium Prices Surge To 16-Year Highs Due To Supply Uncertainties, Rising Demand For AI Data Centers</a>
In addition to environmental concerns, Australia has a complex cultural heritage situation, as evidenced by the recent ban on mining at the Jabiluka site.
Discovered in the early 1970s, this high-grade uranium deposit has been at the center of legal and cultural disputes between Indigenous custodians and mining companies. The government recently <a target="_blank" href="https://www.minister.industry.gov.au/ministers/king/media-releases/work-begins-add-jabiluka-site-kakadu-national-park" rel="noreferrer noopener">extended</a> the Kakadu National Park to include Jabiluka, prohibiting further mining activities.
Despite environmental concerns lingering from past incidents like the Chornobyl and Fukushima disasters and the ongoing cleanup from toxic leaks at the Ranger project in the Northern Territory, the industry argues that modern regulations and technologies can mitigate such risks.
The country's two operating uranium mines, BHP Group's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>) Olympic Dam and Boss Energy's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BQSSF#OTC">BQSSF</a>) Honeymoon project, contribute around 9% of the world's uranium supply.
The rising uranium prices, currently above $80 per pound, show the potential economic benefits of lifting the ban.
"Country after country has declared renewables aren't going to achieve their targets, and that nuclear will be a big component to reach net zero," said John Borshoff, CEO of uranium explorer Deep Yellow (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DYLLF#OTC">DYLLF</a>) which has the Mulga Rock project in Western Australia.
The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Western Australia (CCIWA) supports lifting the ban. Earlier this year, they published a <a target="_blank" href="https://cciwa.com/business-pulse/uranium-mining-worth-1b-and-9000-jobs-cciwa-report/" rel="noreferrer noopener">study</a> estimating that lifting the ban could generate $1 billion and create 9,000 jobs.

PG&E Posts Mixed Bag Of Q1 Earnings, Plows Billions Into Safety

The global shift towards clean energy sources has intensified the search for reliable and scalable alternatives to fossil fuels. While the solar and wind power sectors&nbsp;have captured significant attention, a renewed interest in nuclear energy is emerging. Nuclear power, with its potential for consistent baseload generation, small footprint (particularly with newer technologies), and improving safety profile, holds the potential to outperform traditional renewables in specific contexts.
Could nuclear energy stocks be the key to outperforming the broader renewable energy market in the long run?&nbsp;
<h2>Unleashing the Power of the Atom: Uranium Miners</h2>
Uranium, the foundational element of nuclear power, will become an increasingly valuable commodity in the coming years. If the push for clean energy fuels a nuclear resurgence, uranium mining companies will be positioned at the forefront of this transition. Let&#39;s look at some of the key players in this subsector of the mining sector:
<h3>Cameco Corporation&nbsp;</h3>
Cameco Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ccj#NYSE">CCJ</a>), a global giant in uranium production, stands out for its extensive reserves and established track record in the industry. Ranked among the world&#39;s leading uranium producers, Cameco&#39;s expertise and substantial reserves in Canada make it a significant player in the global uranium market.
<h3>Denison Mines</h3>
Denison Mines&nbsp;(AMEX:DNN)&nbsp;is committed to environmentally conscious mining operations. The company is actively involved in exploration and development projects within the Athabasca Basin region of Canada, which is renowned for its abundance of uranium resources. Denison prioritizes environmentally responsible mining practices and holds a diverse portfolio of projects, including exploration and development assets in this uranium-rich region of Canada.
<h3>Energy Fuels</h3>
Energy Fuels (AMEX:UUUU), a US-based mining company, has diversified operations that encompass uranium, vanadium, and rare earth element recovery. This multifaceted approach positions Energy Fuels to capitalize on various critical material needs. Notably, beyond uranium, Energy Fuels engages in the recovery of vanadium and rare earth elements. This unique combination makes them an intriguing player as demand for these materials evolves.
<h3>NexGen Energy</h3>
NexGen Energy&#39;s (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nxe#NYSE">NXE</a>) claim to fame is the high-grade Arrow Deposit, a substantial uranium resource located in Canada&#39;s Athabasca Basin. The quality of this deposit and its projected long mine life make NexGen a company to watch. Additionally, NexGen boasts a relatively low expected production cost, which could improve its profitability if uranium prices surge. The company is also exploring the possibility of using innovative in-situ recovery (ISR) mining techniques, further differentiating its approach.
