Lightbridge Corp. (LTBR), a company that actively develops nuclear fuel technology, has declined 7.21% in aftermarket trading session. Owing to that, the stock was trading at $11.59 when last checked. The decline came as a result of the profit-taking factor after the stock went berserk in Wednesday’s regular trading session. It soared by 29.97% to close the day at $12.49. The reason for the surge was the announcement from the company that its CEO, Seth Grae, would appear in the Hannity show of FOX News, even though a later release announced the postponement of the show owing to the breaking news. Let’s discuss some recent developments of LTBR stock.

The patent was based upon the 2014 Patent Cooperation Treaty patent application. It broadened the company’s claims which were directed towards the fuel assembly.
