- SummarySMR developers report large power pipelines, with Oklo reaching 18.1 GW and NuScale securing 6-7 GW. Cameco trades near $85 as nuclear generation gains strategic priority for data center electricity supply.
- CCJDirect directional exposure
Illustrative, not advice
- Crowded positioning may already reflect the move
- Counter-catalyst could neutralize the thesis before window closes
- CCJ closes below pre-catalyst level on rising volume
- Catalyst narrative is officially walked back or contradicted
- Cross-asset confirmation (rates / FX / vol) reverses direction
- CCJ price vs. pre-event level
- CCJ volume vs. 20-day average
