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.
I bought NLR back in January when Trump was discussing nuclear. It's been a good move so far!
SHLD, PPA, NLR, XAR, RING, EPR, EWG A mixed bag of decent performers for me this year.
I work in natural gas sales and trading for an energy company, and I think it’s important to be realistic about which nuclear companies will actually become major players. OKLO is still highly speculative and is getting attention largely due to its ties to the current energy secretary, but it has no revenue yet and is more of a concept-stage company. You’re also overlooking two key players: Rolls-Royce (RYCEY) and GE Vernova (GEV). Both are heavily invested in SMR development and have real industrial backing. SMRs, in particular, could be critical for powering things like data centers, which need scalable, low-emission energy solutions. So yes, I agree nuclear ETFs like URNM and NLR could benefit long-term, especially if this policy support continues but picking companies with actual infrastructure and momentum is crucial.
Fundamentals don’t matter with speculation; OKLO effectively a sheet of paper IONQ has more brick and mortar Quantum supremacy likely to be established by IBM in the United States, Honeywell throughout the world in particular Saudi Arabia, Microsoft in the US and international, and let’s not forget Google For now, algorithms are gonna pump quantum, and the application as it relates to bitcoin is appealing. Ultimately, if you’re thinking about what’s likely going to be stable, you cannot beat the index. NLR gives you exposure to many companies that are highly important right now to data centers and are more likely to have tangible revenue. Ultimately it’s up to you and what your risk is.
And 10 NLR if you really have fomo about nuclear energy
Done deal Fri May 23, by Presidential Executive Order. Fast track on regulatory approvals. OKLO CEO wasn't the WH during the signing. I also have OKLO and SMR. I bought in Dec just before they took off, then got a good average down to 14 on SMR, 22 on OKLO during the early April dip. Also have LEU and the nuclear ETF, NLR. There's not enough shares for the demand. Both OKLO and SMR are between 100-150 million shares area. Demand by institutions can only go up from here. They will continue to heavily accumulate in 2025, imho, and the real upside fun begins on the construction contract announcements. Enjoy watching the stock splits!
What would you recommend for nuclear energy? I have a decent amount of NLR but that's mostly because I'm not familiar with the names in the sector.
It's actually refreshing to see you asking ***before*** you buy, lol. So many people here ask for advice after they've invested thousands of dollars. Basic Guidelines for Starting: 1) Stick to mostly ETFs that track a broad market. 2) If you really want to buy some individual stocks, don't let them account for any more than 15% of your portfolio, and don't let any one holding be more than 5%. This should minimize downside risk. I'd say this is true for ETFs of speculative up-and-coming industries as well... (ETFs focused around Crypto/Flying Vehicles/Quantum Computing/Nuclear Energy, etc...) 3) Dividends aren't some magic bullet that will earn you more money. Growth and total price appreciation is the most important thing, especially if you are at least 10 years from retirement. If you aren't in a tax-advantaged account, then you will have to pay taxes on those dividends anyway, further reducing gains. 4) It is probably a good idea to get some international exposure. The US has outperformed in recent years, but that will not always be the case. 5) Before buying any ETF, I usually look at the top 10 holdings, and how much of the overall ETF they make up. I also read the fund description to see what it is trying to accomplish. I also look to see if the fund overlaps with one of my other holdings. As an example: VTI's description says it invests in the entire US market, including small, medium, and large cap stocks. VOO's description mentions it is only investing in the 500 largest stocks by market cap. VTI and VOO both have the same top 10 holdings. The top 10 in VOO make up 33.6% of the total ETF. The top 10 in VTI make up 29.2% of the total ETF. The funds have an overlap 88% by weight. Both funds are dominated by tech companies. With that I might decide to buy VTI because I want some exposure to those smaller companies. My starting portfolio might look something like this: 60% VTI (Total US Market) 30% VXUS (Total International Market) 5% NVDA (Company I have a strong belief in) 2% IBIT (Bitcoin Trust) 3% NLR (ETF Focused around Nuclear Energy) That portfolio has 90% of holdings in broad markets that covers the entire world, but I have a couple of more specialized picks based on my beliefs about the future. It is just an example, but hopefully it helps.
My Roth IRA is pretty risky. But with everything down I feel like buying safe stuff isn't going to pan out on the way back up. Topped up on QQQM during the bloodbath on Friday. Suggestions? IF things go down more what should I add? QQQM: 60% FZROX: 10% SMH: 10% FNILX: 9% SOXQ: 5% NLR: 5% NVDA: 1%
ETFs are fine. KWEB is the one I like. Also in XPEV, BABA, and JD. I’m in gold for because it doesn’t cycle with the NASDAQ/SPY. Bitcoin might as well be SPY for all the difference it gives you from the general tech side of the stock market (which is at all time highs). That is, Bitcoin tracks with tech stocks and gold doesn’t. I’m in gold because I think Bitcoin will crater again soon, and I don’t imagine gold will do more than pull back a couple hundred dollars an ounce for a bit this summer. Whether I try to time an exit and reenter is an open question, since I’m new. What I hope beyond hope is that disillusioned crypto and Mag 7 busters will discover how strong gold has been. Also on silver, thinking about uranium (URA, NLR), and trying to figure out whether oil will bull. AI energy play is likely oil, natural gas, and nuclear, but oil is tricky. We probably have the mother of all recessions coming (it was coming no matter what, but I think it’s likely Trump policies will hasten it). If it does, good will be fine, silver will be okay, but oil will get clobbered (and it would be great to buy it *then*).
NLR (Nuclear energy and uranium production)
Bought Oklo over SMR or NLR only because of Sam.
Yep, I bought $50k of NLR this week. Starting to see talk of nuclear percolate recently. It’s going to be a few years but necessity will overcome the headwinds.
Why NLR over a much cheaper one like URA? Are VanEck ETFs particularly good?
Tsla Nvida Pltr Started positions in qbts, qtum, asts (small ones) I am considering NLR etf
Added NVDA and NLR Hats off to deepseek bois for that dip Mango should be luring every one involved in that project with visas and cash to US btw
What a day to hold NLR and OKLO as the whole market is about to meltdown.
