Q: I am underweight in Materials sector and if I want to add some Uranium exposure. Do you think it has good upside for the near term after the recent pullback? Do you think an ETF like URA is better rather than individual companies like CCO and NXE

Q: Hi there, I own Cameco and intend to do so for the long term. Normally I like to follow one of your portfolios so I can buy / sell when you do and don't need to think too hard about it. But Cameco is not in that portfolio. Two questions (deduct credits accordingly please):

1. What are your thoughts on Cameco for a long-term holding generally?

2. What "user instructions" would you share for a person owning this stock in particular? Eg would you suggest taking profits now and again if/when it's up, because it's cyclical, etc.? One of your recent responses on a different question got me thinking about this.

Thanks very much.

Q: Hi 5i

CCO ($49.70) hit my radar due to the roughly 33% pullback since the high in May. A couple questions: How does TA look to you? I've had success buying around 30 RSI and CCO is near this.
-It looks like CCJ trades about 3 times the volume compared to CCO. I've noticed US investors are more prone to pounding a stock lower than deserved, and on the flip side, will also push companies way higher than they should go sometimes. Would you agree? Do you think this applies to the run up in May (went higher than it should) and now perhaps is lower than it should be?

Thanks,
Greg

Q: Many companies stand to benefit from the rise of nuclear energy. Is this a good time to invest (long term) in such companies? I am especially interested in the risk-reward profile of the following: Cameco(CCJ), Constellation Energy(CEG), Centrus Energy(LEU) and NexGen Energy(NEX). Are there others that you prefer (Canadian or U.S.)? Or do you believe an ETF focused on uranium/nuclear energy would be a better investment at this time? Thanks for your help. You provide a great service!

Q: hi all:

looking at the total nuclear complex from producers to manufacturing to servicing to repairing.............the whole industry now and into the future

besides the producers (i own cco and nxe) who do you see as potential investable companies over the next 5+ years

(in services, i own bwxt)

more specifically, i'm hearing more that small modular reactors will show good potential for our energy grid, who do you foresee as playing a role in building and servicing?

......and anything else you care to add on this theme!

thank you

Q: I have followed nuclear energy and Cameco for about three decades. It has been a tough investment environment for most of this time. We now are seeing a dynamic change in sentiment and planned expansion in this part of the energy sector. As an optimistic investor heavily invested in uranium stocks, I expect to have further capital gains as nuclear plants are built. However, it appears that some of the new modular reactors will use spent fuel rods as the source of uranium to run their reactors. Do you see this having a significantly negative impact on uranium demand going forward? Also, will the BEP’s Westinghouse purchase be material to the company in an expanding demand for nuclear energy?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: I understand that Cameco and the other major uranium producer have lowered their production estimates. As CCJ is locked into contracts they may not even be able to fulfill I don't see how they would benefit from uranium shortage. Would an investor be better looking at uranium as a commodity rather than buying a miner?

Q: I read a piece In the G&M by Rosie on the weekend re: nuclear energy as a potential outperformer. It mentioned the above firms as potential investments. I did a little homework and of the Cdn firms, the only 1's I thought worth investing in were the ETF and ATRL. I was unfamiliar with the U.S. firms . Can you shed some light on them please? I do have positions in Hammond Power, SMCI & Vertiv, which I'm pleased with and am thinking of adding to. Thanks for any light you can shed on this for me to enhance an informed decision.
