Episode notes
Uranium's Supply-Demand Dynamics
- Uranium is a slow-reacting commodity with supply and demand imbalances that cause volatile price swings.
- Nuclear energy is gaining support as a green energy source, leading to a potential multi-decade growth in uranium demand.
Sprott Trust's Market Influence
- The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust holds physical uranium and is a safe way to gain exposure to uranium prices.
- They actively issue shares at a premium to buy uranium and hold it indefinitely, influencing the spot market significantly.
Why Utilities Delay Uranium Purchasing
- Nuclear reactors have been buying less uranium than they consume due to abundant cheap uranium supply available historically.
- Utilities have had no incentive to replenish inventories at higher prices until recently when supply shortage looms.
