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.
Has chosen this as his single stock to outperform the market during 2015. Had looked like uranium prices had finally bottomed at around the $28 per pound level. It had actually got as high as $40. Technicals have been fairly positive in the last little while, but the price of uranium has gone from $40-$35, which is not supposed to happen. This has caused the stock to slow down, but it is still in an upward trend. He wouldn’t be overly concerned, but seasonality does not support this particular trade.
