Market context

Why it moved

NuScale Power (SMR) edged higher amid renewed investor optimism surrounding growing demand for small modular reactors driven by AI data center energy needs, as highlighted by Valar Atomics' $6 billion valuation and its partnership with NVIDIA to power data centers with nuclear energy, reinforcing the broader nuclear sector tailwind.

What is happening

Recent company-specific developments and publisher coverage.

July 18, 2026NuScale Power edged up modestly, closing near its 52-week low amid a broader selloff in AI-linked nuclear stocks. Peers Oklo, X-Energy, Nano Nuclear, and Uranium Energy each tumbled 8–9% Thursday as investors rotated out of high-valuation advanced reactor names, demanding proof of commercial delivery over long-term promise. Truist recently initiated coverage of NuScale with a 'Hold' rating, while Citi maintains a 'Sell' with a $7 target—near current levels—citing an enterprise value-to-sales multiple of over 91x and revenue that collapsed 96% YoY in Q1 2026. Retail sentiment has turned 'bearish' on Stocktwits, reflecting growing skepticism around the AI-power narrative.

0.9162

July 17, 2026NuScale Power tumbled sharply, closing near its 52-week low as bearish analyst sentiment and persistent fundamental concerns weighed on shares. The stock has now hit new multi-year lows this month, with a prior 52-week low of $8.55 recorded on July 9th before today's session pushed even lower to $7.52. Analyst headwinds remain stiff — Citi maintains a 'Sell' rating with a $7 price target, and HSBC holds a 'Hold' with a $13 target, citing significant execution and financial risk around NuScale's SMR technology deployment, with commercial rollout not expected until ~2030. The company's Q1 revenue plunged 96% year-over-year to just $0.57 million, adding to investor unease despite retail traders remaining broadly bullish on the nuclear-AI energy theme.

-8.6722

July 16, 2026NuScale Power shares fell nearly 3%, touching levels near its 52-week low, as persistent investor concerns over the company's execution timeline, weak financials, and analyst caution continued to weigh on sentiment. The stock has been under pressure since hitting a 52-week low earlier this month on July 9, with institutional investors reducing exposure — Pictet Asset Management cut its stake by 86.9% in Q1 — and Fluor Corp. selling 13.5 million shares in April. NuScale's Q1 revenue plunged 96% year-over-year to just $0.57M, well below estimates, while Citi maintains a Sell rating with a $7 price target, even as retail sentiment remains broadly bullish on the long-term nuclear/AI power demand thesis.

-2.9651

July 15, 2026NuScale Power shares rose nearly 3% to close at $8.60, hovering just above their 52-week low, as broader markets found relief from a cooler-than-expected June CPI report that boosted risk sentiment. The stock remains under significant pressure from weak fundamentals — Q1 revenue collapsed 96% year-over-year to just $0.57 million — and persistent institutional selling, including a 13.5 million-share disposal by major stakeholder Fluor Corp. in April. Analyst consensus sits at Hold with a $15.92 average price target, reflecting skepticism around NuScale's long-term execution risk ahead of expected commercial SMR deployments around 2030.

2.994

July 14, 2026NuScale Power tumbled over 7% to close near its 52-week low, underperforming a broadly weaker market as geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran rattled equities. The selloff compounds a difficult stretch for the SMR developer, which reported Q1 revenue of just $0.57 million — a 96% year-over-year decline — and faces a cautious analyst consensus of 'Hold' with a $15.92 average price target. A recent $159M share sale by major insider Fluor Corp and skepticism around NuScale's ability to secure commercial contracts have weighed on investor confidence, with the stock now trading far below its 52-week high of $57.42.

-7.5221

July 11, 2026NuScale Power closed essentially unchanged, hovering near its 52-week low of $8.55 as bearish sentiment persists around the company's weak fundamentals and uncertain commercialization timeline. A Seeking Alpha analysis published today questions whether NuScale can meet its 2026 guidance, citing a lack of commercial contracts and notable insider selling — including Fluor Corp's disposal of 13.5 million shares in April. Meanwhile, Swedbank AB increased its stake by 36.3% in Q1, offering a modest institutional counterpoint, though the analyst consensus remains a 'Hold' with a $15.92 average price target — well above current levels but tempered by Citi's $7 sell-rated target.
July 10, 2026NuScale Power shares recovered from a fresh 52-week low of $8.55 touched earlier in the session, closing up roughly 3% as markets stabilized following Wednesday's sharp sell-off tied to renewed U.S.-Iran tensions. The rebound came despite persistent headwinds: the stock has fallen over 20% year-to-date and trades near multi-year lows amid investor skepticism over its commercialization timeline, a 96% Q1 revenue plunge, and a Citi 'Sell' rating with a $7 price target. Retail traders remain broadly bullish on NuScale's long-term position as the only NRC-approved SMR design, but Wall Street's median price target of $14 reflects deep uncertainty around execution risk and dilution concerns from its $1B at-the-market equity offering.

3.0822

July 9, 2026NuScale Power declined amid a broad risk-off session triggered by the collapse of the U.S.-Iran ceasefire framework, which sent oil prices surging over 5% and pressured equities broadly. The stock touched its 52-week low intraday at $8.55, compounding a 72.8% decline over the past year, as investors remain wary of the company's extended commercialization timeline and deeply negative revenue trajectory — Q1 revenue came in at just $0.57M, down 96% year-over-year. Analyst price targets range widely from $7 (Citigroup) to $25 (Canaccord), with a median near $14, while NuScale retains its distinction as the only NRC-approved small modular reactor design, a key long-term bull case amid AI-driven power demand growth.
