The VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy ETF (NLR) tracks a market-cap-weighted index of companies operating within the nuclear power industry. The fund allocates at least 80% of its assets to global equities involved in uranium mining, enrichment, and nuclear utility operations. As a non-diversified fund, it maintains concentrated positions in a sector characterized by high capital intensity and long-term government contracting cycles.
The nuclear sector serves as a critical component of baseload power generation, providing a consistent energy supply that complements intermittent renewable sources like wind and solar. Business models in this space often include vertically integrated utilities that manage the entire lifecycle of nuclear fuel, from extraction to reactor maintenance.
