RE:RE:While I'm tickled pink at the SP increase in all my I'm with you there Charlie.. the fundamentals for U are far too weighted in favour of a continuation in price increase for years to come.. anyone, even sprott, shorting would be like going against the flow.. and why would they do that anyway? surely makes far more sense to go with the flow and milk it as much as possible.. which I have no doubt is the sprott plan over next few years at least.

However, we are involved in a commodity that is fast tracking to add balance to the supply/demand status that has a deficiency in production to meet present demand, it also has been selling at a 50% discount to the cost of production. I.e.. $30 per pound vs, 60$.
Even when Uranium touches $60 a pound. there will not be any new generation of the commodity as there has been almost zero new production in the past 10 years and most of the advance deposits have been placed on care and maintenance.
It would be insane for anyone to take any form of a short until Uranium hits well past $100 lb. IMO.
We should have a very pleasant and profitable run until the shorts come out of the woodwork.

Say somebody at Sprott decided they could also make money on the way DOWN and decided to sell all this uranium while shorting the entire industry.
