Should You Buy NuScale at $6 After the Google Rally? Here's the Next Catalyst That Could Send It Higher.

NuScale Power stock has plunged over 90% from its $57 peak despite growing demand for nuclear energy in data centers. The company's outlook could be transformed by a potential binding deal with the Tennessee Valley Authority for up to 6 GW of power deployment, which would require up to 72 NuScale Power Modules. Until such a firm commitment materializes, NuScale remains a risky, story-driven stock with significant downside risk.

Why Quanta Services Stock Flew Higher on Friday

Quanta Services stock rose 3% on Friday after Citigroup analysts identified it as one of four construction stocks that historically outperform the S&P 500 by ~2% in the 10 days following major storms. The analysts cited Hurricane Isaias as a potential catalyst. However, the article cautions that investors should focus on Quanta's broader business fundamentals, particularly its $50+ billion project backlog driven by AI data center build-outs and power grid work, rather than relying solely on post-storm reconstruction opportunities.

Why NuScale Power Stock Fell 29% in the First Half of 2026

NuScale Power's stock crashed 29% in H1 2026 as investors faced reality: the company hasn't built a reactor yet and won't deliver its first module until 2031. Key setbacks included a $507.4 million milestone payment to commercialization partner ENTRA1 Energy, a $690 million operating loss in Q4 2025, plummeting Q1 2026 revenue, and major shareholder Fluor's complete exit. Despite $890 million in cash reserves, mounting losses and lack of firm revenue-generating contracts have made the stock highly speculative.

In 10 Years, Will You Wish You'd Bought NuScale Power Stock Right Now?

NuScale Power, the only U.S.-approved small modular reactor (SMR) designer, is positioned to benefit from surging AI data center energy demand and a major 6 GW deployment agreement with ENTRA1 Energy and the Tennessee Valley Authority.

Fluor, a leading engineering and construction firm, has seen its stock decline recently after Q1 2026 earnings. However, the company benefits from strong tailwinds in data center and energy infrastructure markets, a $3.2 billion cash position from selling its NuScale Power stake, and a $25.7 billion project backlog. With analyst estimates showing 15% annual earnings growth and a reasonable 15.5x P/E valuation, the stock decline may present a buying opportunity despite cyclical risks.

Where Will NuScale Power (SMR) Stock Be in 5 Years?

NuScale Power, a small modular reactor (SMR) developer, has seen its stock plunge 80% from its all-time high of $53.43 to $12. While the company holds exclusive NRC design approvals and has secured major contracts with Romania and the TVA, commercial deployment is delayed until 2030-2034. Near-term revenue will come from engineering and consulting work rather than reactor sales. Analysts project revenue could quadruple by 2028, but the stock remains unprofitable with limited near-term upside due to insider selling and execution risks.
