Why Oklo Stock Is Powering Higher Today
Oklo is a nuclear energy upstart developing small modular reactors. Seaport Research upgraded Oklo stock to buy from neutral. The company is still in the pre-revenue phase of its development, making it a more speculative investment. 10 stocks we like better than Oklo › Bouncing back from the 4.6% decline that they suffered during the first week of June, shares of Oklo (NYSE: OKLO) are off to an auspicious start this week. After learning of an analyst's positive outlook on the nuclear power upstart, investors clearly felt motivated to click the buy button on shares of the company developing small modular reactors. As of 3:17 p.m. ET, shares of Oklo are up 6.4%. Upgrading it to buy from neutral, Seaport Research assigned a $71 price target on Oklo stock, according to The Fly. Based on Oklo's closing price of $50.29 on Friday, Seaport's price target implies upside of more than 41%. Seaport's more bullish opinion on Oklo is predicated on the fact that the company is now eligible for awards from the Defense Innovation Unit's Advanced Nuclear Power for Installations program, an encouraging sign that the company is more likely to win necessary approvals from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Oklo is developing small modular reactors that represent cleaner and more efficient nuclear energy solutions than traditional nuclear power plants. While Seaport Research sees an ample amount of upside to Oklo stock, investors should remember that the company is still not generating revenue. Sure, the company's technology is intriguing, and the fact that OpenAI founder Sam Altman was at the helm of Oklo as CEO from July 2021 to May 2024 is encouraging, but there's still a significant amount of risk tied to the stock. At this point, therefore, only those with significant risk tolerances should weigh a position in Oklo stock, while those who are committed to nuclear energy exposure but looking to mitigate risk will want to consider a more established company. Before you buy stock in Oklo, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Oklo wasn't one of them.

Nordson Electronics Solutions Develops Panel-Level Packaging Solution for Powertech Technology, Inc. that Achieves Yields Greater than 99% for Underfilling During Semiconductor Manufacturing
The ASYMTEK Vantage® Dispensing system equipped with IntelliJet® Jetting system reduced underfill voids and decreased cycle time by almost 30%. CARLSBAD, Calif., June 11, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nordson Electronics Solutions, a global leader in reliable electronics manufacturing technologies, has developed several solutions for panel-level packaging (PLP) during semiconductor manufacturing. In one particular case, Nordson's customer, Powertech Technology, Inc. (PTI) saw underfill yields improve to greater than 99% as they plan to transition from wafers to panels in their manufacturing operations. For details about this solution developed in late 2024 and 2025, download the case study here: Customer Success: Powertech Technology Inc. (PTI) Advances Panel Level Packaging with Nordson. PTI, one of the world's top OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) companies, worked with the Nordson applications team to set up a comprehensive PLP demonstration that achieved high-quality, void-free underfill results at scale, using the industry-leading ASYMTEK Vantage® Series fluid dispensing system, equipped with the ASYMTEK IntelliJet® Jetting system. Nordson's precision technology mitigated warpage and optimized fluid flow while decreasing cycle time by almost 30%. PLP offers a path to managing the complexity of larger die sizes and higher-density designs while maintaining manufacturability and cost efficiency as the semiconductor industry transitions from 300-mm wafers to panels. PTI is enabling PLP applications that are designed to meet the semiconductor industry's growing demands to serve AI, high-performance computing (HPC), and chiplet-based architectures. Underfill has been pivotal in semiconductor packaging since the adoption of flip-chips in the 1990s. As applications have become more demanding, particularly in high-performance CPUs, GPUs, and advanced architectures like flip-chip and 2.5D/3D ICs, the importance of underfilling to enhance mechanical reliability and thermal performance has grown. Since the beginning, Nordson developed innovations for underfill processes as the industry evolved from PC board, substrate, wafer, and now panel applications. Nordson's distributor, Jetinn Global Equipment Ltd., supported the advancements discussed in this case study by investing in demonstration equipment and providing expert technical support.
