OKLO stock surged 11.31% to $39.65 on Thursday, driven by a House vote that shifted the focus of energy policy toward data center electricity use. The broader nuclear energy sector also gained traction, with NuScale Power rising 9.16%. The move followed a legislative effort to require large data centers to take on a larger share of grid costs, which analysts believe could bolster demand for advanced nuclear power solutions.
What Happened
Oklo shares opened with a 2.0% gap up at $36.33 and climbed steadily throughout the session, reaching a high of $40.65 at 1:10 PM ET. The stock closed at $39.65, a 11.31% gain. The rally coincided with a broader nuclear energy sector upswing, as NuScale Power also posted a double-digit gain. The House vote, which aimed to address the energy burden of large data centers, is seen as a potential catalyst for nuclear power companies like Oklo and NuScale, which provide small modular reactor technology. The broader market also showed signs of recovery, with the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 snapping recent declines.
What The Data Shows
Oklo traded 14.0 million shares during the session, nearly 30% above its 3-month average volume. The stock has fallen 12.6% over the last 8 sessions, from $44.39 to $38.78, but Thursday’s move brought it closer to its 52-week high of $193.84. The company remains unprofitable, with a trailing twelve-month EPS of -0.93, and carries a market cap of $6.7 billion. Insider transactions in the last 90 days include 17 sales totaling $42.7 million, with the most recent filing on September 15. The stock has printed 43 fresh 52-week highs and 3 lows on September 17.
What To Watch
Oklo is not scheduled to report earnings in the near term. Investors should monitor the breadth of coverage and sentiment shifts, particularly as the stock remains volatile and faces a challenging earnings and valuation backdrop.
