Oklo stock jumps as Meta backs 1.2-GW Ohio nuclear power campus for AI data centers

New York, January 9, 2026, 12:06 PM EST — Regular session Oklo Inc (OKLO) shares rose sharply on Friday after the company said it reached an agreement with Meta Platforms to support development of a 1.2-gigawatt nuclear energy campus in southern Ohio. Oklo was up $11.22, or about 11.5%, at $108.82, after trading as high as $120.87 on volume of about 22.1 million shares. (Oklo) The deal lands as big tech firms hunt for long-term power as artificial intelligence and data centers push U.S. electricity demand higher.

Why Vistra (VST) stock is jumping premarket: Meta signs 20-year nuclear power deals

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 07:23 EST — Premarket Vistra Corp shares jumped roughly 8% in premarket trading on Friday after Meta Platforms said it had signed 20-year deals to purchase electricity from three of Vistra’s nuclear facilities. Meta said the agreements include Vistra’s Perry and Davis-Besse plants in Ohio and the Beaver Valley plant in Pennsylvania.

NuScale Power stock jumps in premarket after BofA upgrade lifts SMR shares

NuScale Power stock jumps in premarket after BofA upgrade lifts SMR shares

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 07:19 EST — Premarket NuScale Power shares jumped about 12% in premarket trading on Friday after Bank of America Securities upgraded the nuclear technology company. The stock was up around $2.4 at $22.08 after closing at $19.67 on Thursday. (StockAnalysis) The move matters because NuScale has been a proxy trade for the market’s bigger debate on power demand and financing: how fast “advanced nuclear” projects can move from headlines to funded orders. It is also the kind of high-beta name that can gap sharply on broker calls, then give it back just as quickly once

Constellation Energy stock slips today as Calpine deal steps and nuclear AI demand stay in focus

Constellation Energy stock slips today as Calpine deal steps and nuclear AI demand stay in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 23:22 ET — Market closed Constellation Energy Corporation shares slipped 0.4% to $357.12 on Tuesday, ending the session lower as the market headed into the final trading days of the year. The move matters because Constellation has become a key proxy for bets that electricity demand from artificial intelligence data centers will keep tightening U.S. power markets, lifting the value of steady, around-the-clock generation such as nuclear. Nuclear sentiment was in focus again after Duke Energy said it applied to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission for an early site permit for a potential new nuclear

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

Three Mile Island Restart: Energy Secretary Chris Wright Says Crane Clean Energy Center Can Cut Power Prices and Fuel Microsoft’s AI Push

LONDONDERRY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (Dec. 18, 2025) — The U.S. Energy Secretary is betting that one of the most symbolically loaded names in American energy history can become a blueprint for the next era of electricity demand: artificial intelligence. This week, Energy Secretary Chris Wright visited the former Three Mile Island nuclear station—now branded as the Crane Clean Energy Center—to promote a planned restart of the site’s Unit 1 reactor, arguing that more nuclear generation will strengthen reliability, reduce blackout risks, and ultimately push electricity prices down.
