Shares of NANO Nuclear Energy Inc (NNE) surged 19.08% in pre-market trading on Friday, as investors reacted to reports that President Trump is expected to sign executive orders aimed at revitalizing the U.S. nuclear energy industry. This significant uptick comes amid a broader rally in nuclear-related stocks, reflecting growing optimism about the sector's future.

According to sources familiar with the matter, as reported by Reuters, President Trump could sign these executive orders as early as Friday.

This broad-based rally underscores the market's positive reaction to the anticipated policy shift, which could significantly benefit companies operating in the nuclear energy sector. As global efforts to reduce carbon emissions intensify, nuclear energy is gaining renewed attention as a potential clean energy solution, further driving investor interest in companies like NANO Nuclear Energy.
