Ok, yeah I guess I must have seen that one before but kinda forgot about it, thanks. Very similar to ICLN which I don't own either. Just wish an ETF came out that was a thematic like "Future Energy" - then it could capture wind, solar, nuclear, and all the industrials associated with sort of the next wave of energy infrastructure - a bit late anyway - but something like the best of ICLN, FRNW, IFRA and NLR, which obviously would try to tie into the AI datacenter tailwind.
Any thoughts on NLR and Joby?
I invested in NLR etf and also buy stock in the company I work for. Just a hunch, but I believe nuclear will be fundamental to the AI and quantum computing industries especially if the US is going to be competitive regardless of politics.
NLR or URA. That's about all you need. GRID if you want something for energy outside of the nuclear-specific niche.
Big nuclear fan, I gave up finding the right one after a while and did NLR URA URNM three way split. Been working pretty well so far
NLR scared the shit out of me lol
If we're talking about VOO and other 0.0-something percentage ETFs, sure. The likes of SMH, USD, GRID, NLR, SHLD, etc., which are quite common, charge decent fees.
27% - mostly driven by Palantir, Nvidia, and NLR.
I don’t know. Everyone is saying it’s a bad strategy, but I tried this strategy recently and it worked out really well. I bought SLV, NBIS, RKLB, PL, ASTS earlier this week and just sold half my positions on them… made a few thousand. The idea was to choose stocks that are either running up (SLV) or are sort of “meme” stocks (in the sense that they are mentioned frequently on here). I also bought positions on GME, RYCEY and NLR and they are all doing decently well, floating about 3% above the price I bought them for. Is it just luck?
NLR is nice and much less volume risk but I like URANs exposure to more grid infrastructure plays
Thanks, they're shares so it will be ok eventually NBIS IREN ORCL NBIS NVDA NLR All i have is some whack tequila that my wife uses for margs
2026 strategy: all in on tech/AI + hedge with crypto. I’m in my growth phase, have a longer timeline but behind on investments so I’m intentionally not diversifying yet. 401k and taxable brokerage will be equal priority and I plan to max out backdoor roth IRA ultimately contributing 30% of gross income including employer match. 401k will be all S&P. Taxable & Roth IRA will be QQQM (45%), SMH & SMHX (40%), NLR/URA (5%), BTC/ETH/XRP (10%). I’m preparing myself for a volatile year.
Probably nothing new. Buying dips on core positions. Good chunk of a gold ETF. Probably more NLR and IBIT if they dip further. Steady contributions to VOO and SCHD. Past few years have been mostly amazing on individual stocks but trying to get more conservative with my investments.
CNVS: $50M market cap and, presumably, releasing Terrifier 4 next year which could gross $100M. Also have some other movies coming out soon like silent night deadly night, return to silent hill, and air bud. FUBO: Seems like an easy one given Disney stake. NLR: Already up big recently - but I like anything similar to this. MP: Seems pretty well protected from failure with long term contracts galore. In the vein of - get in when you can and don't sell for at least 5 years.
Natural gas short term: Exxon or UNG Nuclear long term: ETFs like URAN or NLR
Here's another old man IRA gift. Again, you're not gonna get rich quick on this. Just buy, add, and keep. Nuclear materials ETF...NLR. Constant, consistent (with annual dividend.) You're welcome
Just buy sandp and I satisfy my will to gamble by allocating 5-7% of my portfolio to volitile ETFs/stocks. NLR uranium has done great for me the past 2 years up like 85%
I’d continue to DCA into my usual ETFS and crypto (QQQM 50%, SMHX 35%, URA/NLR 5%, BTC/ETH/XRP 10%). For context, I’m less than 1 year into investing with a 20-30 year horizon so not a lot of money right now. Very heavily weighted in tech & AI so all the bubble talk is making my tummy bubble, but I have an emergency fund so I am sticking with the plan and mentally preparing for up to 80% drop like 2008. If there’s a crash, I’ll buy more of the same. Not planning on diversifying until portfolio value is ~$100k (which is a fairly arbitrary number based on 1 years’ expenses/what I consider a lot of money). Who knows what the future holds, but I also plan on never selling anything ever — if all goes to hell and I need more money than I have access to otherwise, I’ll take up to 25% of portfolio value out on margin loan. Fingers crossed.
