Nano Nuclear Energy Stock Surges Amid U.S.-U.K. Nuclear Partnership

Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE) shares skyrocketed 19.8% as markets reacted to a $350 billion U.S.-U.K. collaboration on AI, quantum computing, and nuclear energy. While the announcement lacked specifics on Nano Nuclear's involvement, the broader sector rally lifted the micro-reactor developer.

The partnership earmarks $155 billion for American initiatives, with $5.3 million allocated to HALEU fuel supplies and 40 billion pounds for modular reactors. Notably absent was any direct mention of Nano Nuclear, though investor enthusiasm for alternative nuclear solutions propelled the stock upward.

X-Energy emerged as the clearest beneficiary, with its private sector backing and Amazon data center projects. The market's response suggests growing appetite for nuclear innovators, even those not explicitly named in government agreements.
