Oklo Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>) shares are trading higher by 8.6% to $27.67 Tuesday afternoon after Axios <a href="https://www.axios.com/pro/energy-policy/2025/05/06/scoop-white-house-seeks-to-hasten-nuclear-deployment">reported</a> that the White House is preparing executive orders aimed at fast-tracking the deployment of nuclear reactors. 
The news sparked investor enthusiasm for advanced nuclear developer Oklo, which specializes in compact reactors designed to deliver power for data centers, defense applications and remote sites.
What To Know: According to Axios, the planned executive actions would leverage the Departments of Defense (DOD) and Energy (DOE) to bypass traditional licensing delays from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). 
Citing multiple anonymous sources, Axios <a href="https://www.axios.com/pro/energy-policy/2025/05/06/scoop-white-house-seeks-to-hasten-nuclear-deployment">noted</a> the DOD could play a &#8220;key enabler&#8221; role due to its substantial energy needs and capacity to absorb regulatory risk.

One source told Axios the move would promote faster reactor deployment by forming a DOD-DOE partnership, avoiding NRC bottlenecks.
What Else: Oklo, which recently went public via a SPAC backed by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44937524/oklo-stock-falls-as-sam-altman-steps-down-as-board-chair-now-is-the-right-time">former board chairman</a> Sam Altman, has gained attention for its potential role in powering AI infrastructure. 
With rising energy demands from hyperscalers, Oklo's scalable, clean nuclear solutions may increasingly be viewed as a strategic asset. Investors on Tuesday appear to be betting that the White House's nuclear push could significantly benefit Oklo's business.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy OKLO Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Oklo&#8217;s case, it is in the Utilities sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, OKLO has a 52-week high of $59.14 and a 52-week low of $5.35.

Oklo Stock Soars As White House Reportedly Eyes Executive Action To Accelerate Nuclear Deployment

Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) and Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) are both set to report earnings after the close on Tuesday. Both carmakers are bleeding cash, but only one <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle">seems to be gaining traction</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rivian: Building Momentum And Infrastructure</h2>
Wall Street is bracing for Rivian <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/RIVN/earnings">to post a</a> loss of 76 cents per share on $1 billion in revenue, but pre-earnings sentiment is leaning cautiously optimistic.
The Irvine, California-based company just unveiled plans to spend $120 million on a 1.2 million-square-foot supplier park next to its Illinois factory, <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/rivian-to-build-120-million-dollar-supplier-park-in-illinois/chiI3uORbSb">reported</a> Stocktwits. The strategic move, meant to streamline operations ahead of R2 production in 2026, adds credibility to the EV maker's long-term story. 
Still, the stock dipped 1% in early trading as investors wait to see whether words will turn into numbers.

Still, Rivian&#8217;s stock is in the fast lane, trading above its 20, 50 and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs). Its Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator sits at 0.48, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a comfortable 58.74 &#8211; signaling strong but not overheated momentum. Recent selling pressure can be seen as the stock trades below its eight-day SMA of $13.39.
Shares are up just 1% year to date, but the setup looks bullish overall in terms of earnings, especially with infrastructure expansion backing the narrative.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lucid: Low Power Mode?</h2>
Lucid is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LCID/earnings">expected to report</a> a 23-cent per-share loss on $250 million in revenue. But unlike Rivian, pre-earnings sentiment is weaker.
Lucid&#8217;s recent <a href="https://ir.lucidmotors.com/news-releases/news-release-details/lucid-and-saudi-arabias-kaust-announce-strategic-partnership#:~:text=IR%20Menu-,Lucid%20and%20Saudi%20Arabia's%20KAUST%20Announce%20Strategic%20Partnership%20to%20Advance,Advanced%20Driver%20Assist%20System%20Capabilities&amp;text=KING%20ABDULLAH%20ECONOMIC%20CITY%2C%20Saudi,%2F%20%2D%2D%20Lucid%20Group%2C%20Inc.">announcement </a>of a high-tech partnership with Saudi Arabia's KAUST to develop autonomous driving components and AI hardware was quickly overshadowed by geopolitical jitters. As the Saudi Public Investment Fund remains Lucid's largest backer, rising tariff risks under the Trump administration are spooking investors.

Technically, the setup is shaky. Newark, California-based Lucid is trading below its five, 20 and 50-day moving averages — classic bearish territory. RSI is stuck at 42.13, and the MACD is 0.00, lacking any direction and conviction.
Lucid stock is down nearly 24% so far in 2025. Investors may be more interested in clarity on Gravity SUV timelines and tech licensing than Tuesday&#8217;s revenue number.
With both Rivian and Lucid earnings on deck, signals suggest only one EV stock has the green light.