Uranium miners face unique risks, such as fluctuating commodity prices and the potential for regulatory changes that could impact their operations. However, if the anticipated surge in nuclear power demand materializes, these companies could potentially deliver substantial returns for investors.
<h2>The Next Generation: Reactor Developers</h2>
While traditional nuclear power plants have proven their capabilities, they often come with large capital costs, lengthy construction timelines, and a degree of public anxiety. A wave of innovative companies are tackling these challenges by developing new reactor technologies that promise greater safety, scalability, and potential cost advantages. Let&#39;s examine a few key players in this space:
<h3>NuScale Power&nbsp;</h3>
NuScale Power (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/smr#NYSE">SMR</a>) pioneered small modular reactor (SMR) technology. Unlike traditional plants, SMRs are designed to be smaller, factory-built units that can be deployed more quickly and potentially with lower upfront costs. NuScale aims to make nuclear power more accessible for a broader range of electricity needs, potentially opening new markets for nuclear energy.
<h3>Centrus Energy&nbsp;</h3>
Centrus Energy&nbsp;(AMEX:LEU) isn&#39;t solely focused on reactor design but plays a crucial role in the nuclear fuel cycle. The company is developing advanced nuclear fuels explicitly designed for next-generation reactors. They&#39;ve also forged a significant partnership with TerraPower, a venture-backed by Bill Gates, to advance new reactor technologies. This partnership highlights Centrus&#39; importance in the broader scheme of nuclear innovation.
<h3>BWX Technologies&nbsp;</h3>
BWX Technologies (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bwxt#NYSE">BWXT</a>) has a strong legacy of providing components and services for the existing nuclear power industry. However, it is also looking ahead by actively developing microreactors. These ultra-small reactors hold the potential to provide energy in remote areas or to power specific applications like military bases. BWX&#39;s diversification across both current and future nuclear needs makes it a compelling company to add to your watchlist.
With their advancements, reactor developers have the potential to transform the nuclear power technology landscape. As they strive to make nuclear energy safer, more adaptable to diverse energy demands and scalable, these companies spearhead innovation. Although technological challenges remain, the triumphs of these pioneers could significantly expand nuclear energy&#39;s role in a future powered by clean energy.
<h2>Established Utilities with a Nuclear Advantage</h2>
Traditional energy utilities already heavily invested in nuclear power offer investors a unique way to participate in the sector. While new technologies are exciting, established utility companies with operational nuclear fleets provide exposure to a more established segment of the industry. Let&#39;s take a closer look at two major players:
<h3>Duke Energy&nbsp;</h3>
Duke Energy (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/duk#NYSE">DUK</a>) is a leading US utility company that boasts a substantial nuclear power fleet. This nuclear component complements its diverse portfolio, which also includes renewable energy sources and natural gas generation. For investors, Duke Energy offers a balance between the potential upside of the nuclear sector and the stability of a large, diversified utility company.
<h3>Exelon Corporation&nbsp;</h3>
Exelon Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/exc#NASDAQ">EXC</a>) holds a dominant position as one of the largest operators of nuclear power plants in the United States. Unlike Duke, Exelon&#39;s power generation relies more heavily on nuclear facilities. This makes Exelon a more direct play on potential legislative or market changes that favor the nuclear energy industry and could lead to increased profitability for the company&#39;s nuclear segment.
Established utilities with significant nuclear operations provide a different investment opportunity than pure-play uranium miners or cutting-edge reactor developers. These utilities offer a way to benefit from a potential nuclear resurgence while also often maintaining a broader portfolio of energy assets that can provide some measure of stability. Investors will need to assess their risk tolerance and the role they envision nuclear stocks playing within their overall portfolio when considering companies like Duke Energy and Exelon.
<h2>Diversifying Nuclear Investment: The Role of ETFs</h2>
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) provide investors a streamlined way to gain exposure to the nuclear energy sector without directly investing in individual companies. This basket approach can mitigate some risks associated with single stocks while allowing investors to benefit from the sector&#39;s potential growth. Here&#39;s a breakdown of two prominent ETFs in the nuclear space:
<h3>Global X Uranium ETF&nbsp;</h3>
The Global X Uranium ETF (ARCA:URA) is specifically designed to track companies involved in the mining and producing of uranium, along with businesses engaged in related stages of the nuclear fuel cycle. This ETF offers investors a more targeted way to bet on the rising demand for uranium if the resurgence of nuclear power comes to fruition.
