Nuclear energy companies Oklo and NuScale Power have faced significant stock declines driven by macroeconomic factors and financing concerns. 

Oklo initiated a $1 billion at-the-market equity program to raise capital, a move that contributed to shareholder dilution. Since its public debut via a SPAC merger in May 2024, the company’s outstanding shares increased by approximately 58%, leaving early shareholders with roughly 37% less ownership.

Both Oklo and NuScale Power saw shares drop significantly following a rise in 10-year Treasury yields to 5.26% after a higher-than-expected inflation report. Oklo shares hit a 52-week low, with analysts projecting a potential need for $6.5 billion in additional cash before 2030. NuScale Power also reached its lowest closing price since May 2024, despite maintaining a cash position of $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2026.
