Why Oklo Stock Slumped Today

The company priced its upcoming secondary share issue. It's selling its common stock at $60 apiece. 10 stocks we like better than Oklo › One of the hotter energy stocks of recent times cooled down on Friday. This is next-generation nuclear company Oklo (NYSE: OKLO), which provided details of a capital-raising effort it originally announced late Wednesday afternoon. Investors weren't all that happy with this, and on Friday, they traded the stock down to leave it with a more than 1% loss in value. After market hours Thursday, Oklo provided more information about the secondary share issue it disclosed the previous day. The issue has been priced at $60 per share, more than $4 below Thursday's closing price. The company is to float nearly 6.7 million shares of its class A common stock, so the issue is set to raise gross proceeds of slightly over $400 million. The issue's underwriting syndicate is led by Goldman Sachs and Bank of America Securities and includes Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase's J.P. Morgan, and UBS Investment Bank. The underwriters have been granted a 30-day option to collectively purchase up to 1 million additional shares at that $60 per share price. The offering should close this coming Monday, June 16. Despite recent successes, such as its receipt of a notice of intent to award (NOITA) a project on an Alaska base for the Air Force, Oklo is still at a relatively early stage as a company. As such, it continues to be hungry for capital to sustain its operations. The downside of this, of course, is the dilutive nature of share issues. This one isn't particularly so, as Oklo has more than 139 million shares currently outstanding. Still, it's surely spooking investors who worry that there are more, and larger, share issues to come.

Why American Express Stock Flopped on Friday

A report in a top financial newspaper highlighted a large potential threat to the business of payment card companies. A proposed federal law could make the threat more acute. 10 stocks we like better than American Express › Sturdy payment card mainstay American Express's (NYSE: AXP) stock was looking a bit rickety on the last trading day of the week. The company's shares lost more than 3% of their value on Friday following a report in a top financial newspaper regarding the potential defection of an important customer base. By comparison, the S&P 500 index only fell by slightly over 1% that day. That morning, The Wall Street Journal published an article stating that some of the largest American retailers are considering how to use stablecoins in their businesses. Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies that are pegged to a fiat currency, such as the dollar, and typically buttressed by cash or relatively liquid securities. Citing unidentified "people familiar with the matter," the newspaper wrote that influential companies in the sector, such as Walmart and Amazon, are even considering whether to issue their own stablecoins. The Journal also flagged sprawling online travel agency Expedia Group as a business exploring such an option. The attraction of payment instruments like stablecoins is that, if implemented well, they could save retailers vast amounts of money in fees. A key source of revenue for card payment companies is the small charges they impose on merchants accepting their cards, hence the negative AmEx investor reaction to the news. How far such efforts go will depend on the fate of the Genius Act, a proposed law making its way through Congress that would erect a regulatory framework for stablecoins. If it successfully makes it through the legislative process and becomes law in some useful form, stablecoins could indeed become a money-saving instrument convenient for U.S. retailers and their customers.
