Cameco Corporation (CCO) has emerged as a significant player in the uranium sector, driven by a global resurgence in nuclear power demand. Most experts appear optimistic about its long-term prospects, noting that the combination of geopolitical tensions, especially the Ukraine-Russia war, and the growing shift towards clean energy sources favors the uranium market. The company has strong fundamentals with increasing earnings and a notable strategic acquisition of Westinghouse, enhancing its operational capabilities. However, many analysts express concerns over its high valuation, with a considerable number recommending to wait for a price pullback before initiating positions. Despite the positive sentiment around nuclear energy as part of the future energy mix, opinions vary on the appropriate entry points for investment, with current price levels prompting caution among some investors.

COMMENT
A uranium producer. Shares have done quite well. Nuclear is a viable, non-carbon energy producer, but can nuclear overcome negative impacts when things go terribly wrong (a nuclear accident). She doesn't know. To buy Cameco, you must have a positive, long-term outlook for uranium.
COMMENT
The biggest problem with nuclear power is no one wants it in their back yard. Germany, Japan and others are backing out of expansion, despite the benefit from a climate change perspective
WATCH
It's very hard to make nuclear investment which lasts 50-100 years when government policy can change in 5-10. He feels nuclear will be a growing part of power demand, because there's not enough green energy to offset carbon power. CCO is up on uranium prices climbing. Watch, but don't buy this. It pays only a modest dividend, and shares have doubled this year. Watch.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Shortage of consumption vs. production, but there are massive inventories on the sidelines, which is holding back gains. Japan turning reactors back on in the next 2-3 years will bump the price. Good long-term story. Wait for it to drift into the $20s before you buy.
HOLD
Across the world, politicians are recognizing the importance of nuclear as part of the total energy picture. Depressed prices have been tough on the sector. But now the price is up. Outlook for nuclear is positive going forward. He's more comfortable owning CCO than the commodity. He's owned CCO since December, has lightened up since it's had a great run, but retains a small position.
HOLD
Equity vs. covered calls. Buying uranium on the spot market had been lower than the cost of mining it. But now the price has increased. At what price do they start bring production back online? He thinks around $60 or higher. He lightened up, as the position got north of 3% of his portfolio and he wanted to lock in profits. As the share price goes higher, it gets a lot more volatile. Covered calls are a smart way to play the position, but you have to be aware that you could get taken out. It's not something he'd do, but he understands the argument for getting some extra yield pickup.
BUY
The sector will start to be more volatile as more eyes start to look at it. However, uranium is a key way to greening the world. Before the Fukushima incident, Cameco was higher so there is probably still more upside to be captured.

RISKY
Miles and miles ahead of even remotely reasonable value. FMV is 90% below current stock price. Plans for new and refurbished reactors suggests there will be spectacular demand in the future. Pure speculation, but not like Bitcoin. Powerful potential. 2-4% of your portfolio and hold, but don't watch it every day or you'll go nuts.
BUY

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. The space has seen more interest and the supply demand picture is positive for CCO. It has been losing money but this could change quickly depending on the new pricing regime. The company is debt free and has $200M in cash. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

HOLD
Like any commodity producer, you are on a roller coaster because of the commodity price. We are in the sweet spot for Uranium so you may want to hold on to it for a while longer. The whole world cannot reply on wind and solar. He thinks you will see a bit of a resurgence. It is okay valued here.
DON'T BUY
It is part of the solution for the planet going forward. It's become a bit of a Reddit favourite. He wouldn't buy any stock that's the flavour de jour.
DON'T BUY
It's been a surprising year for uranium with the price jumping from $29 to $44. Uranium funds have been buying a lot of uranium. But he is perplexed by this metal; it has a lot of politics around it with intentions to build reactors, but always in the future. Not sure if uranium prices will hold. CCO stock is too high now. He avoids this space.
