Oklo, NuScale Power, and BWX Technologies are the three Nuclear stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Nuclear stocks are shares of companies whose core business is tied to the nuclear energy industry — for example uranium miners and processors, reactor and component manufacturers, utilities that operate nuclear power plants, and firms providing nuclear services or technology. Investors treat them as a distinct, policy-sensitive sector because returns depend heavily on long-term energy policy, uranium prices, regulatory and safety risks, and large capital expenditures, which can produce higher volatility than some other utility stocks. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Nuclear stocks within the last several days.
