Seeing nuclear names like Oklo rip this week on the AI power demand + clean baseload narrative getting hot again. From a trading POV, this feels like classic momentum + liquidity chasing rather than anything new fundamentally. Once the theme catches, these low-float/high-beta names tend to overshoot hard in both directions. I’m treating it purely as a momentum trade right now not conviction holding. Watching volume on pullbacks and whether bids keep stepping in. Curious if others are riding the trend or waiting for exhaustion.
