Nuscale Power Stock News

When the idea of small modular nuclear reactors first began getting serious investor attention a little over a year ago, it wasn't clear it would stick. The mania felt like a meme stock moment (and in some ways it was), or a repeat of the short-lived hard seltzer or NFT crazes, both of which came to a screeching halt.

So far this year, NuScale Power (SMR 0.66%) stock has more than tripled in value. The reason: rapidly rising interest in small-scale nuclear power.

NuScale Power (SMR 0.66%) is not for the faint of heart, since it is a money-losing start-up. But it has an interesting and fairly well-developed technology in the nuclear power space.

Shares of NuScale (SMR 0.66%) fell this week, finishing down 18.8%. The drop comes as the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq-100 lost 0.3% and 0.5%, respectively.

NuScale is the only SMR company with double NRC approval and an active supplier chain. The ENTRA1 model takes on development, financing and operations, so NuScale focuses on technology and delivery. The TVA agreement for up to 6 GW shows real scale and strong support.
