Commentary3 

 

 

The Fund's NAV rose 13.6% in October, broadly in line with the Solactive Uranium Pure Play Index and ahead of the Sprott Uranium Mining ETF, which limits investments to equities allocating at least 50% of assets toward uranium mining, that returned 7% in sterling terms over the month. The ETF limits investments to equities allocating at least 50% of assets toward uranium resource exploration or development.

 

 The UO spot price recovered from a mid-month dip to close October at $82.13/lb, up 0.5%. The most significant development was the US announcement of $80bn in funding for nuclear reactor construction. Under an agreement with Westinghouse (owned by Brookfield and Cameco), the US government will arrange financing and secure permits for AP-1000 reactor development in exchange for a 20% share of future profits and a potential future listing of Westinghouse. Additionally, Japan agreed to participate in funding as part of its trade agreement with the US, signalling a possible commitment of $330bn to support US infrastructure development.

 

Sector sentiment was further boosted by the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust, which acquired approximately 1.2 Mlbs of uranium following its recent equity issuance. This helped lift prices from a mid-month low of $76/lb, driving strong equity performance.

 

Looking ahead, uranium mining is emerging as the key bottleneck in the reinvestment cycle. While funding has focused on reactors, enrichment, and conversion capacity, little has been directed toward mining-the least flexible part of the fuel cycle. Greenfield projects face lengthy timelines for discovery, drilling, permitting, and construction, often exceeding a decade. Expanding conversion and enrichment capacity without addressing raw UO supply risks creating even tighter markets.

 

 

 Nexgen was a key contributor to Fund performance, with its share price rising nearly 12% in sterling terms ahead of the first-stage permit hearing scheduled for mid-November, followed by a second phase in February. Additional strong gains came from Energy Fuels and Paladin, which advanced 37% and 17%, respectively, in sterling terms.
