Understanding Uranium as an Investment

The uranium market presents a unique investment opportunity, particularly since it has faced significant declines in recent years, making it a contrarian play. Starting as a technical trader, the speaker transitioned to understanding the fundamentals of uranium and identified its potential when prices were at a low of $18 per pound in late 2016. The scenario at that time was characterized by a massive oversupply in the market, driven by excess production and a decline in demand due to geopolitical events, notably the Fukushima incident. This led to an overall decline in uranium prices, while the supply remained robust, presenting a backdrop for future recovery as the market began its gradual turnaround.
