Daniel StrausGlobal X Uranium Index ETFHURA.TORISKYDec 06, 2023

Into the spotlight with the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Controversial, but performing very well. Exposure to raw commodity as well as producers. Compare to URA, which is well off its highs of a decade ago.

That's the risk of investing in something like uranium. You can catch a nice uptrend, but who knows what's going to happen in the next 10 years. Speculative play.

TOP PICK

Yes, he did pick this before today's Cameco announcement ;)  Great way to play the uranium sector. You could buy just CCO, but this is for those looking for more diverse exposure to the sector. Includes small companies, big companies, CCO, DML, and the Sprott physical product. Positive news for one company leads to an echo effect for others. Chart shows a breakout, and then a strong rally.

Now in a strong seasonal period for uranium. Such an interesting sector -- we know both the demand and the supply long term. Yet it moves around with all the volatility. We'll see spurts, consolidations, and pullbacks. Long term, a fantastic sector.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 07/23, Up 18%)

It gives exposure to large-, small-caps and actual uranium. Tailwinds are the shift to nuclear power and demand for power to power AI data centres.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

CCO is about 22% of the portfolio. Generally likes the sector. Rising demand for clean energy in most places around the world. Supply constraints, due to years of under-investment. Increasing government support. Some of the underlying names are getting pricey, look for a correction. Paying 99 bps for HURA. US version, URA, is a bit cheaper.

TOP PICK

Exposure to both stocks and the commodity. Substantial growth potential. Can't get to a zero-carbon world without nuclear. 

BUY

Base metals ETF?

Uranium prices have been on a tear. This holds small- and large-cap uranium stocks.

BUY

Great product to get exposure to Uranium and nuclear opportunity.
If bullish on Nuclear - great product.
Has lots of potential.
Good for long term investor. 

BUY

Bullish on long term outlook for Uranium.
Will require low carbon options for energy.
Good long term investment.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 01/21, Up 3%) It holds uranium producers and uranium itself. This industry is in a long-term uptrend, as society seeks nuclear power and less carbon-based power. Also, we're in a tight energy market. Continue to hold this.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Often trades at a discount to NAV. Longer-term play on uranium prices going back to highs of prior cycles.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 01/21, Down 5%) He often doesn't own the top pick ETF's but uses the underlying futures markets. There has been a significant under-investment in the uranium space. In a move to become carbon neutral, we will need more nuclear. This ETF gives exposure to both the companies that mine uranium as well as the price itself. It is volatile and is a longer term bear market scenario.
PARTIAL BUY
A couple months ago, said it was one of his favourite green play. In a friendly world where we need a lot of power, it is needed. Nuclear needs to be part of the transition to a greener world. Need to be patient.
BUY
Bullish on uranium and nuclear must be part of the greening of the world. There are some new investment funds and there are squeezes that are pushing the market higher. It has some legs. There could be some supply shortages if the demand side picks up. Japan and Germany may be looking at turning back on nuclear production.
TOP PICK
Chatted about this in March 2021. Society is moving to electricity and nothing produces it like nuclear without carbon. The ESG awareness is resurging and the shutdown of nuclear facilities is reversing. It has both large and small cap uranium exposure, as well as the price of uranium itself.
BUY
If we are serious about greening the world, nuclear must be part of the solution. In 10-20 years, we should see smaller nuclear reactors driving localized energy needs. Loves the sector. There are challenges with NIMB which needs to be overcome.
