NuScale Power stock hits 52-week low after Barclays downgrade to underweight.

NuScale Power's stock dropped 7% to a new 52-week low following Barclays' downgrade from Equal Weight to Underweight and a cut in price target. The downgrade reflects concerns over NuScale's delay in securing its first binding reactor order, a critical step for revenue generation. Unlike peers Oklo and Centrus Energy, NuScale relies heavily on licensing its small modular reactor designs, and its regulatory certification has yet to translate into firm customer commitments. Investors will watch for updates on a potential power purchase agreement with the Tennessee Valley Authority and upcoming earnings as key catalysts.

NuScale Power shares are down 7.56% on Pluang, trading at USD 5.26 as of Oct 20, 2026 20:01 WIB, reflecting active selling with 60% of orders to sell. Oklo and Centrus Energy also fell, with Oklo down 3.74% at USD 26.22 and Centrus Energy down 3.03% at USD 106.78. This data shows a broader pullback in the small modular reactor and energy sectors on Pluang.
