In this article, we are going to discuss the energy stocks that are gaining the most this week.
The uranium mining stocks were among the top gainers this week after the Toronto-based asset manager Sprott announced that its Sprott Physical Uranium Trust would spend $200 million to buy an estimated 2.6 million pounds of physical uranium based on current spot prices.
This sent the global price of uranium soaring, with the nuclear fuel currently hovering around the $74.8 per pound mark, up by more than 7% over the last week. This is the highest price level uranium has achieved so far this year, as traders pile into the spot market to snap up the commodity before Sprott’s buying spree next week.
The purchase comes amid a reinvigorated interest by the Trump administration to quadruple America’s nuclear energy capacity by easing the regulatory process on approvals for new reactors and strengthening fuel supply chains. The President’s executive order also aims to promote the domestic mining and enrichment of uranium and reduce reliance on imports from Russia and China, given the current geopolitical landscape.
