There are several factors pointing to an optimistic outlook for uranium prices, and by extension uranium miners. The increasing need for energy security, the transition to green energy, and the recent embracement of nuclear energy as a viable alternative to fossil fuels and solar/wind points to increasing demand for uranium in the coming years. On the other side of this, there are supply-side constraints after years of underinvestment and low prices. Coupled together, this creates a favorable environment for physical uranium prices, and by extension uranium producers.
