An Undervalued Engineering Company With Strong Ties to Energy Markets
Just under a year ago, I wrote a piece here suggesting that readers look at buying stock in NuScale (SMR), a young company that designs and builds small modular reactors (SMRs). SMRs are a reputedly safer, more manageable type of nuclear reactor, and my argument then was that a shift in where government green energy money was being targeted, towards nuclear power and away from wind and solar, would be good news for NuScale. That has panned out, …
