The ALPS Nautilus SMR, Nuclear & Technology ETF (SMRF), launched in February, has gained over 11% year-to-date despite missing early market action. This growth is supported by a booming small nuclear reactor market, expected to nearly double from $8.16 billion in 2026 to $17.37 billion by 2035, driven by demand for clean energy, technological advances, and government support.
