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.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Uranium is a good transition fuel.
Believes business prospects good (short term).
Long term prospects for business not as good (renewables better option).

DON'T BUY

View on uranium has totally changed over the last couple of years. Energy transition is very difficult to do without something like uranium. Spot pricing probably less volatile than oil or gas. From time to time, disappoints on the quarter. Westinghouse servicing component gives them more vertical integration and cashflow stability, lowers risk profile. Go-to name, but valuation has come up so he's leery.

BUY
It's going to do well because uranium is going to do well. Interesting, because recent Westinghouse acquisition will smooth some of the volatility of uranium, gives them more of a consulting business.
COMMENT
Likes company and owns shares in company. Believes company will have strong growth going forward. Uranium mine in Saskatchewan set to be put back online (will double production). Global demand for Uranium rising. Recent announcement to buy Western House nuclear reactor very positive. Global ESG investors also buying shares.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Now in the markup phase, so if we're seeing signs of a bigger commodity cycle taking hold, then we're likely in the early stages and could have more upside. November and December historically strong seasonally for CCO. You can use softness over the coming months to add exposure.
BUY
Should be doing better than it is. Uranium should be doing extraordinarily well. Best way to generate reliable power that isn't going to run out anytime soon. Nuclear is the intelligent, reasonable option. Wind and solar are just not reliable. Nuclear has become safer. Should do well medium-long term.
BUY
Their order book continues to grow. Demand for nuclear power is growing. However, their Q3 was mixed and CCO is trading at a high 45x 2024. AlIt had a huge move in a tough market. He models 104% EPS growth. A good share price now.
TRADE
Owns some based on both aggressive and conservative models. Is in an uptrend but swings a lot. He trades in and out and may add to it. Look at the 5 and 10 year charts.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Dominant player, very well run, phenomenal assets. Good one if you want exposure to the space. Negative reaction to Westinghouse deal, but it gives them another pillar and a stable service side to their business, an operational benefit. Always worried about secondary supply of uranium that keeps a lid on prices. A green energy option. Wait for pullback, prices are very volatile.
PARTIAL BUY
He bought it earlier this year, because of the transition from fossil fuels to nuclear and green energy will only continue. Can be volatile, so don't buy a ton of shares, but hold this for 5-10 years.
BUY
Environmental concerns stalled uranium, but now issues in Europe are rekindling interest. Solar and wind won't meet all our requirements. Diversifying business by doing nuclear consulting, a great move. Should do well. Issue is it trades like a commodity.
TOP PICK
Not a high quality investment stock, only because intrinsic value lags stock price. Expansion of nuclear as a replacement for fossil fuels, virtually worldwide, is huge. Uranium is astonishingly efficient. Addition of Westinghouse is a nice adjunct. Yield is 0.37%. (Analysts’ price target is $43.76)
DON'T BUY
Tough to buy here at $31.66, when 2 years ago it was $12. He sees all the arguments for uranium and nuclear power, but he's not a believer. Model price is $25.02, downside of -21%. Needs earnings to motivate the stock. If there's a pullback, he'd sharpen his pencils for a possible long-volatility strategy.
WATCH
She's watching the uranium sector, because it could be part of this trend to renewable energy. Cameco announced it will buy Westinghouse, and did an equity issue to do this at a 15% discount to the market. That's why shares fell last week. They are few investments for uranium, so she's watching this.
