The Copper Mountain Uranium Project is held by Rush through its wholly owned subsidiary, Rush Uranium […]

Here’s Why Uranium Energy (UEC) is Poised for a Turnaround After Losing -22.88% in 4 Weeks

A downtrend has been apparent in Uranium Energy (UEC) lately with too much selling pressure. The stock has declined 22.9% over the past four weeks. However, given the fact that it is now in oversold territory and Wall Street analysts are majorly in agreement about the company’s ability to report better earnings than they predicted earlier, the stock could be due for a turnaround.

Guide to Identifying Oversold Stocks

We use Relative Strength Index (RSI), one of the most commonly used technical indicators, for spotting whether a stock is oversold. This is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements.

RSI oscillates between zero and 100. Usually, a stock is considered oversold when its RSI reading falls below 30.Technically, every stock oscillates between being overbought and oversold irrespective of the quality of their fundamentals. And the beauty of RSI is that it helps you quickly and […]

Terra Uranium active in Athabasca Basin with winter RC drill core now at the lab; diamond drilling on horizon

Night skies over Pasfield Lake. Terra Uranium Ltd (ASX:T92) has wrapped up the winter reverse circulation (RC) drilling stage of its ongoing maiden exploration program seeking major uranium deposits under cover at the 100%-owned Pasfield and Parker projects in Canada.

The company holds a 100% interest in 22 claims spanning 1,008 square kilometres forming the HawkRock Project, Parker Lake Project and Pasfield Lake Project in the Cable Bay Shear Zone (CBSZ) on the eastern side of the uranium-rich Athabasca Basin, north-eastern Saskatchewan, Canada.

The projects are roughly 80 kilometres to the west of multiple operating large uranium mills, mines and known deposits.

The CBSZ is a major reactivated structural zone with known uranium mineralisation. There has been limited exploration in the area, though, as the basin sediment cover is thicker than for the known deposits immediately to the east. Winter drilling program T92 drilled 29 RC holes at the two projects for […]

Uranium Energy Insiders Snap Up Shares Discounted by Kerrisdale Short Report Selling Pressure

Shares of Uranium Energy Corporation ( US:UEC ) fell more than 17% last week, with selling pressure fueled by short seller Kerrisdale Capital’s Thursday disclosure of its short position in the company.

Three company officers took advantage of the share price weakness, buying stock and helping recover some investor confidence. Shares were 1.5% higher in extended trading on Friday evening. These transactions were initially spotted on Fintel’s insider trading tracker.

According to Kerrisdale, UEC has failed to capitalize on spikes in uranium prices during the last two bull markets. Furthermore, the short seller claims that UEC’s deposits are unprofitable at current prices, with none of the company’s stated 140 million pounds of estimated uranium resources in the United States being viable for mining. Kerrisdale estimates that UEC’s underlying assets are worth just over $350 million, which is around 30% of its current market cap.

Promotional Payments Kerrisdale also called out […]

Why Uranium Energy Stock Keeps Going Down

What happened

Uranium Energy (NYSEMKT: UEC) stock is down 44% over the past year — and half of that loss happened just this week ! Shares of the uranium mining company suffered a short attack yesterday when Kerrisdale Capital published a report declaring the stock itself (and not just its products) "radioactive."

Uranium Energy shares tumbled nearly 15% on the news yesterday, and fell another 13% earlier this morning — but have since clawed back at least some of today’s losses, and are now down only 5.7% as of 11:30 a.m. ET. So what

So what exactly is it that Kerrisdale doesn’t like about Uranium Energy stock? A couple of things, actually.First and foremost is the fact that Kerrisdale doesn’t think this uranium miner actually does much mining at all — nor can it mine, profitably. Although UEC reported $23 million in sales last year, and $105 million through the […]

China Uranium Resource Import Report 2023-2032: Rapid Growth of Nuclear Power in the Region Bolsters Demand

DUBLIN, March 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The "Research Report on China’s Uranium Resource Import 2023-2032" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering. Research and Markets Logo In recent years, China has seen rapid development of nuclear power. By the end of 2022, China had 53 commercial nuclear power units in operation, with a total installed capacity of 55.6 million kilowatts. There are 23 nuclear power units under construction, with a total installed capacity of 24.19 million kilowatts. China’s installed capacity of nuclear power generation units under construction has remained the world’s largest for many years.

