Oklo Stock Slides Following Tuesday's Surge: What's Going On?
May 26, 2025 2:50 AM

Shares of Oklo Inc ( OKLO ) fell 7.92% to $26.39 Wednesday morning, following a sharp rally Tuesday. Tuesday's spike came after Axios reported that the White House is preparing executive orders to accelerate the deployment of nuclear reactors—an initiative that could benefit advanced nuclear developers like Oklo ( OKLO ).

What To Know: The report suggested the Biden administration aims to leverage the Departments of Defense (DOD) and Energy (DOE) to bypass traditional Nuclear Regulatory Commission licensing bottlenecks.

Sources indicated the DOD could play a key role due to its energy demands and ability to absorb regulatory risks, potentially fast-tracking small reactor deployment.

Oklo ( OKLO ), recently public via a SPAC backed by OpenAI's Sam Altman, specializes in compact nuclear reactors designed for use in data centers, defense sites and remote locations. The company is increasingly seen as a potential player in powering energy-hungry AI infrastructure.

Despite Wednesday’s pullback, the broader policy momentum could continue to drive interest in nuclear-themed stocks like Oklo ( OKLO ).
