The stock market is essentially random. Each resource has a base price (it is 10k for nuclear - skims at the edge of profitability when you first unlock it without engineers assigned), which is then multiplied based on how much you bought (for nuclear, this dependency is really weak, like power 0.1 or so), and the price drifts around that.
It is definitely possible that the price would be too high at some times.
