In the decade after the 2011 Fukushima disaster, many countries throttled or paused their nuclear projects. As a result, many nuclear stocks fizzled out as investors focused on other types of clean energy -- such as solar, wind, and hydro power.
But over the past three years, some of those nuclear stocks recovered and hit new highs. One of the major catalysts was the rapid growth of the power-hungry cloud , data center, and artificial intelligence ( AI ) markets, which drove more companies to restart their nuclear projects. Another major tailwind has been the development of smaller, safer, and more power-efficient reactors.
