Oklo’s stock (NYSE:OKLO) surged nearly 30% after winning a contract to build a small nuclear reactor for the U.S. Air Force. However, the excitement was tempered by the announcement of a $400 million stock sale, leading to some volatility in after-hours trading. This showcases the high-risk, high-reward nature of investing in Oklo.

Oklo aims to revolutionize energy by replacing diesel generators with clean nuclear power. While the government’s trust in their technology is a positive sign, previous regulatory setbacks and the recent stock dilution have raised caution among investors. The company’s next steps include reapplying for NRC approval and wisely utilizing the raised funds.
