While analysts at BofA see justified optimism for nuclear energy over the long run, they're worried that valuations for Oklo and NuScale shares “leave little room for error.”
OKLO's valuation now tops peers despite no revenue until at least 2027, raising doubts over how long investor patience can last.
OpenAI just hit a major milestone. According to CFO Sarah Friar, in July, the company notched its first billion-dollar revenue month.
Dimple Gosai, Bank of America clean energy analyst, joins 'Power Lunch' to discuss why Oklo's gains are likely not done, the SMR technology and much more.
Oklo (OKLO) shares surged Tuesday, as Bank of America analysts initiated coverage with a "buy" rating, citing the nuclear energy startup's edge “powering the AI era."
Nuclear energy is gaining interest due to data center demand and policy support, but current stock valuations, especially that of Oklo Inc., are in bubble territory. While nuclear will grow its share, energy markets are cyclical and no single source remains dominant; macro factors will shift the balance over time. SMRs offer promise for faster, safer nuclear deployment, but high upfront costs and regulatory hurdles limit near-term financial upside.
OKLO's bold nuclear vision contrasts with CEG's proven scale, revenue strength, and long-term deals with tech giants.
Oklo (NYSE: OKLO), the nuclear startup, has increased by 265% in 2025, significantly surpassing the S&P 500's 10% rise. This growth is attributed to a combination of factors: federal project approvals, the increasing energy needs of AI and data infrastructure, strategic alliances, and a regulatory environment that is becoming more favorable to nuclear energy.
OKLO advances its first Aurora reactor toward a 2028 launch, targeting 75 MW output and 10 years of operation without refueling.

The release was good, chock full of juicy news to keep investors interested, but no concrete changes or improvements to the revenue timeline.
Oklo (NYSE:OKLO) provided investors an update on its strategic progress along with its Q2 financial results, targeting commercial operations between 2027 and early 2028. The pre-revenue nuclear energy company reported a net loss of $28 million for the quarter.