<h3>VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF</h3>
The VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF (ARCA:NLR) adopts a slightly broader approach than the Global X Uranium ETF. While still capturing exposure to uranium-related companies, this ETF also includes companies engaged in constructing and operating nuclear power plants. This expanded focus could benefit if both uranium demand and positive sentiment towards atomic power generation increase in tandem.
Nuclear energy ETFs present an appealing option for investors seeking a convenient and diversified approach to the industry. These ETFs eliminate the need for extensive research into individual companies but still give investors access to the potential growth trajectory of the nuclear sector. Investors must carefully consider the specific holdings and management fees of any exchange-traded fund before investing.
<h2>Policy and Regulation: The X-Factor</h2>
Government policies and regulations are pivotal in shaping the nuclear energy landscape. Favorable policies, like tax incentives or streamlined development processes, could ignite the sector, while restrictive regulations could hamper its growth. Investors need to keep a close eye on the evolving regulatory environment, as policies can greatly influence the prospects for nuclear-related investments.
<h2>Nuclear Power in A Global Context</h2>
Developing economies with booming energy needs could turn to nuclear power as a solution to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and address growing energy security concerns. China and India, for instance, already have ambitious nuclear power expansion plans. This global trend underscores the long-term potential for the nuclear sector and its associated stocks.
<h2>Challenges and Considerations: The Other Side of the Equation</h2>
Acknowledging the challenges and potential risks associated with nuclear power before making any investment decisions is essential. These include:
<ul>
<li>Waste Disposal: The safe and long-term storage of radioactive waste remains a contentious issue. While technological advancements offer potential solutions, this remains a concern for investors and the communities surrounding nuclear plants.</li>
<li>Risk of Accidents: Though safety standards have significantly improved, the potential for accidents, however rare, can generate public fear and negatively impact nuclear investments.</li>
<li>Long Development Timelines: Constructing new nuclear power plants can be lengthy and capital-intensive, making investment returns less immediate than other energy sectors.</li>
</ul>
Nuclear energy stocks have the potential to be lucrative investments in the long term, particularly if the growing need for reliable, low-carbon energy outweighs the industry&#39;s concerns and challenges. Nuclear technology isn&#39;t a silver bullet, but it can play a significant role in the diverse energy mix required for a sustainable future. While nuclear may not fully eclipse solar and wind power, the unique advantages of atomic energy may prove essential on the path toward a cleaner energy future.

COPJ는 전 세계 공급이 안정되고 친환경 기술 및 전기차 인프라에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 상승한 구리 가격을 타고 있다. 일반적으로 변동성이 더 큰 주니어 구리 광산업체들은 금속의 장기 경로를 찾는 투자자들로부터 확고한 매수를 받았다.
시장 개요
월스트리트는 드라마가 가득한 한 주를 선사했으며, 시장은 낙관과 우려 사이를 오갔다. 화요일은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45627060/wall-street-rockets-as-bond-yields-drop-tesla-hits-3-month-highs-whats-driving-markets-tuesday">하락하는 채권 수익률이 광범위한 상승을 뒷받침하면서</a> 강력한 출발을 보였고, S&amp;P 500과 나스닥이 상승하며 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)는 3개월 최고치로 급등했다.
그러나 수요일에는 투자자들이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45651401/wall-street-stalls-as-treasury-yields-climb-again-ahead-of-nvidia-earnings-fed-minutes-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">엔비디아의 실적 발표</a>와 연준 회의록 발표를 앞두고 긴장하며 모멘텀을 잃었다. 채권 수익률이 천천히 상승하며 분위기를 망쳤다.
목요일에는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45677482/stocks-edge-higher-nvidia-rallies-to-3-month-highs-bitcoin-dips-below-107000-whats-driving-markets-thursday">엔비디아가 견고한 실적을 발표하며</a> 기술 산업을 매료시켰고, 주가는 3개월 최고치로 상승하며 더 넓은 시장을 끌어올렸다. 이는 부분적으로 트럼프의 중국 수입에 대한 여러 관세를 일시적으로 차단하는 법원 결정에 의해 도움을 받았다.
모든 것이 순조로워 보일 때, 금요일에 먹구름이 드리웠다: 도널드 트럼프는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45701116/wall-street-slumps-as-trump-reignites-china-trade-tensions-nvidia-wipes-out-earnings-rally-whats-driving-markets-friday">중국과의 무역 긴장을 재점화하며 베이징이 관세 휴전을 위반했다고 비난</a>했다. 이는 투자자들을 스스로 놀라게 했고 엔비디아의 급등세를 지웠다. 비트코인은 $107,000 아래로 떨어지며 암호화폐 불안감을 더했다. 전반적으로 이번 주는 실적의 환희, 채권 시장의 불안 그리고 지정학적 데자뷰의 변동성 있는 칵테일이었다.

