Wondering why the price of uranium has skyrocketed by 50% since mid-summer? Gwen Preston has the answers! In this video, she delves into the uranium market, decoding the complexities and offering invaluable insights on how you can leverage this boom for potential gains.

“What matters is that all of these things have created a real supply shortage and there’s no easy answer to mining more pounds of uranium so utilities will have to do two things first they will fight for the pounds available today and second they will focus on long-term contracts to secure pounds for tomorrow.”

Supply and Demand: The price of uranium is heavily influenced by supply and demand dynamics. If there’s an increase in demand for nuclear energy or a decrease in uranium production, it can drive prices higher.

Geopolitical Factors: Political instability in uranium-producing regions or changes in government policies can affect uranium supply, leading to price fluctuations.

Investor Sentiment: The resource sector, including uranium, is influenced by investor sentiment. Positive sentiment, increased investment, or speculation can drive prices up.

Nuclear Energy Policies: Government policies related to nuclear energy and carbon emissions can impact uranium demand. A shift towards nuclear energy as a clean energy source can drive demand for uranium.

Currency Exchange Rates: Since uranium is often traded internationally, changes in currency exchange rates can affect its price.