NLR CRWV NBIS ORCL (I too was skeptical of OpenAI deal but this is overblown) IREN LITE
I would put 50% in a high yield savings account so its totally safe from market conditions and maybe 100K into gold or crypto and the remaining 100K into ETFs(exchange traded funds) like UEC, NLR, UUUU OR VOOG. There may be a market crash coming though its been on a crazy bull run since March so be careful
75% VOO 10% NLR 10% FSELX 5% cash Off my noggin lol, I'm sure there are better but this would slap.
Yes, nuclear will grow in the near future, so my money is on NLR, CEG and CCJ. I like the idea of small-medium reactors but unfortunately there is currently no company have a working reactor and it is rumored that they are not much cheaper than regular nuclear reactors at the moment.
NLR is a great one at the moment.
I created a portfolio that’s strictly energy based on the dub Creators app (copy trading), and it’s up ~67% since its inception in April of this year. The big gains the last few months have came from Nuclear related stocks (OKLO, SMR, CEG, NLR). Though they’re volatile, they’ve been a great move recently. The portfolio is called #ENRGMIX if you’d like to check it out!
Agreed. I’ve traded small positions in most of them to try and stay up to date. I know it’s not going to be a 10-bagger but decided just to hold some NLR instead of trying to pick one.
Next week I’m dumping half the port and reloading on year end 2026 GOOG, NVDA, NBIS, SMR, and UNH calls. Maybe some SOXL or NLR calls if I’m feeling spicey
SMH, NLR would be my recommendation but not what I would do. Instead, I look at top 10 holdings of ETFs i believe in and only buy their top 3-7 holdings. My return year to date is triple S&P. I'm looking at drone stocks and nuclear power lately.
I been DCA in NLR the uranium ETF and am up 80% since beginning mid 2024
Bro i can assure you that you are in fact retarded, even somebody with downs can male money in a bull market. Cash out bro and put the Money into safer investments like UEC, SMR, NLR or SOXL if you cant stop doing leverage plays. Youre strategy of extreme leverage will get you destroyed if we go into a correction, sell bro before you lose it all
Youre taking descriptive statistics and making inferences you ought not to. On average, people cant beat the indexes for 10 years. How strong is that evidence? Indexes have only existed for like 50 years. Is that enough time to say its hopeless to try and beat them? Also, just because most people havent beaten them in the past 50 yrs, is this past 50 years a good sample of our entire economic history? In short, we try because alot of us are successful. And although index and chill is a great philosophy that can really optimize passive investing for alot of people, the boggleheads have become a little culty and you shouldn’t mistake their arrogance for confidence or intelligence. I’ve been destroying the S&P 500 for 3 years now. Even if that doesn’t last, this was 3 of 6 total years that I will be eligible to contribute to a roth IRA without any backdoor maneuvering. Thats $20,500 contributed. If I had DCAd with $VOO every month the past 3 years, I would have gained 37%, for a total value of $29000. Not bad at all. Im sitting at $80K in my roth right now. I didn’t even do anything that crazy. I bought NVDA, AMD, MU, SOFI, NLR in roughly equal parts, and instead of DCA, I made lump sum purchases only after 4 consecutive red days.
I started buying stocks at 16 with around $400. I said buying stocks, not trading stocks on purpose. I’ve been steadily buying this entire time and I very rarely sell anything so I don’t call it trading stocks. I’m accumulating stocks. The game isn’t to buy and sell unless you have a ridiculous amount of money and a team of tax people to help you get your taxes right. The game isn’t to buy. Keep buying. Buy some more. Then maybe buy more. Then sit on it. Just sit and wait. Buy stable, profitable companies with great leadership or buy ETF’s. I tend to buy ETF’s that are broad and then occasionally I’ll buy something like NLR because it’s a good market coverage stock in an area of the business world that I see a ton of growth in for the foreseeable future. So in summary. Don’t day trade. That’s how people lose money. Buy stocks. Keep buying stocks. Then sit on it. Don’t pay attention to the doomsday people, don’t freak out when the market dips. Just keep buying and sitting on it. When you’ve been doing it for almost 30 years like me you’ll look at your account and be pleasantly surprised at how much you’ve accumulated.
