Summary

Because uranium is a non-cyclical commodity, Cameco and other uranium miners did alright last year despite all the upheaval.

Between utilities drawing down their nuclear fuel stockpiles and new reactors being built around the world, global mined uranium demand is set to increase significantly in coming years.

In anticipation of higher demand going forward, the spot uranium price did bottom half a decade ago. Uranium prices need to go much higher in order to stimulate more production. Cameco is set to benefit from higher prices, given its ample economic reserves, an ability to produce uranium profitably, as well as its capacity to increase mined production in response to higher prices. When I first mentioned that uranium prices may have bottomed half a decade ago, there were many people who doubted that it could happen. I did buy some Cameco (NYSE: CCJ ) stock soon after I called what […]

The North Shore Global Uranium Mining ETF [URNM] could have plenty of fuel for growth in 2021 as countries go nuclear. The fund was up 24.6% year-to-date at $53.45 on 5. Furthermore, it hit an intraday high of $61.67 on 17 February.

The North Shore Global Uranium Mining ETF has kept up the positive momentum from 2020 when it soared 68.4%. Despite the number of nuclear reactor operating globally falling to a 30-year low in July last year, the fund had a strong performance.

According to the World Nuclear Industry Status Report, total operating nuclear capacity fell 2.2% year-over-year to 362 gigawatts by mid-2020. The slide was mainly because there were fewer nuclear reactors in operation, but COVID-19 production disruptions at uranium mines have also played a part.

The drop in supply has led to higher uranium prices and the spot price of the commodity climbed 20.5% in 2020, according to data […]

TSX-V-listed GoviEx Uranium reports that, with nuclear energy having shown resilience in 2020, the spot uranium price has been in a “gentle uptrend” for the last four years after having reached its cyclical low of $18/lb of U 3 O 8 in December 2016.

The company notes that despite 2020 having been strongly dominated by the Covid-19 pandemic, the company nonetheless adapted to this challenging environment and made progress by improving its financial position, advancing its pipeline of uranium mine development plans, specifically in Niger, and beginning the assessment of “compelling” gold prospects in Mali. In addition, GoviEx says the positive momentum of its activities in 2020 has continued into this year.

During 2020, the spot uranium price rose from $25/lb at the start of the year to $30/lb at the end – a 20% increase. GoviEx states that the increase in prices is being supported by progressively stronger demand for […]

There’s no arguing with the numbers.

The past year (and then some) has seen the leading ASX uranium shares truly light up.

The Paladin Energy Ltd (ASX: PDN) share price, for example, is up 415% over the past 12 months. ASX uranium miner Deep Yellow Ltd (ASX: DYL) ’s share price is up 246% over that same time.

Things have continued apace in 2021, with Deep Yellow shares up 24% in the calendar year and Paladin shares up 54%.That more than handily outpaces the one-year 7% gains posted by the broader All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO), not to mention the 0.4% loss on the All Ords so far in 2021.But the run higher for ASX uranium shares like these could only just be getting started. Why ASX uranium shares may have a bright future Australia may not opt to use uranium for its own power sources. Though Australia – both fortuitously and […]

Appia Energy Corp. ‘s (CSE: API | OTCQB: APAAF) (‘Appia’) stock price has been on a tremendous run the past year, up 364%, as shown below. Today I take a look at why the stock has done so well, and what’s next for Appia Energy, potentially soon to be renamed Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp. (retaining the same stock tickers).

Appia Energy Corp. 1 year stock price performance Source

A strategic uranium reserve has no place in Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

(Corey Robinson | Tribune file photo) Protesters from White Mesa, Utah, march against the White Mesa Mill, the last conventional uranium mill still operating in the U.S. on May 14, 2017.

In late December, as Congress debated how much to spend on COVID-19 relief for Americans struggling to make ends meet, something else was flying under the radar that has serious implications for Utah’s clean water and public health.

In the same package that funded $600 stimulus checks hid a sizable handout for the uranium industry that could pad the pockets of Energy Fuels Resources, the uranium company that has already made millions by welcoming low-level radioactive waste to its White Mesa uranium mill in southeastern Utah.Congress appropriated $75 million to start a “strategic uranium reserve.” This means using your taxpayer dollars to pay uranium companies above-market […]

What happened

Shares of uranium company Denison Mines (NYSEMKT: DNN) soared a whopping 59.6% in the month of February, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence . That handily outran the Global X Uranium ETF ‘s (NYSEMKT: URA) 20.5% gain in the month, suggesting there was more to Denison’s rally than just industry-specific news. So what

Denison Mines, and several other uranium stocks , soared on the very first day of February after Bank of America speculated that global demand for uranium could be as much as 26 million pounds more if the U.S. postponed closure of its aging nuclear plants due 2021 to 2030. Nuclear reactors run on uranium fuel.

By the second week of February, Denison shares were rallying to dizzying heights backed by several developments. To start, on Feb. 8, Denison approved a $24 million budget for 2021 to resume the environmental assessment process at […]

Summary

Bannerman’s share price has recently tripled, but this is not backed by fundamental value.

The Etango flagship project has a breakeven price of $46/pound, and this excludes project financing expenses.

Bannerman could be seen as a call option on a high double-digit uranium price, but in that scenario, you may as well buy any other uranium company out there. At the current valuation, Bannerman’s market capitalization may have gotten ahead of itself, and I’m not interested in a long position at this time. Looking for a helping hand in the market? Members of European Small-Cap Ideas get exclusive ideas and guidance to navigate any climate.
