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.
He is watching this and spending a little bit of time looking at it because it is so beat up. Reported a pretty miserable Q2, and the stock fell further. It still trades at a relatively high valuation multiple of about 17X next year’s earnings. There are still a number of concerns about the oversupply of uranium, and part of that needs to be resolved by getting a number of these Japanese nuclear reactors back online. There is also a CRA issue that is overhanging the stock, and it is probably priced in. If there was a negative decision from the trial, it could have a further negative impact on the share price.
