Platinum and uranium are important raw materials in the energy sector

Platinum and uranium are important raw materials in the energy sector

Energy is the topic of the moment. Uranium is used to generate energy and platinum is used in fuel cells. Receive up-to-date information about the company directly via push notification

Now that uranium has been declared sustainable and uranium is back in the spotlight in the face of looming energy shortages, investors should not disregard this raw material. In the case of electric mobility with power supply, uranium is important as a feedstock for nuclear power plants. This is because worldwide electricity generation is likely to continue to be powered to a certain extent by nuclear energy for a long time to come. When it comes to climate change, nuclear energy scores highly, and the fact that it has regained its reputation can also be seen from the way the price of uranium has developed in recent times. Platinum is not important on the production side, but more in […]

Sprott Is Once Again Attractively Priced

Sprott Is Once Again Attractively Priced

Petmal Investment Thesis

Sprott (NYSE: SII ) is an investment company focused on natural resources, precious metals especially, but the company has also increased its uranium exposure lately. It is a stock I have owned for the better part of the last 5 years, even though I have liquidated my holdings a couple of times when the stock has gotten ahead of itself. I have written many articles about the company on Seeking Alpha in the past .
Figure 1

In 2022, the stock price has been slightly more correlated with uranium equities than precious metals miners, even if the two industries have traded relatively closely to each other. After the selloff in Q2 2022, the stock is once again trading at a very attractive level.

Cameco Stock: Worth the Risk?

Cameco Stock: Worth the Risk?

Cameco (TSX:CCO) (NYSE:CCJ) stock has gone through some insane ups and downs this year. Since the start of the year, shares of Cameco stock are up just 5.3%, which may not seem like much but is far better than how the market is faring. On top of that, shares are up 23% in the last year.

Yet despite this seemingly defensive choice, Cameco stock has a long history of being risky. And that certainly hasn’t disappeared even with shares at current levels. Cameco stock shrunk after the disaster in Fukushima in 2011. It remained down until recently when a new push for clean energy meant nuclear power plants would come back online. And those plants would need companies like Cameco.

The question is whether the situation will remain as it is for Cameco stock, and if so, for how long? Current headwinds

There are a number of headwinds that have caused […]
