Last October, shares of NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) hit an all-time high of about $57. Today, shares trade at just under $10, representing a massive 84% decline.
What happened? Nothing that an 84% decline might suggest: no bankruptcy, no regulatory complications, no nuclear accidents (thank goodness). The drawback was more likely a sign that investors had lost patience with an overvalued nuclear stock with no reactor operating in the real world, and no firm first customer.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Funny thing is, NuScale actually looks better positioned as a company than it did at the height of its AI-nuclear boom. Investors looking for a value may want to reconsider NuScale, especially with a multi-state project moving closer to a signed deal.
If you're new to NuScale, here's a quick catch-up: The company wants to build and sell small modular reactors (SMRs), which are essentially compact nuclear power plants designed to generate carbon-free electricity from a much smaller physical footprint than your traditional nuclear facility. It is currently the only company in the U.S. with an NRC-approved SMR design, but it has not yet built a reactor for a customer.
