As of Jun 25, 2026. Market Open.
It goes back to the fact that there's been some profit-taking over the past month or so. Still up 50% over last 12 months. Long-term, clean-energy/renewable theme makes a lot of sense. Fallen to around the 200-day MA, still pretty attractive from a technical perspective with its higher highs and higher lows.
He owns some bonds, but hasn't pulled the trigger on the equity. Disconnect between a 10-year horizon for contracts and the current spot price for uranium. Spot price won't be showing up in the profitability.
If you've made money, well done. Remember that commodities tend to overshoot in either direction. Don't add at these levels.
Beat last quarter, but guidance was a bit lower. Very attractive, multi-year outlook, but don't add here. About 40% growth, but trading ~75x PE for 2027. Ironically, a real risk to this name is if peace comes to the Ukraine-Russia war.
You have to have respect for stock prices at both ends of the extreme.
If you own, this is a tough one. Certainly they are a low cost producer of uranium, but the problem is around the demand side. There is a feeling that Japan is going to restart reactors and you hear about new reactors going to start in China and globally. On the supply side, you hear about the reduction in the Russian highly enriched uranium. All these things should point to a better uranium price but it has not. He is on the sideline until he sees some improvement in demand. If you own, he would probably continue to Hold as there is not much more downside in the near-term.