Rivian Vs. Lucid: One Of These Tesla Rivals Is Stuck In Neutral Ahead Of Q1 Earnings

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced its intent to expand the use of unannounced inspections at foreign manufacturing facilities that produce foods, essential medicines, and other medical products intended for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care" rel="noreferrer noopener">American consumers and patients</a>.
This change builds upon the agency&#8217;s Office of Inspection and Investigations&#8217; Foreign Unannounced Inspection Pilot program in India and China and aims to ensure that foreign companies will receive the same level of regulatory oversight and scrutiny as domestic companies.&nbsp;
&#8220;For too long, foreign companies have enjoyed a double standard—given advanced notice before facility inspections, while American manufacturers are held to rigorous standards with no such warning,&#8221; said FDA Commissioner Martin Makary. &nbsp;
On Tuesday, the FDA <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-announces-expanded-use-unannounced-inspections-foreign-manufacturing-facilities?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=govdelivery" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> it plans to review and improve its foreign inspection program to ensure it meets the highest standards for oversight. Part of this effort includes making it clear that FDA inspectors should not accept travel-related perks like hotel stays or transportation from the companies they inspect.

The FDA conducts about 12,000 inspections annually in the U.S. and 3,000 in other countries. While U.S. companies often get surprise inspections, foreign companies usually receive advanced notice, giving them time to prepare and potentially hide problems.
Still, foreign inspections often reveal serious issues, more than twice as often as domestic ones.
In the U.S., inspections are usually unannounced unless specific programs require advance notice to ensure staff and records are available.
Even then, companies can&#8217;t pick the date or time. The FDA says foreign companies shouldn&#8217;t have that option either.
By shifting to more surprise inspections abroad, the FDA aims to better protect American consumers by catching dishonest practices, like falsifying records or hiding violations, before they cause harm.
The agency can take action against any company that tries to delay, block, or refuse an unannounced inspection.
The update follows President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8217;s signed executive order on Monday to promote prescription drug manufacturing in the U.S., streamlining the path for companies to build new production sites as potential tariffs on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs" rel="noreferrer noopener">imported medicines loom</a>.
The order directs the FDA to reduce the amount of time it takes to approve manufacturing plants in the U.S. by eliminating unnecessary requirements, streamlining reviews, and working with domestic drugmakers to &#8220;provide early support before facilities come online,&#8221; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/05/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-announces-actions-to-reduce-regulatory-barriers-to-domestic-pharmaceutical-manufacturing/" rel="noreferrer noopener">according</a> to&nbsp;a White House fact sheet.
It also directs the agency to raise inspection fees for foreign manufacturing plants, improve the enforcement of active-ingredient source reporting by overseas producers, and consider publicly listing facilities that don&#8217;t comply.
The White House <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/05/regulatory-relief-to-promote-domestic-production-of-critical-medicines/" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimates</a> that it can currently take five to ten years to build new pharmaceutical manufacturing capacity, which it calls &#8220;unacceptable from a national-security standpoint.&#8221;

FDA Expands Surprise Inspections At Foreign Drug And Food Facilities, Targets Double Standards In Overseas Manufacturing Oversight

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) shares are trading lower Tuesday. The stock appears to be moving in reaction to an executive order from the Trump administration aimed at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45215281/trump-orders-fda-to-fast-track-us-drug-production-as-tariff-threat-looms-on-imported-medicines-cites-national-security-concerns">boosting domestic drug manufacturing</a>.
What To Know: President Donald Trump signed a new executive order late Monday that aims to reshape the pharmaceutical supply chain by incentivizing drug manufacturers in the U.S., according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/05/trump-order-us-drug-manufacturing.html">CNBC.</a>
The order calls on federal agencies to speed up approval for U.S.-based manufacturing facilities, increase inspection fees on overseas drugmakers and streamline permitting through a coordinated, centralized process. 
The executive order directs the FDA to increase fees for foreign manufacturing plants and proposes publicizing facilities that fail to meet compliance standards. A key provision calls for &#8220;surprise&#8221; inspections abroad, ending the practice of giving advance notice to international sites, which U.S. plants are already subject to.
The policy shift comes as pharmaceutical imports into the U.S. remain high with $203 billion in imports in 2023 alone. Nearly 75% of the imported pharmaceutical products in 2023 came from Europe, mainly Ireland, Germany and Switzerland.
Although Eli Lilly manufactures a lot of its products in the U.S., the company has significant operations and investments in both Ireland and Germany. Eli Lilly also imports a lot of its pharmaceutical ingredients, however, the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/44189496/eli-lilly-pours-27b-into-u-s-growth-what-it-means-for-investors">announced plans</a> in February to invest $27 billion in U.S. manufacturing, with most plants focused on pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing.
The new executive order aims to reduce this dependency by encouraging U.S.-based production, which government officials argue is essential for national security and supply chain resilience.
Drugmakers such as Eli Lilly could face cost pressures from the realignment. The Trump administration is also preparing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44708204/trump-hints-at-major-tariff-on-imported-pharmaceuticals-us-pharma-stocks-tumble-in-wednesday-pre-market">announce tariffs</a> on imported pharmaceuticals, adding another layer of uncertainty for companies with global supply chains. Several pharmaceutical stocks appear to be moving lower in response to the announcement and the potential implications for operating costs and regulatory compliance.
LLY Price Action: Eli Lilly shares were down 6.06% at $771.69 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Eli Lilly Stock Is Sliding Tuesday: What's Going On?

