The growing energy appetite to power AI and data center technologies has led companies to search for clean and cost-efficient energy sources, most notably nuclear power. Tech companies like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), and Alphabet's Google (GOOG, GOOGL) have been signing deals with developers to build out small modular reactors (SMRs) to meet their energy needs. Yahoo Finance special reporter Akiko Fujita dives into the details, highlighting Big Tech's rising interest in the future of nuclear energy. She notes the benefits these SMRs could pose for power grids while no commercial modular reactors have been completed in the US yet. X-energy CEO Clay Sell sat down with Catalysts earlier today to discuss Amazon's investment into the nuclear reactor designer's SMR plans.

Brian Mulberry, Zacks Investment Management client portfolio manager, joins Wealth! to discuss why he prefers value stocks over growth stocks. Mulberry explains that the valuations of the "Magnificent Seven" are getting "a little bit top-heavy." He tells Yahoo Finance, "The S&P 500 (^GSPC) right now is trading the broader market at about a 22 times forward valuation when you're looking at earnings there. If we concentrate that down into the Magnificent Seven, it's still in the mid-to-high 30s. When you can look at the earnings growth that's expected in a place like utilities (XLU) and their forward P/E (price-to-earnings ratio) is only about 9 or 10, there's a much stronger valuation conversation to be had looking at those particular sectors." He notes that in those sectors, there are better-performing individual stocks that will see "durable earnings growth," offering a better investment opportunity. "So we really feel like you can do better at the current valuation levels if you're rotating back to some of those more traditional value sectors, right now," Mulberry adds, pointing to banks as an example.
