Missouri Seeks to Become Global Producer of Small Nuclear Reactors

11. Well... the last point is certainly correct.

Economic weakness will continue to dampen demand and that (along with desire to preserve capital) will certainly cut demand for high-dollar projects.

But you're missing how that works in this case. We're talking about building an industry that produces small modular reactors. They're cheaper (certainly on a gross basis), so capital concerns are less of an issue. More importantly, the economic hit is not the same all around the world. There are plenty of countries with rapid growth and many of them want nuclear power and lots of it. This specific option is very exportable (and more of the work stays here).
