OKLO: Deja vu? (An 11x Return Last Time this Occured)

Key Takeaways

  • Investors should not discount the power of historical precedent.
  • Oklo's technical picture suggests the stock provides an asymmetric bet here.
  • With its META deal, OKLO is transitioning from a speculative concept to a validated leader.

Nothing Ever Changes on Wall Street

Legendary stock speculator Jesse Livermore once said:

“There is nothing new in Wall Street. There can’t be because speculation is as old as the hills. Whatever happens in the stock market today has happened before and will happen again.”

I have discovered that, while history never repeats completely on Wall Street, it does tend to rhyme. By studying historical patterns, investors can gain a mental edge and perhaps even a roadmap if proven correctly. For instance, last year, I pointed out to Tech Innovator Investors the uncanny resemblance between Google’s ((GOOGL - Free Report) ) 2004 IPO U-turn base structure and CoreWeave’s ((CRWV - Free Report) ) 2025 IPO U-turn base. Each stock was in a hot industry group, was liquid, and had several bullish catalysts. CRWV would go on to mimic GOOGL’s 2004 performance and provide me with a juicy 118% in 2025.

Meanwhile, Paul Tudor Jones famously predicted the “Black Monday” crash of 1987 by using a 1929 overlay chart as precedent.

Is Oklo’s Chart Pattern Repeating?

Earlier, while scanning through charts, I made a fascinating discovery. Oklo ((OKLO - Free Report) ), a leader in the small modular reactor (SMR) nuclear space, is forming a near-identical pattern to April 2024. In 2024, the stock corrected in a zig-zag fashion (with the first leg being the longest), dropped ~70%, and then tagged its 200-day moving average before exploding higher. Currently, OKLO shares have created an identical zig-zag pattern, have corrected ~63.44%, and recently found support at the rising 200-day moving average.

While precedents are by no means a guarantee, the performance potential is undeniable. Following the April 2024 correction, OKLO shares would scream higher from ~$17 to nearly $200 a share!

Data Centers are Moving Off the Grid (Bullish for SMRs)

President Donald Trump recently said that he will not allow big tech companies to drive consumer electric prices higher. In other words, tech giants who are building energy-hungry data centers will need to supply their own power. Already, tech leader Microsoft ((MSFT - Free Report) ) has pledged to make major changes to its energy consumption to ensure that taxpayers “do not pick up the tab” for data center power. Meanwhile, 33% of planned data centers will not use the grid, and this number will only grow (a positive for OKLO0.

OKLO: Mega Deals in the Pipeline

Oklo recently received validation of its nuclear ambitions after signing a major deal with Meta Platforms ((META - Free Report) ) to develop a 1.2 GW energy campus.

Bottom Line

Technical patterns tend to repeat on Wall Street. Nuclear power leader OKLO has a near-identical pattern to its 2024 surge. However, this time, it has even more catalysts.
