Movement Alert|Oklo Inc. Falls 5.23% in Regular Trading, Barclays Cuts Target Price as Prior Rally Continues to Unwind

Market Focus07-28

On July 28, Oklo Inc. fell 5.23% in regular trading, trading at approximately $38.03 per share, with turnover of $112 million. The decline reflects continued profit-taking pressure compounded by a fresh analyst downgrade.

On the news front, Barclays recently lowered its price target on Oklo from $82 to $76 while maintaining an Overweight rating. The stock had rallied sharply in mid-July — gaining over 13% between July 21-22 — driven by DOE safety approvals and participation in a Trump administration-led next-generation nuclear power initiative aimed at powering AI data centers. However, the stock has since given back those gains, falling 5.7% on July 24 as the DOE startup authorization was officially confirmed, triggering a classic buy-the-rumor-sell-the-news pattern that has persisted into the current session.

Within the Electric Utilities sector, the overall performance remained stable, with NextEra up 2.38%, PG&E Corp up 4.15%, and Duke up 2.78%, while Oklo's decline significantly diverged from the broader group.

Oklo Inc. develops advanced fission power plants and plans to commercialize its liquid-metal fast reactor technology through its Aurora powerhouse product line, targeting up to 15 megawatts of power generation using recycled nuclear fuel.
