On July 22, Centrus Energy rose 8.22% in regular trading, trading at $169.27/share, with turnover of $56.54 million. The rally was driven by continued passive fund allocation following the company's formal inclusion in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index effective July 14, combined with a broad uranium sector rally.
Centrus announced its addition to the S&P SmallCap 600 in early July, a milestone that followed the company finalizing a task order from the US Department of Energy valued at up to $1.07 billion for deploying HALEU production capacity. The broader nuclear-uranium sector showed strong momentum on the same day, with Energy Fuels up 5.11%, Denison Mines up 4.95%, Nexgen Energy up 3.84%, and Cameco up 3.77%, reflecting clear sector-wide linkage effects.
Centrus Energy is a nuclear fuel components and services supplier operating LEU supply and Technical Solutions segments, currently deploying uranium enrichment and advanced nuclear fuel production capabilities at its Ohio and Tennessee facilities.
