Nuclear Power Is Having Its Moment (And Most Investors Are Missing It)
23 days ago
good article but fails to name the utility - We’ve been tracking one particular utility that checks every box mentioned here: operates nuclear reactors providing 24/7 baseload power, controls transmission infrastructure in the nation’s largest data center market, and is moving forward with SMR development.

Yet the stock still trades well below its 2022 peak, despite the fundamental picture being dramatically stronger.

That disconnect won’t last forever.

Invest In U.S. Exceptionalism

Hello Alexa, some further thoughts on your thoughts. The US and some other countries such as Britain have become seriously out of balance as far as worker rights are concerned. Unions once became too strong but after they weakened management again proved that unions were necessary to balance greed at the expense of their workers. CEO pay has skyrocketed 1,460% since 1978: CEOs were paid...The management pay multiple compared to average employees has grown significantly, with the CEO-to-worker pay ratio increasing from around 21:1 in 1965 to 643:1 in 2023. That must change drastically if the middle classes are to make countries truly prosper again. In my home country, Switzerland, an unwritten pact was made between the Federal government and employers that prevented the growth of union power provided companies looked after their employees properly. That has worked for many years and become part of the culture. Many companies are niche family owned and/or managed and employees have skills that keep the companies world leaders in their niche so they are valued. The result is high pay with among the highest standards of living in the world. High pay is partly to blame for high inflation by the Fed and many central banks. Swiss inflation is currently 0% and so is the Swiss National Bank's base rate! Bye. James

Hello Angry Old Lady, politics in most western countries have become so unbelievable that is hard to believe they could be so unbelievable! The main exception is Switzerland where the people are the highest political authority. James
