VanEck Uranium + Nuclear Energy ETF

$VanEck Uranium + Nuclear Energy ETF(NLR.US)

Context: Have been interested in nuclear energy as a longer-term play on rising electricity demand, especially from data centres and AI. But this is a much more volatile theme than my core holdings and the recent pullback is a good reminder of that.

My trade: I started building NLR with two small purchases as the price came down. I’m keeping the position relatively small rather than chasing the nuclear theme after its earlier run.

Takeaway: I’m willing to sit through the volatility because I see the long-term energy demand story, but I don’t want to mistake a good theme for a low-risk investment. For me, position sizing matters here.

$VanEck Uranium + Nuclear Energy ETF(NLR.US) Increasingly the world needs more energy, and renewables are unable to bridge the gap. Nuclear is required and I believe will form a significant part of the energy mix in the future. Hold and buy the dip!

NLR gives exposure to companies involved in nuclear energy and uranium, making it an interesting way to benefit from growing demand for reliable, low-carbon power. The nuclear sector is gaining attention as countries expand energy security and data centres increase electricity demand. The main risks are uranium price volatility, project delays, regulation, and the capital required to build new nuclear capacity.

Countries and hyperscalers are increasingly looking at nuclear to achieve energy indepedence and feed the ever increasing energy-intensive needs of data centres

$NVIDIA(NVDA.US) Jensen Huang: The demand for renewable energy in data centers is growing rapidly, and nuclear power is a good option.
