Cameco Corporation (CCO-T) is viewed positively among analysts, primarily due to its pivotal role in the uranium sector amid a growing demand for clean energy and nuclear power. Experts underscore its increasing significance with the rising reliance on nuclear energy, particularly for data center power supplies, as well as company initiatives such as its 50% stake in Westinghouse. While its long-term prospects remain optimistic owing to robust demand, there are concerns regarding its current valuation, which is seen as high by several analysts despite strong growth potential and attractive future earnings. Short-term volatility, driven by profit-taking and market fluctuations, adds a layer of caution for potential investors, pointing towards strategic buying opportunities on pullbacks. Overall, the sentiment is that CCO is well-positioned for future growth, provided investors can navigate through necessary corrections and volatility in the uranium market.

Valuation

Overvalued

Similar

Uranium, URA

DON'T BUY

Likes the longer-term outlook for uranium but this one is very expensive for a cyclical company. One of the few large cap plays in the sector. Trading at 28-30 X earnings.

DON'T BUY

In the long run, would prefer Paladin (PDN-T) better. Not sure where uranium prices are going. I've had a lot of things go wrong for them.

BUY

Had a big jump off its lows with huge volumes yesterday. Very attractive returns going forward.

COMMENT

The trend line was up from Nov/06 to Jun/07 and then the pattern was broken to the downside. Every time this has gone up, its competitors have gone down and vice versa. This is not happening now and money is getting nervous. If you must be in uranium, this would be the company.

DON'T BUY

The model prices $44.32, which is a positive 3% differential. This is the first positive differential he has seen on this company for some time.

PARTIAL BUY

If you are looking at uranium out over several years or decades, he cannot see it being out of favour. It is one of the few alternatives we have to middle eastern energy. Both for environmental and political reasons, we will be reducing our reliance on oil. Don't buy a full position, but perhaps only a third.

BUY

The senior producer in North America. Terrific entry price. Have had more problems at Cigar Lake mine.

TOP PICK

Very liquid. Looking at 2009 numbers the stock is very cheap. Trades between $50 and $60. They produce 20% the worlds uranium. They've bought between $40 and $53.

BUY

Uranium prices have had a great run. Not sure if this is sustainable in the long-term.

BUY

Doesn't expect the cigar lake to get going until 2010-2012. But they are the largest uranium producer and has the worlds largest deposits, so they are confident they will get this going. The key thing though is that they have long term contracts paying $35 a unit which are now rolling over and will continue to do that over the next 2 to 3 years. When they renew they will get the new prices which will give tons of cash flow. Suggests buying a cross section of the companies in this sector, as some are getting new contracts currently, (Denison Mines Corp DML-T sxr Uranium One Inc. SXR-T) Signing contracts today with $90 floors and no ceilings.

DON'T BUY

Caller asked for company which did Uranium enrichment. He suggests Cameco, as it pulls it out of the ground and does the enrichment. But he doesn't recommend buying Uranium stocks right now.

DON'T BUY

The only way to play large cap uranium, but it's very expensive. Trading at 40 times earnings. Too much positive anticipation when they really not going to realize the extent of the spot price. Buy at the 25 times earnings range.

DON'T BUY

Uranium stocks have been on fire. Likes the long-term outlook for uranium. At the spot price of $125, this company is only realizing about $20 because of their long-term contracts. Trading at over 50 X multiple of earnings.

TOP PICK

Largest and lowest cost producer in the world. Operates the largest mine in the world. Face some legacy issues in terms of many of their older contracts that they have to sell to what into at reduced prices. Top-notch technical team. They will bring Cigar Lake into production in 2010-2011.

HOLD

If you are a long-term investor, stay with this one. If uranium prices continue to do what they do, and once they get their affairs back in shape, it will be a dandy long-term bet.
