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.
The good news for the uranium sector is that Japan is going back to nuclear. The good news for the people of Japan is that radiation levels in Tokyo right now are less than in Paris. This company requires nuclear reactors to be built sooner or later. Has an existing business of refuelling existing reactors. Decommissioning nuclear plants is hugely problematic, burying spent energy is hugely problematic and mining uranium is hard work. This company has had a lot of problems getting it out of the ground. Feels it is overvalued. Uranium Participation (U-T) might be a smarter play.
