Unloved since Fukushima, uranium is hot again for miners

Unloved since Fukushima, uranium is hot again for miners

View of Dampierre nuclear power plant (Stock Image) Uranium miners are racing to revive projects mothballed after the Fukushima disaster more than a decade ago, spurred by renewed demand for nuclear energy and a leap in yellowcake prices after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Spot prices for uranium have doubled from lows of $28 per pound last year to $64 in April, sparking the rush on projects set aside after a 2011 earthquake and tsunami crippled Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant.

“Things are moving very quickly in our industry, and we’re seeing countries and companies turn to nuclear with an appetite that I’m not sure I’ve ever seen in my four decades in this business,” Tim Gitzel, CEO of Canada’s Cameco, which mothballed four of its mines after Fukushima, said on a May 5 earnings call.

Uranium prices began to rise in mid-2021 as several countries seeking to limit climate change said they […]

Uranium inventories are scarily low – here’s what that means for energy security, prices and new projects

US nuclear utilities have only 16 months of inventory, and the EU has only two years’ worth

The International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) Uranium Production Specialist Dr Adrienne Hanly has flagged that uranium inventories are precariously low.At the recent World Nuclear Fuel Cycle conference in London, Dr Hanly said uranium fuel inventory levels for US nuclear utilities are at just 16 months of requirements – below recommended 2+ years minimum.And that US utilities may have limited capability to independently manage a protracted supply disruption.Compounding this, EU stocks on aggregate equate to two years’ supply, but many individual utilities fall far short of this ESA-prescribed benchmark.

Are Yellow Cake Shares, YCA, Undervalued At the Current Uranium Price?

Key points:

There’s a reasonable argument that Yellow Cake is currently undervalued

There’s another, equally valid, that they’re not

Trading positions depend upon which argument is believed Yellow Cake (LON: YCA) shares are an oddity really. For the company itself, YCA, doesn’t particularly do anything. But then that’s rather the point of the company itself, not to do anything but simply to be.The background here is that yellow cake is the traded form of uranium. This isn’t what is put into reactors, it’s earlier in the process than that. It’s actually the output from the normal mining and processing system. This is then what is traded around within the nuclear business. It’s only once an actual reactor is ready for refueling that the yellow cake (uranium oxides) is sent through the isotopic separation plant to become actual reactor fuel. Different reactors require different styles of fuel, but all of […]

Why Uranium Stocks Keep Dropping

Why Uranium Stocks Keep Dropping

Uranium is getting cheaper. So are uranium stocks.

What happened

Uranium mining stocks were looking radioactive in Wednesday afternoon trading — in a bad way, as in, investors were running away from them. At the close of the session, Denison Mines ( DNN -7.56%) was down 7.6%, Energy Fuels ( UUUU -9.82%) was down 9.8%, and Uranium Energy ( UEC -9.92%) was down 9.9%.

But you probably shouldn’t be surprised. Image source: Getty Images.

According to a report just out from the uranium experts at Ocean Wall, uranium prices have actually fallen as far as $48 a pound today, and are now at their […]

Arizona’s Havasupai push back as interest in nearby uranium mine grows

Coverage of tribal natural resources is supported in part by Catena Foundation Havasupai tribal councilman Stuart Chavez is opposed to the Pinyon Plain Mine.

Best Penny Stocks to Buy as May Ends? 3 to Watch Right Now

3 Penny Stocks to Watch as May Comes to an End

With another rough day of trading penny stocks and blue chips, there is a lot for investors to understand. Right now, investors need to consider what is going on in the stock market and how to take advantage.

In 2022, we have three factors at play. The first two are rising interest rates and climbing inflation. These have been the largest factors for the bearish trading patterns of the stock market in the past few weeks. And, they are likely going to continue being the largest reasons for market momentum moving forward. The last factor in this is the effects of geopolitical tensions on the world economy. While Ukraine is not causing havoc on the U.S. economy like it had, it is still causing shifts in pricing for energy globally.

At the end of the day, buying and selling […]

Why These 3 Uranium Stocks Jumped More Than 10% Today

New reports came out recently of utilities signing contracts to buy uranium at high prices.

What happened

Uranium stocks were back on the rise Tuesday after several down weeks, with names across the sector surging as the session progressed. Here’s how much the top-performing uranium stocks had rallied at their highest points in the trading day:

Uranium prices have dropped in recent weeks, and they aren’t ticking upward yet. So why were uranium stocks starting to rebound? Three reasons: investor sentiment, fossil fuels, and encouraging activity in the crucial uranium contract market. So what Uranium prices are currently hovering near two-month lows, according to data from TradingEconomics.com.

Sprott Physical Uranium Trust Benefits From Inelasticity Of Nuclear To Fuel Costs

Sprott Physical Uranium Trust Benefits From Inelasticity Of Nuclear To Fuel Costs

Nikolay Chekalin/iStock via Getty Images Published on the Value Lab 13/5/22

Sprott Physical Uranium Trust ( OTCPK:SRUUF ) is a Canada-listed fund that owns uranium, and is a way for investors to bet on uranium spot prices. It recently tried to list in the U.S. but failed , and while that is a bit of discussion in and of itself on the marketability of the issue, we are going to focus on the fundamentals of uranium, and why uranium is an asset that investors should consider especially as prices have retreated. Nuclear could be a megatrend, and demand destruction doesn’t exist in nuclear power. Getting it right on the strategic shift away from a total renewable focus can mean excellent returns for investors. Strategic Note

A key development that we have seen as a consequence of the Ukraine war is that renewable energy focus has rendered many countries vulnerable […]
