Spot Uranium Bottoming?
FNArena News - May 06 2008

By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck

Is this bottom of the price correction for spot uranium? Listed uranium stocks such as Paladin (PDN) and Energy Resources of Australia ((ERA)) posted a solid rally on the Australian share market yesterday, only to give some of these gains back today. No doubt yesterday's rally was once more inspired by investors taking a positive view on market developments and anticipating a bottoming of the spot uranium price.

Industry consultant TradeTech's latest assessments suggest this time these speculations might prove to be correct with the consultant signaling sellers seem less eager to continue lowering their prices in order to conclude a deal, while buyers seem to be readying themselves for an active return into the market.

This should keep spot uranium prices from falling further, to say the least.

No new deals were recorded, not in the spot market and not in the longer term end of the market. Thus TradeTech's weekly spot has remained at US$65/lb and its recently lowered long term price indicator at US$90/lb.



Our archive tells no lies. FNArena warned its readers well before the price of crude oil peaked in 2008 the speculator bubble would deflate with devastating consequences for those holding oil company shares. In August we warned the most severe correction in modern history was forthcoming for natural resources. In 2007 we warned the problem with US subprime mortgages would prove much bigger than experts and media were anticipating (among other things).
