By John Cornford How to invest for what most observers think is an inevitable uranium price recovery in the next few years is not an easy question to answer. Given the long decline in the uranium price after Fukushima, its not surprising that practically all companies exposed to it – miners as well as producer/refiners – have seen similar declines in their shares. Some countries have banned uranium mining altogether as well as nuclear generation, causing some smaller explorers to go bust. An important point to note about the 'published' price for uranium is that it is a 'spot' price referring only to intermittent deals in the market, usually on behalf of users looking to fill in gaps in their requirement. Nuclear generators have to ensure their supplies many years ahead, so make deals that are hardly ever disclosed, at prices probably well above any 'spot' price, which can't therefore be much of a guide to underlying movements in the market.