If you ain’t holding NLR you ain’t gay
Guess I’ll stop talking shit about gold NBIS NLR UNG AMZN
Oh yes I forgot to do that - well it’s my first time investing in gold so I was just dipping my toes in the water. I read that central banks starting buying gold at an accelerated pace in November 2024 so I’m starting w 1%, which is about 15k so I’m happy with that for now. I also started some investments in bitcoin (BTC - 10k), silver (SLV - 5k), uranium (NLR - 5k) and ethirium (ETH - 5k). I’m happy with these initial investments but one never knows if there’s a bubble. I plan to add to these positions at similar dollar values in January of every year, for the next 5 years, and then I’ll retire and my portfolio should be around 10% alternative assets. That’s my plan anyway. Thanks for asking!
Been holding the NLR etf because it's so hard to predict the next one to pop
NLR for etf UUUU UEC OKLO NNE
Oh fuck yeah I'll throw in on that, wonder if it will get added to NLR
I like the etfs ILIT NLR, these companies are like moles randomly popping off. Got tired of trying to catch every rocket after takeoff
$NLR, $VOO, $VTI, high yield savings… diversification.
I do the same, but with longer expiration calls (9-15 months). What else are you betting on with this strategy? I have; Intel, crispr, NLR, Qualcomm
I have all these ETFs and they've performed very well for me. Vaneck GMET (copper, lithium, rare earths, etc.), Vaneck NLR (nuclear infrastructure and uranium mines) Vaneck GDX (gold mines).
“For some reason” lol my friend sit back, read, educate yourself, come up with a plan, and stick to it. Personally I’ve been moving towards ~40% total world equities (VT), 15% gold (GLDM), 15% bitcoin, and the rest split between some single plays like NLR (nuclear ETF), RDDT, UNH, and slowly selling down Nvidia I’ve held onto for quite a while
SMR UEC & NLR are my picks, I also think NANO and OKLO are good pics
I am working my way towards 50% in VT, 10% in GLDM / physical gold / 10% IBIT, remaining 30% growth / speculative like NLR (nuclear ETF), Reddit, Google, UNH, etc
I’m in my early 30s. My investment horizon is 30 years. NLR (Van Eck nuclear ETF) is my go to these days and my tranches have done great (although everyone is Buffet in a bull market (bubble)
CCJ too. But NLR is a good play for the whole sector.
If it’s years, it’s going to be ETFs for me. QQQ, VTI, QTUM, SMH, NLR, GLD, VGT
Just found $NLR etf What the fuck where has this been all my life?
In going to load on NLR VanEck Uranium and nuclear etf this week
I didnt know about OKLO until recwntly but I scored huge om SMR, UEC and NLR. Nano also has a lot of potential
NLR with that Big D performance
Yes, stick to **ETFs**! That's a lesson I've taught myself over and over through the years, but this time I really mean it! I JUST got done typing this up to my sister, 2 years younger than my 62, so I'll paste it here in case it's of any use to you. Best of luck to you! x-x-x-x Divide your money into 5 ETFs equally. ETFs are safer than individual stocks. So each position will get a 20% allocation. **Gold** will have a permanent slot, using the ETFs **GLD** or **IAU**. **US Treasury bonds** will have a permanent slot. **TLT** for that (which are 20-year Treasuries). Then I'll choose 3 others based on recent 3 to 6-month performance. Right now tonight, those might be: **MCHI, ARKW, NLR** Check them after a month, run a new scan, and replace any that are underperforming. To get you a little bit excited about that, here's a chart of **NLR** over the past 6 months: [https://imgur.com/a/pDWXDzD](https://imgur.com/a/pDWXDzD) 64% in 6 months. And sure, it might not do that for the *next* 6 months, but it should keep going up for a while. And when it *stops* going up, you find something else that *is* going up. Here's a 3-month view of **GLD** and **TLT**: [https://imgur.com/a/n8tI3u0](https://imgur.com/a/n8tI3u0) They're in the mix not so much for their gains, but for a bit of protection, because they usually move the opposite way as the market, especially when the market moves down hard and fast.
NLR blessing me today 🫶
Generating power via nuclear will be the only option to keep up with power demands in the next 25+ years, if power demand continues to climb at the same rate. I have about 4% of my portfolio in the NLR ETF.
