On June 3, X-Energy fell 5.96% in regular trading, trading at $26.185/share, with trading volume of approximately $20.04 million. The decline was driven by industry-wide pressure as experts raised concerns over the maturity of small modular reactor (SMR) technology.

On the news front, while the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is accelerating approval processes for SMR designs — aiming to boost U.S. nuclear capacity from approximately 100 gigawatts to 400 gigawatts by 2050 — industry experts cautioned that SMR technology remains immature and carries risks, recommending focus on safer, lower-cost alternative energy sources. This dispute dampened market sentiment across the nuclear energy sector.

Within the Heavy Electrical Equipment sector, multiple peers experienced significant declines. NuScale Power fell 8.97%, NANO Nuclear Energy dropped 10.76%, and Bloom Energy declined 3.98%, while GE Vernova edged up 0.45% and Forgent Power Solutions gained 2.83%. The broad sector sell-off reflects investor uncertainty surrounding the commercial viability timeline for advanced nuclear technologies.
