This summary was created by AI, based on 40 opinions in the last 12 months.

Cameco Corporation (CCO) has garnered significant attention due to the renewed interest in uranium and nuclear power, driven by increasing energy prices and concerted demand for clean energy solutions. Experts have noted the company's strong positioning as one of the largest low-cost uranium producers, which complements its recent strategic acquisition of Westinghouse. While many experts express optimism about the long-term demand for uranium, there is also a shared concern regarding its current high valuation, with several suggesting that the stock may be overextended following a robust run-up in prices. Some analysts advocate for a cautious approach, recommending profit-taking or waiting for a pullback to ensure better entry points. Overall, the sentiment is that, while the long-term outlook is positive, the current valuation may not offer ample opportunity for new investments at present levels.

WAIT

For the longest time, no one wanted to talk about this one. All of a sudden people have realized that nuclear is safe, clean, and abundant. Has become in vogue. When uranium is sold to power utilities, those contracts are done for 5-10 years at a time. So he's not sure the earnings power is going to jump up.

If you have a long-term view of 10 years plus, then maybe you want to have a position. If not, be cautious on valuation. Wait for a pullback or for sentiment to become a bit more negative.

BUY

Caught up by sellers in the momentum stocks. Long-term picture for nuclear power is really strong. Demand for power will continue to grow, and this is one of the links in that chain. Stock's pulled back a bit, and he'd be a buyer.

WAIT

CCO is the bellwether, and a big part of URA, a uranium ETF. On the chart for CCO, you can see that it's had a big move but starting to stall out a bit. Starting to consolidate in time. Important support around $85, a 10-15% correction. Likes the chart longer term, but at these high levels it's like flipping a coin. He'd be nervous to put on a big position, especially with his view that a correction is coming in next 1-3 months.

WATCH

We need this power. Likes it long term, as the entire space of clean energy from nuclear power makes sense. Valuation extended. Pushed up into a different stratosphere technically. He'd look to buy in the $80s and $90s. Likes the chart's technical structure.

PARTIAL SELL

How much of their forward PE is already baked into their price vs. the upside. If you hold a large position, take profits. When a commodity price is high, always take some profits. The long-term chart is choppy.

HOLD
If it exceeded revenue estimates, why is stock down?

Sometimes a stock just gets ahead of itself, or the market thinks expectations are too high. Pretty mature, and great, business in the space. His team only buys or sells if there's a significant change in the business or valuation.

He focuses on companies earlier in their cycle, such as NXE.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 22/24, Up 64%)

Nuclear renaissance, and then Russian invasion of Ukraine really tightened up supply and turbo-charged the idea. Cigar Lake producing steadily. Mothballed mine reopened. Low-cost, long-life reserves. Joint venture with Kazakhstan facing issues, but that's a small piece of the puzzle.

Deals with data centres continue. Uranium price is firm, but not high enough to stimulate new supply. Westinghouse JV has signed numerous deals, moving CCO price higher recently. Finding its way into green energy portfolios. Still likes.

PARTIAL SELL

On fire. He used to be in and out, but then it broke out and held for more than a few days. Took some profits (50%) recently, as it's a bit parabolic. Still likes it, wouldn't bail out. Bit overbought, could retrace a bit. 

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 07/25, Up 50%)

(Note the short timeframe.)  Alternative energy play. Westinghouse acquisition sets them up really well for the future. One of his largest positions; hasn't trimmed yet because it hasn't become too big a percentage. Everyone should have 2-3% as a long-term investment.

BUY

Uranium and nuclear companies have a long way they can go. Very early stages of big growth cycle for modular nuclear reactors and large-scale reactors. Nuclear infrastructure purchase gives lots of opportunity for growth. Leader in the group, first to break out to new highs. Big move recently, suspects it'll be a multi-bagger over next 5 years.

PARTIAL BUY

Nuclear sentiment really starting to accelerate. Mini reactors are the trend, hyperscalers are jumping on board, and that will feed the trend. Cigar Lake struggles have gone away, now world leader. Earnings and technicals moving up. Tends to be volatile, so move in by tranches.

HOLD

Likes uranium, the world needs more, and Canada has lots. The world particularly likes uranium from geopolitically stable countries.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He sold part of his position around $90 last year. RSI says it is now way overbought. He likes it, but expects it to pull back to slightly above its old high.

HOLD
Recently got in, has done well.

Nuclear resurgence has been strong, and CCO plays a key role. Saskatchewan assets are very high grade, the best you can get. If you own it, sit tight. If not, watch and wait. Don't chase. So much hype in the space. Executing well, but there's only so much uranium that can be mined and sold.

BUY

The whole nuclear energy theme has really jumped back into the spotlight. No matter what happens with tariffs and other things, we know that there will be expanded (perhaps exponential) demand for energy. Some of that will come from natural gas, and some from nuclear.

A new position for him. Good, and getting better. Can't ignore the breakout from a multi-year base. Westinghouse business is getting better.
