Uranium provider Cameco has calculated an end-of-June spot price of $78.50 for uranium—a substantial jump from the $71.55 the previous month. Cameco continues to list a long-term price of $80.00, a price that has remained unchanged since February.

The current bull market for uranium seems to be heating up. “Fundamentals are strong, and new political incentives are in place to spur nuclear development,” according to an article on the Proactive Investors website, which also noted that the uranium supply “will need to increase significantly to meet the market’s needs if nuclear is to become a key source of energy in the global push to reduce carbon emissions.”
