Spot Uranium Remains Under Downward Pressure
FNArena News - February 23 2010

By Rudi Filapek-Vandyck

Spot uranium prices continue their descent as buyers seem in no hurry and with sellers offering ever more aggressive price cuts to get deals done. The past week, ending Friday, saw a few deals being concluded, but also a further cut to TradeTech's weekly price benchmark.

TradeTech's spot price indicator has now fallen to US$41.75/lb, US25c lower than at the end of the previous week.

The industry consultant remains adamant in its market assessment: buyers are under no pressure to buy, and thus the willingness by sellers to get rid of their product at ever lower prices continues to dominate the market at this stage.

TradeTech's mid-term price indicator has remained unchanged at US$50/lb, its longer term price indicator has remained unchanged at US$60/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).
