In a boost for struggling sector, JPMorgan highlighted long-term, structural supply deficits for uranium.

Shares of NuScale Power (NYSE:SMR) are sliding in Friday morning trading, giving back the policy-driven advance nuclear developers posted a day earlier. NuScale Power stock is at $8.45, down 7% midday.

Global X Uranium ETF is rated Buy, driven by surging energy demand from AI and electrification trends. URA offers diversified exposure to uranium, with Cameco comprising over 20% and Sprott Physical Uranium Trust nearly 6%. Uranium's 92% capacity factor, low emissions, and scalability position it as a critical solution for future energy shortfalls.

Uranium equities have given back roughly a third of their value since last year's highs, even as hyperscaler power contracts, small modular reactor announcements, and utility load forecasts continue to point in one direction.

Oklo has recently achieved a crucial milestone in the development of small modular reactors for nuclear energy. The VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF holds about 4.4% of its assets in Oklo stock.

I rate the Global X Uranium ETF (URA) a BUY after its 18.9% correction, as stronger long-term contract pricing is set to support producer earnings. URA's recovery is likely to be led by established producers like Cameco, where improved contract prices are already becoming visible in realized earnings. The fund offers diversified exposure across uranium producers and the nuclear value chain, but carries heightened risk due to concentration and company-specific factors.
