Why These Energy Stocks are Losing This Week

In this article, we are going to discuss the energy stocks that are losing this week.

While the S&P Energy Index managed to outperform the S&P 500 Index over the last week, some sectors have lagged behind, with uranium being one of them. Prices of the nuclear fuel have fallen by over 7% since October 31, primarily due to an improved supply outlook that outweighed speculative bets on nuclear power. Kazatomprom, the largest uranium producer in the world, reported a 33% increase in exports in Q3, with total output also growing by 10%, thus easing supply concerns.

That said, the American nuclear energy sector received a significant boost this week when the United States successfully negotiated a nuclear technology-sharing deal with Saudi Arabia, potentially paving the way for American companies to build reactors in the kingdom.

After hitting a multi-year high last week, natural gas prices have seen some correction recently, with gas futures falling by over 5% as short-term mild weather eased immediate heating demand.

10. Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY)

Share Price Decline Between Nov. 11 – Nov. 18: 7.33%

Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY) engages in the exploration and production of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids in the United States, with activities focused in Texas and the Rocky Mountain region.

Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY) faced a target revision on November 18 when Piper Sandler analyst Mark Lear lowered the stock’s price target from $15 to $13, while keeping an ‘Overweight’ rating on its shares. The change forms part of the analyst firm updating its exploration and production models following the Q3 reports. While the sector posted encouraging results, the analyst believes that the oil macro environment ‘still doesn’t feel great’.

It is worth noting that Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY) gained over 20% earlier this month after posting results for its third quarter, with the company’s adjusted EPS of $0.35 topping expectations by $0.04. Revenue also grew by 16.3% YoY to $866 million. Moreover, a Bloomberg report indicated that the company has agreed to sell its drilling portfolio in the US Rocky Mountain region for over $400 million, allowing it to solidify its balance sheet and focus on its core acreage in the Eagle Ford and Uinta basins. So the recent dip in share price could also be due to investors booking their profits.

9. Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ)

Share Price Decline Between Nov. 11 – Nov. 18: 9.97%

Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ) is one of the largest global providers of uranium fuel to power the ongoing nuclear energy renaissance.

Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ) took a hit earlier this month when it announced results for its Q3, with the company’s earnings and revenue both falling below forecasts. The uranium provider’s revenue also dipped by over 16% during the quarter, primarily due to delays at its flagship McArthur River and Key Lake facilities. As a result, the company also posted lower production guidance for this year, with a ceiling of 20 million pounds.

On November 13, RBC Capital trimmed its price target for Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ) from C$160 to C$150, but kept an ‘Outperform’ rating on its shares. The update comes on the back of slightly higher uranium and fuel services costs.

Cameco Corporation (NYSE:CCJ) has also come under pressure due to a recent decline in the prices of the nuclear fuel, with uranium futures falling by over 7% since October 31.
