We recently published a list of Pulse of The Market: Tuesday’s 10 Worst Performers. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Oklo Inc. (NYSE:OKLO) stands against other Tuesday’s worst performers.

Wall Street finished Tuesday’s trading in a lackluster fashion, with all major indices ending in the green territory, but only eking out small gains.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq rallied the most, up by 0.46 percent, followed by the S&P 500 with 0.16 percent, and the Dow Jones with a marginal 0.01 percent.

The muted trading spilled over into individual stocks, with 10 in particular posting significant losses. In this article, let’s explore the top 10 companies that performed poorly on Tuesday.

To come up with the list, we considered only the stocks with $2 billion market capitalization and $5 million in trading volume.

Oklo saw its share prices decline by 6.41 percent on Tuesday to end at $28.93 apiece as investor sentiment was dampened by its disappointing earnings performance last year.

In its latest earnings results, OKLO said net loss widened by 129 percent to $73.6 million last year from $32.17 million in 2023, amid a 183-percent jump in operating losses to $52.8 million from $18.6 million year-on-year.

Despite the performance, OKLO said it was optimistic about its business outlook for the year.

“We’ve already made big strides in 2025: evolving our powerhouse offering to scale up to 75 MW, partnering with RPower on a gas-to-nuclear strategy, and expanding into radioisotope production with our strategic acquisition of Atomic Alchemy. These moves unlock new revenue opportunities and open additional markets for Oklo,” OKLO founder and CEO Jacob DeWitte said.

“As the only company with both a site use permit and secured fuel for our first deployment, Oklo remains on track to deliver commercial power by the end of 2027, backed by a strong and growing customer pipeline,” he added.

Overall, OKLO ranks 3rd on our list of Tuesday’s worst performers. While we acknowledge the potential of OKLO as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.