As China’s installed nuclear power capacity rises, so does the country’s demand for uranium resources. Since China’s indigenous uranium resources are poor, with total reserves of no more than 200,000 tons and high mining costs, China needs to import large amounts of uranium resources every year.

In 2021, China’s imports of uranium resources reached 13,613.9 tons, […]

Small Modular Reactors Spark Interest as Nuclear Energy and Uranium Gain Stea​m

Sentiment toward nuclear energy continues to improve, and experts believe SMRs will play an important role in the industry’s future.

As nuclear energy and uranium continue to attract renewed attention from both investors and the general public, technological advances are bringing small modular reactors (SMRs) to the forefront.

SMRs vary in size and power, but are essentially smaller-scale versions of traditional nuclear reactors. Although it’s still early days, they’ve been praised by industry insiders for various reasons , including their size and relative simplicity.

During the latest Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada ( PDAC ) convention, several uranium companies and expert voices highlighted SMRs as a key component of the market moving forward. They also discussed the moment nuclear energy is having in the eyes of investors, and shared their thoughts on what’s needed to move the industry forward. Nuclear energy sentiment strong on PDAC floor “I think […]

Decarbonization is turning to nuclear energy, which will propel uranium prices higher – Scott Melbye

Get all the essential market news and expert opinions in one place with our daily newsletter. Receive a comprehensive recap of the day’s top stories directly to your inbox. Sign up here! ( Kitco News ) – The Russia-Ukraine conflict has made energy security a major priority for the United States and Europe, and it’s supporting new investment and development in the nuclear energy sector and increased demand for uranium, according to Scott Melbye, Executive VP of Uranium Energy Corporation and President of the Uranium Producers of America.

“I think Russia-Ukraine really was a wake-up call globally, that energy security really is national security,” he said. “Germany has really stepped in it over the last 10-15 years, moving to this ‘energiewende’ energy policy, which was to move away from fossil fuels, move away from nuclear energy, and rely 100 percent on renewables. Instead what it’s resulted in are electricity prices […]

Azincourt Energy (AAZ.V) at key support as uranium attempts to bounce

In the past two weeks, I have notified readers in my weekly uranium sector round ups that the uranium price was displaying bearish reversal patterns. This has played out with not just uranium taking a dump, but energy as a whole.

Uranium is now at an important technical zone. The Sprott Uranium Physical Trust confirmed a head and shoulders reversal pattern with a breakdown below $16.40. We are seeing a bounce, but I suspect this will lead to a lower high taking us down one more leg to the support at the $14.50 zone. However the Global X Uranium ETF, URA, might have some positives for uranium bulls. This ETF sold off hard and has hit its support target at the $18.00 zone. In the past two trading days, we have seen daily candles with large wicks. This indicates that there are buyers here.

Major support zones tend to be the […]

Sanctions Could End US Uranium Imports from Russia – But There Are Other Options

Vancouver, BC –News Direct– MarketJar Pixabay Russia’s state-owned nuclear power conglomerate, Rosatom, is suspected of supplying the Russian arms industry with components, technology, and raw materials for missile fuel. The military supplies were delivered to more than a half-dozen major weapon manufacturers, assisting Moscow’s ongoing assault on Ukraine. 1

This has increased the possibility that the US, and perhaps the European Union, will impose sanctions on Rosatom, which exports uranium for use in nuclear reactors.

The US is heavily reliant on Russian nuclear fuel, but American companies have some options if Rosatom is faced with sanctions.

After the Cold War ended, US and Russian leaders agreed that Russia would dismantle some of its nuclear weapons, downgrade the uranium and send it to the US to be repurposed and used in civilian nuclear reactors in what was known as the megaton to megawatt program. Over the course of the 20-year program, which […]

Uranium Royalty: Cash Burn Continues, But Valuation Coming Around