Billionaire hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones believes the U.S. economy is either in or near recession. He also expects stocks to fall to new lows this year, but he has made similar predictions multiple times in recent years <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/short-ideas/22/10/29205954/paul-tudor-jones-correctly-predicted-the-1987-stock-market-crash-heres-what-the-billion">and been wrong.</a>
What To Know: Jones predicted Tuesday morning on CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Squawk Box&#8221; that a recession is nearing if the economy isn&#8217;t already in the middle of one.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t know whether it started now or it started two months ago &#8230; But I&#8217;m assuming we are going to go into one,&#8221; Jones said on the show.
He also predicted that President Donald Trump will ease tariffs on China to around 40% or 50%, from the current average of around 125% for most products. 
&#8220;I&#8217;m sure he&#8217;ll dial it back to 50 [percent]. I think that&#8217;s kind of in the market right now,&#8221; he said. 
He indicated that an easing of tariffs on China is already priced in and won&#8217;t save the markets from heading to new lows for the year. He believes the damage is already done, suggesting that one could assume 2% to 3% lower growth. 
He said that when combined with the Federal Reserve, which is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44403637/fed-keeps-interest-rates-unchanged-forecasts-hotter-inflation-lower-growth-ahead" target="_blank" rel="noopener">standing firm on rates</a>, it&#8217;s a recipe for new lows for broader markets.
&#8220;You're probably gonna go to new lows. And then when we&#8217;re at new lows, the hard day will start to follow and it&#8217;ll probably create the Fed to move, create Trump to move, and we&#8217;ll get some kind of reality,&#8221; Jones said.

Why It Matters: Jones is well known for predicting the stock market crash of 1987, known&nbsp;as &#8220;Black Monday.&#8221; He&#8217;s also called for recession and a stock market crash multiple times in recent years and been wrong. 
With markets trending down in 2022, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/short-ideas/22/10/29205954/paul-tudor-jones-correctly-predicted-the-1987-stock-market-crash-heres-what-the-billion">appeared on CNBC</a> and predicted that a recession was coming.
&#8220;[Jerome] Powell&#8217;s already talked about pain. I take that as a metaphor for recession. And if we go into recession, that has really negative consequences for a variety of assets,&#8221; Jones said on Oct. 10, 2022.
As it turned out, October marked the bottom for stocks in 2022 and the S&amp;P 500 ended up racing higher throughout 2023, offering approximately 24% gains for investors who held onto positions. Jones actually used almost<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/short-ideas/22/10/29205954/paul-tudor-jones-correctly-predicted-the-1987-stock-market-crash-heres-what-the-billion"> identical language</a> in 2022 as he did on Tuesday, noting at the time that he was &#8220;assuming we are going to go into&#8221; a recession, if we weren&#8217;t already in one.
Jones also came on CNBC in October 2023 and predicted that stocks were going to crash because of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/10/35167330/paul-tudor-jones-warns-stocks-could-plunge-with-threat-of-nuclear-war-led-by-sociopaths-in-china">threat of nuclear war</a>.

WK Kellogg Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLG#NYSE">KLG</a>) reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45218611/wk-kellogg-co-announces-first-quarter-2025-results-and-updates-2025-outlook" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter results</a> on Tuesday.
The company <a target="_blank" href="https://s203.q4cdn.com/450659508/files/doc_financials/2025/q1/KLG-2025-Q1-Exhibit-99-1.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">clocked</a> earnings per share of 20 cents, missing the street view of 34 cents. Quarterly sales of $663 million missed the analyst consensus estimate of $679.49 million.
Quarterly reported net sales declined 6.2% year-over-year, while organic net sales were down 5.6% from the prior year. The drop in organic net sales was driven by reduced retailer inventory tied to Easter holiday timing, the comparison against a major prior-year promotion, and softer-than-expected consumption trends.

Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter under review was $72 million, down 4% year over year. This decrease was driven by lower sales volume. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 10.8% from 10.6% in the year-ago period.
In the first quarter, price/mix rose 3.0% while volume declined 8.6%.
Chairman and CEO Gary Pilnick said the company remains on track to achieve a margin improvement of around 500 basis points by the end of 2026.
&#8220;In the first quarter, we saw consumers continue to focus on health and nutrition, which we view as a positive development for the category,&#8221; Pilnick added.
Outlook: The company said 2025 organic net sales are now projected to fall approximately between (2.0)% and (3.0)%, compared to the prior guidance of a (1.0)% decline.
2025 adjusted EBITDA growth is now projected to be flat to down (2.0)%, compared to the prior guidance of 4% to 6% growth.
The 2025 financial outlook includes a modest impact from tariffs, mainly tied to raw materials sourced outside North America.
It assumes most production remains exempt from tariffs on trade with Canada and Mexico.
However, the company said, there is no guarantee that these exemptions will continue or that future tariffs will not further affect the business and financial results.
Price Action: KLG shares are trading higher by 2.25% to $17.75 at last check on Tuesday.

Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
