Centrus Energy stock leaps 12% to start 2026 as uranium names rally — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 3, 2026, 19:20 ET — Market closed Centrus Energy Corp shares jumped 12.2% in the first U.S. trading session of 2026 on Friday, riding a broad rebound in uranium-linked stocks. The stock was last at $272.50 after ranging from $245.75 to $272.68, with about 1.07 million shares traded, according to market data. The move matters because the nuclear supply chain — especially enriched uranium — has become a pinch point as governments and developers push advanced reactors toward commercialization.

CleanSpark stock jumps 14% to start 2026 as Bitcoin steadies near $90,000 — what’s next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:56 ET — Market closed CleanSpark shares jumped 14.1% in the latest session, closing at $11.55 after swinging between $10.18 and $11.58.

Yahoo Finance The rally mattered because crypto-linked equities are starting 2026 still tethered to bitcoin’s day-to-day swings. Bitcoin mining companies sell or hold the coins they produce, so a move in the token can quickly change revenue expectations in dollar terms. That sensitivity is coming into focus ahead of a busy U.S. economic week. Traders are watching whether

Energy Fuels (UUUU) stock jumps 15% in 2026’s first session — what’s behind it and what’s next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:57 ET — Market closed Energy Fuels Inc shares closed up 14.7% at $16.68 on Friday, the first U.S. trading session of 2026, after swinging between $14.66 and $17.07. Investing The move matters because uranium-linked names are often driven by momentum and commodity pricing, and the sector started the year with a broad risk-on bid. Traders use the early-January tape to gauge whether last year’s uranium theme is re-accelerating or fading. Energy Fuels sits in the middle of two narratives — nuclear fuel and critical minerals — which can amplify its moves when investors rotate

NuScale Power stock jumps 15% to start 2026 as nuclear names rally — what to watch Monday

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:56 ET — Market closed NuScale Power Corp (SMR) shares climbed 15.1% on Friday to $16.31, after trading between $14.33 and $16.73. Volume was about 31.1 million shares.

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:49 ET — Market closed Sandisk Corp shares jumped 15.95% on Friday to close at $275.24, their best day so far this year, as the Nasdaq-listed flash-storage maker rode a rebound in chip-linked stocks. The stock traded between $242.00 and $278.78 and changed hands at roughly 11.1 million shares. The move matters because Sandisk has become a high-beta proxy for artificial-intelligence infrastructure spending, as data centers lean on flash-based solid-state drives for faster storage. The company was spun off from Western Digital in February and finished 2025 up about 559% from its $36 debut price,

The U.S.-listed stock ended up 0.78% at $5.14. StockAnalysis The delivery update is one of the first hard data points for China’s EV demand as investors reset expectations for 2026. For NIO, deliveries track vehicles handed over to customers and often move the stock faster than quarterly revenue. The news hit as global EV sentiment turned cautious after Tesla’s annual deliveries fell for a second year and China’s BYD

Archer Aviation stock jumps 8% (ACHR) — insider sale filing and key dates investors watch next week

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:20 ET — Market closed Archer Aviation Inc shares ended Friday up about 8.4% at $8.13, after swinging between $7.51 and $8.20. Roughly 45 million shares changed hands.

Smaller-growth names broadly caught a bid, with the Russell 2000 tracker IWM up about 1.1%, while SPY edged higher and QQQ dipped. Other electric air taxi developers advanced alongside Archer. Joby Aviation rose about 8.8%, Eve Holding gained about 4.8% and EHang climbed about