아크 인베스트의 창립자 캐시 우드가 회사의 리서치를 재공유한 이후 원자력 에너지 주식과 ETF가 다시 주목을 받고 있다. <a href="https://www.ark-invest.com/articles/analyst-research/nuclear-energy-could-contribute-meaningfully-to-securing-net-zero-emissions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">해당 리서치</a>는 규제 장애물과 반원자력 정서가 어떻게 비용 초과를 야기하고 오늘날 원자력이 천연가스보다 가격 경쟁력이 떨어지게 만들었는지에 관한 내용이다.
한편, 테슬라와 스페이스X의 CEO인 일론 머스크가 공화당 정치인 비벡 라마스와미와 함께 정부효율부(DOGE)를 공동으로 이끌게 될 것이다. 이 태스크포스가 관료주의를 해체하고 규제를 줄이며 낭비성 지출을 줄이겠다고 약속한 가운데, 아크 인베스트는 소셜 플랫폼 X에서 지난 20년 동안 원자력 에너지 분야가 직면했던 규제 장애물을 강조했다.

무슨 일 일어났나: 2023년 10월 기준 국제에너지기구(IEA) 데이터를 기반으로 한 아크 인베스트의 메모에 따르면 IEA는 &#8220;2050년까지 탄소중립을 달성하기 위해 원자력이 필수적이라고 밝혔지만, 1986년 체르노빌 사고 이후 미국의 원자력은 에너지 믹스의 약 20%에서 정체되어 있다&#8221;.
원자력은 비용 효율성 외에도 안정적이고 지속적이며 탄소 배출이 없는 에너지 공급을 제공한다. 이는 인공지능에 대한 수요가 폭발적으로 증가하면서 데이터센터의 전력 소비에 부담이 되고 있는 지금 중요한 요소라고 볼 수 있다.
아크 인베스트의 다니엘 맥과이어 연구원은 2024년 4월에 발표한 보고서에서 엄격한 규제 변화와 반원자력 정서가 원전 건설을 저해하고 미국 원전 개발에서 비용 초과를 야기했다고 밝혔다.
원자력규제위원회와 에너지연구개발청의 설립 등 70년대 중후반의 규제 변화는 더 엄격한 인허가 조치를 도입하여 비용을 크게 증가시켰다. 아크 인베스트의 리서치에 따르면, 이러한 엄격한 규제가 없었다면 미국은 약 3,450억 달러, 즉 전체의 72%를 절감할 수 있었을 것으로 추정된다.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-652244" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/18014702/Nuclear-plan-costs-1024x754.png" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/18014702/Nuclear-plan-costs-1024x754.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/18014702/Nuclear-plan-costs-300x221.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/18014702/Nuclear-plan-costs-768x566.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/18014702/Nuclear-plan-costs.png 1466w" alt="" width="1024" height="754" /></figure>
왜 중요한가: 미국 첨단 원자로 시범 프로젝트(U.S. Advanced Reactor Demonstration Project)와 기타 새로운 정부 지원 프로그램의 도입으로 원자력 비용 초과가 역전될 것으로 보인다. 각국이 순 탄소 배출량 감축 공약을 달성하기 위해 강력한 청정 에너지 솔루션을 모색하고 있기 때문이다.
맥과이어의 게시물은 캐시 우드가 공유하고 정부효율부 계정에 태그되면서 이러한 문제를 부각시켰다. 정부효율부는 미국 독립 250주년이 되는 2026년 7월 4일까지 작업을 완료할 예정이고, 원자력 분야에 집중하면 저비용으로 탄소 배출이 없는 깨끗한 에너지 생산 방법을 개발하여 원자력 분야의 활동을 촉진하는 데 도움이 될 수 있다.
주가 움직임: 장기적인 규제 장애물과 비용 상승에도 불구하고 원자력 주식은 연초 대비 양호한 성과를 거두었다. 오클로(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>), 카메코(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCJ#NYSE">CCJ</a>), 센트러스 에너지(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEU#NYSE">LEU</a>), 누스케일 파워(SMR), VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF(ACRA:NLR) 모두 올해 들어 16.65% 상승한 NYSE 종합지수보다 우수한 성과를 보였다.
