Uranium Market

Junior Mining Weekly (01/27/2010)
"The price of spot uranium fell for the second consecutive week with Ux Consulting reporting a $43.50/lb U3O8 price (down -$1.0/lb the week before), and TradeTech reporting a spot price of $42.50/lb U3O8 (down -$1.25/lb).

Long-term price indicators remained stable. Weakness in the uranium price appears to stem from sellers failing to convince buyers with discounted pricing in order to move material built-up during the December holidays, particularly in advance of further supply expected to enter the market next month. Prices may fall another $1.00 to $2.00 per lb or more in the coming weeks, before picking up again on the return of utility and non-utility purchasers to the market. Buying appears to be mostly discretionary, and volumes reported continue to be mostly average for this time of year."