I've been happy with NLR. It includes nuclear power and uranium mining. Right under 2% of my investment portfolio. If I had the available cash I wouldn't mind having a bit more of it but not too much. This was an absolute "vibe" investment along with SMH so not gonna jump in too deep.
NLR is Uranium and Nuclear ETF.
any other entries you made recently? been thinking about buying into HOOD but wonder if i missed my chance. SOFI , NLR have been pretty good to me so far thinking about taking profits
Family asked this question during New Years. One of the choices I said I was scoping out was nuclear energy. I watched NUKZ and NLR through April, then pulled the trigger when everything was on sale. Both are up 45%+ since April. Thing is I knew this was a good play ahead of time... AI is takes a fuck ton of compute resources, what's a renewable way to power this? Only problem is I wish I had bought more early on lol.
NLR has a more broad basket than NUKZ and some of the others iirc.
NLR Is the one I wanted to do but it shot up like 20% the day I was going to do it and so I let it go - although like another guy said it went up another 11% so clearly I should have anyway... But I'm stubborn, I'll wait to see if we get a big drop for some reason otherwise keep letting it go and stick to my VTI/SOXL/GOOG
Yeah, this is my thought too. I have a bunch in NLR. When all of the AI players are buying nuclear plants, that’ll probably increase demand, lol.
I’m running with both NLR and NUKZ. There’s some overlap, but it’s not bad. The holdings in NUKZ was the difference. CEG and GEV are beasts. The other companies have decent upside to them as well such as OKLO. I see multiple winners in this space for years to come.
I’m invested in NLR which is a uranium and nuclear ETF. Been pleased with the results so far
And perhaps also VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF (NLR)
Great picks! If you're thinking long-term exposure to data center demand + next-gen nuclear, here’s a quick breakdown: CEG: Largest U.S. nuclear operator. Profitable, clean baseload, big-tech-friendly. One of the safest long-term bets. LEU: Only U.S.-owned uranium enricher, licensed for HALEU—fuel for next-gen reactors. Tiny float, but huge strategic relevance. NuScale (SMR): Regulatory first-mover, but execution has been shaky. Worth keeping an eye on, but very high risk. Nuclear ETFs: URNM, NLR, or NUKZ if you want broader exposure without picking individual winners. I cover this stuff weekly in my newsletter, Nuclear Update. The latest post is free if you're curious: https://nuclearupdate.com/p/nuclear-update-premium-june-28-2025-ec1d Let me know if you want more names.
Totally hear you—ETFs that actually lean into the future (instead of just reweighting the past) are hard to find. If you’re bullish on nuclear + energy-hungry tech like AI and quantum, you might like what we’re building at Nuclear Update. We just launched a premium newsletter focused on exactly this theme—tracking uranium miners, SMR developers, fuel cycle bottlenecks, and the nuclear-tech convergence. The big ETFs like URA and NLR miss a lot of up-and-coming names (including $OKLO), but our portfolio bridges that gap—with both ETF and stock picks tailored for the new energy era. If you’re curious, the first premium issue is free here: 👉 https://nuclearupdate.com/p/nuclear-update-premium-june-28-2025-ec1d Would love to hear what you’re looking at too—especially if you find any solid robotics or fusion plays.
PPA, EUAD, NLR are my plays for this in the short term. Long term? Same picks but add FIW to it
I think Nuclear stocks will take off...eventually. I have NLR, URA, and UNMN. I'm not recommending them...just what I have and will likely buy some others. They're volatile. All three were way up last year and then way down this year and have rebounded.
I honestly do not know.. I think nuclear.. with the new contracts of our government.. plus private power needs.. will be good going forward. I own NLR shares in my IRA and just bought weekly calls on CCJ after the big up and down in two days..
CCJ going nuclear ☢️… AI needs electricity… other countries need protection and build their own bombs.. going back to the Cold War Era..!?! NLR.. or CCJ.. will be high demand… U be worth more the AU… but PB will take it all very soon while taking control. No one is worried? First national guard decree in California? Lock down soon.. King 🥭
NLR…. Going Nuclear..☢️
I tossed a paycheck’s worth into NLR at around $89 and have been pleased. I’ll DCA more in over the next 10 years.
