NuScale Power stock swings as new chemical-plant study puts SMR heat back in focus

NEW YORK, Jan 12, 2026, 12:06 PM EST — Regular session NuScale Power Corp shares slipped in midday trading Monday following the release of a study on using its small modular reactors to provide steam and electricity to chemical plants. “NuScale continues to lead … to provide process heat and electricity,” said José Reyes, the company’s co-founder and chief technology officer. (Business Wire) The report is key as NuScale works to convert its reactor design into actual contracts. Securing industrial customers who need reliable steam and power would expand its market beyond utilities, offering investors a fresh metric to judge

NuScale Power stock jumps 15% on nuclear policy buzz — what traders watch before Tuesday’s open

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 21:41 EST — Market closed NuScale Power Corp shares jumped on Monday, with the small modular reactor developer closing up about 15% at $18.78. The move capped a second straight session of double-digit gains for the stock. Nasdaq The rally matters because NuScale and its peers live and die on regulation and capital. Any hint that Washington wants faster licensing — the process regulators use to clear a reactor design and approve a plant site — can reset sentiment quickly in a sector that remains years from broad commercial deployment.

NuScale Power stock jumps 16% as House sets ‘New Nuclear Era’ hearing — what’s next for SMR

New York, January 5, 2026, 11:38 EST — Regular session NuScale Power Corp shares rose 16.1% to $18.93 in late morning trading on Monday. The stock ranged from $16.83 to $19.23, with about 36.3 million shares traded. The jump underscores how quickly traders are repricing small nuclear-reactor names on policy signals early in the year. For companies still years away from meaningful revenue, the prospect of faster approvals can dominate the tape. That focus sharpened after the House Energy and Commerce Committee said it will hold a January 7 hearing titled “American Energy Dominance: Dawn of the New Nuclear Era,”

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 06:46 ET — Market closed NuScale Power Corporation shares jumped 15.1% in the last regular session, closing at $16.31 on Friday with about 30.5 million shares traded, according to Stock Analysis data. StockAnalysis The move put the small-cap nuclear developer among the sharper gainers as investors began 2026 rotating back into higher-volatility corners of the market after a late-December slump. Reuters For NuScale, market chatter centered on sentiment rather than a new company catalyst. Nasdaq.com said the stock rose “apparently on no good news at all,” pointing instead to headlines around a temporary shutdown at

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. The move put the spotlight back on small modular reactor developers, a corner of the market that has been driven as much by shifting risk appetite as by company-specific milestones. “Value is outperforming growth and AI infrastructure is up, and … energy probably too,” said Jed Ellerbroek, a portfolio manager at Argent Capital in St. Louis, describing the market tone on the first trading day of 2026.

NuScale stock jumps 15% to start 2026 trading — here’s what investors watch next

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 10:17 ET — Market closed. NuScale Power Corp shares jumped 15.1% to end Friday at $16.31, outperforming the broader market on the first trading day of 2026. The move matters because NuScale is one of the most actively traded U.S. names tied to the “SMR” theme — small modular reactors — a class of smaller, factory-built nuclear reactors pitched as faster to deploy than traditional plants. Friday’s gain also came as U.S. stocks steadied after late-December weakness, with the Dow up 0.66% and the S&P 500 edging higher while the Nasdaq finished slightly lower. Reuters

NuScale Power stock jumps 15% as nuclear shares rebound — what SMR traders watch next

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 04:20 ET — Market closed. NuScale Power Corporation shares jumped 15.1% on Friday to close at $16.31, after trading between $14.33 and $16.73 on volume of about 31.1 million shares. Oklo rose 8.4%, Cameco gained 7.7% and BWX Technologies advanced 5.2% in the same session. The move matters because NuScale sits in the “advanced nuclear” trade — a volatile corner of the market that investors use to express views on rising power demand and how fast new reactor technology can reach customers. It also lands as traders reset positioning for 2026. “Buy the dip, sell

NuScale Power (SMR) stock slips in premarket as SMR doubts weigh on nuclear names

NuScale Power (SMR) stock slips in premarket as SMR doubts weigh on nuclear names

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 04:49 ET — Premarket NuScale Power shares fell 2.4% to $14.48 in premarket trading on Tuesday, after ending the prior session at about $14.84. The move matters because “advanced nuclear” stocks have become a high-beta pocket of the market into year-end, swinging sharply on sentiment rather than earnings power. For investors, the debate has shifted from “who wins the SMR race” to “who can fund it without punishing shareholders.” Small modular reactors, or SMRs, are smaller nuclear units designed to be built largely in factories and deployed in modules. Backers pitch faster construction and easier

NuScale slides again as dilution worries shadow small-reactor stocks

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 13:58 ET — Regular session NuScale Power Corp shares fell about 2.6% on Monday, extending a late-year slide in high-volatility nuclear-reactor developers. The stock was down 2.6% at $14.46 in afternoon trading. NuScale and its peers have become a fast-moving proxy for sentiment on small modular reactors, or SMRs — smaller nuclear units designed to be factory-built and deployed in clusters to generate power. Bulls argue SMRs could help meet growing electricity demand, including from data centers, while skeptics point to long timelines and uncertain costs. That debate has sharpened into a near-term question for
