The uranium market is in structural supply/demand deficit despite nuclear energy being an essential and growing form of clean energy.
Financial players and a utility contracting cycle mark near-term catalysts.
I expect both physical uranium and uranium producer baskets to aggressively outperform over the coming 1-3+ years.
Financial players significantly escalated their role in the uranium market, in particular, the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (OTCPK:SRUUF). This trust exists to provide investors exposure to physical uranium, but in so doing, they take and sequester physical pounds from the market. Note that Yellow Cake plc (OTCPK:YLLXF) is a similar trust for UK based investors, although it is much less active in purchasing uranium.
