Why These Energy Stocks are Gaining This Week

In this article, we are going to discuss the energy stocks that are gaining this week.

The American nuclear energy sector has been under the spotlight recently after President Trump signed an executive order to quadruple the country’s nuclear energy capacity by 2050. The White House wants to ensure America’s energy security in the wake of a record rise in the demand of electricity, primarily due to the AI boom and its accompanying data centers. The strategic move also aims to increase the domestic mining and enrichment of nuclear fuel and reduce reliance on imports from China and Russia, given the current geopolitical landscape.

The industry received a boost again this week after it was revealed that Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta Platforms has signed a 20-year agreement to buy nuclear power from Constellation Energy, in the Facebook owner’s first such deal with a nuclear power plant. The contract is Meta’s largest power deal to date and marks the latest move by big tech to meet the soaring electricity demand from AI, with Microsoft, Google, and Amazon also turning to nuclear power as an energy source.
