Uranium stocks lag rising prices as capital flows weaken, Purepoint says
- Uranium’s long-term contract price reached a record US$ 97 a pound in October, up about 13% since January.
- The largest uranium miners ETF fell 22% through late October; seven larger producers and developers posted a median decline of 36%.
- Older contracts slowed producers’ gains from higher prices, with Cameco reporting a third-quarter realized price of US$ 65.78 a pound on October 30.
- Weak equity markets are delaying new mines, tightening future supply and reinforcing upward pressure on uranium prices.
- A stock recovery hinges on stronger utility contracting and returning investor capital, while slow purchasing and resource-sector outflows continue to weigh.
