This summary was created by AI, based on 45 opinions in the last 12 months.

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.

Super bullish on AI, it's just getting started. We're going to run out of power before we run out of demand for AI. Need energy, cooling, construction, labour, chips, racks. Hard to tell what future's going to bring. Demand for data centres will be a bumpy story as the economy ebbs and flows.

Nuclear is exciting, but unsure how quickly you're going to make money. CCO is a great business with great operations. Good for those who bought the dip in April. He'd prefer nat gas via TOU.

WATCH

Think of it as a core position in a Canadian context. Uranium has really come into its own. Outside of speculative companies, is the best low-cost producer. Nuclear servicing via Westinghouse purchase. Not something you need to jump into with both feet today.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 11/24, Down 15%)

He and his team are secular bulls on the nuclear renaissance. Cheap and clean. Has second-largest stock of uranium in the world. Utilities that buy uranium are like deer in the headlights right now on uncertainty of whether Washington will broker a truce with Russia on Ukraine, bringing Russian uranium back online.

DON'T BUY

Uranium stocks have been pulling back since November, before the market started to correct. Technically in the near term, they're all broken. Long-term picture is excellent. Don't add here, until you see something change for the better.

RISKY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

CCO has had three broker target price downgrades in April. In addition, the uranium sector has been weak as investors consider whether Russian exports will be allowed to resume if there is some resolution to the Ukraine War.

BUY

Came off quite significantly between December and March. Previous high was ~$85; the 50% retracement takes us to $72.50. This is where we saw some resistance in early February. Hard to say if it would get to $80. Usually, if there's a move in a stock, the countermove can often be about half of that.

COMMENT

Nuclear power is a way forward and there is a case for smaller nuclear power plants. He doesn't like cyclical stocks but Cameco is in a bit of a sweet spot. Lots of power will be needed for AI data centres.

WATCH

On her watchlist. Have to have a very long-term view on uranium to buy this name. Long-term contracts, which don't reflect uranium spot price. Nuclear resurgence, positive on the sector. Price still ahead of itself. She has indirect exposure through BIP.UN, which co-owns Westinghouse with CCO.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Looking at it closely. Long-term future of nuclear looks very positive. Electrification of the economy increasing power demand. Many governments more willing to build facilities. Well managed. Good buy on a pullback like today.

TOP PICK

Best way to participate in Uranium them. Believes Uranium prices will continue to rise. Recent weakness in Uranium prices has created buying opportunity. Owns large portion of Westinghouse - manufacture of nuclear related assets. Excellent growth prospects. Dividend continues to rise with earnings. Capital discipline with strong balance sheet. 

WAIT

Technical structure has been very strong. 200-day MA trending higher. Stock's trading right at that 200-day, which could provide support. Fell off on the DeepSeek buzz (if not as much energy is needed, maybe not as much uranium is needed either) -- quite a stretch. Long term, makes a lot of sense. Expensive valuation.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Nuclear energy is coming back and it has to. For clean energy, there's nothing better. Demand is there and will continue to grow. Likes this name, but you have to be mindful of the supply response when uranium prices are high. Likes it long term, but there will be ups and downs in the cycle.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Quality, long-term uranium play. In Saskatchewan, CCO owns all the infrastructure and decides what mines are going to be developed. He's been in and out of the name over the years.

DON'T BUY

Too expensive.

BUY
US utility name for exposure to data centres?

His firm is doing some research on nuclear power and electricity generators. Hasn't pulled the trigger yet. Likes the idea of data centres driving change in electricity demand. 

He's playing it from the upstream angle with CCO, the biggest publicly owned pure-play uranium company. Still likes it.
