$UUUU: Uranium producer energy fuels provides an opportunity

Energy Fuels is the largest US miner of uranium. It produces uranium both in form of triuranium octoxide and uranium hexafluoride. Besides the core business, the secondary products of Energy Fuels are rare earth elements and vanadium. Founded in 2006, the company has its headquarters in Lakewood, Colorado. One can trade it under the ticker $UUUU at the New York Stock Exchange. Investors in shares of the mining company are participating, therefore, in the company success story on the one hand and in the price development of the uranium commodity on the other.

Currently, we see the ongoing price appreciation within the energy commodities like oil, gas, coal and others. Consequently, uranium is expected to turn higher after 13 years of weak prices as well. Besides the market correlation in the energy group, the pattern of $UUUU shows a turn higher after 13 years of depressed prices as well. We have discussed the impulsive bullish behavior in the initial article from March 2021. Now, investors in the energy sector obtain a second chance to enter the uranium mining industry while buying a pullback in the largest uranium mining company of US.
