This Nuclear Stock Is Down 46%, and It's a Screaming Buy

Oklo (NYSE: OKLO), a nuclear energy company focused on powering AI data centers, has seen its stock drop 46% in 2026 and 75% below its 52-week high. Despite the decline, the article argues the company's long-term outlook remains intact. Oklo faces known challenges: no commercial track record, ongoing Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval, and reported losses. However, it has $2.5 billion in liquidity, a groundbreaking Aurora reactor design using liquid sodium cooling, and a fuel recycling program. The company recently cleared Department of Energy safety approval for its Groves Isotope Reactor in Texas. The author suggests bearish sentiment is creating a buying opportunity for long-term investors willing to tolerate volatility.
