came co....lol.

Well  Cameco, i just saw a podcast that says that CAME CO is a very bad uranium investment with a turbo charged spot  uranium price. It seem that cameco is booked up (maybe to booked up) at a very low price ,   it is like they have HEDGED UP there future, and  they might have sold to much (like they have so far at this said LOW PRICE)  then  they will have to use what profit that they are makeing to buy and cover there contract in the SPOT MARKET,   like they have been doing.                                                                      PS,   WOAH   TO   CCO,  and it`s shareholders.   this will be interesting to see.                                     PSS,  in a skyrocketing term and spot price,  you do not want to hedge at the bottom,imo. and his.

They have stated a few months ago that they still believe in that strategy and were scoffing at companies that would not contract as they do. Amir has stated that UEC is unhedged, but in the future when conditions warrant they will review their ...more

Cameco is flawed, to long a wait to react to a bull market in Uranium.   Now with coming up short year after year, they will have to buy on spot at much higher prices than their contracts are written.   Sure seems like a flawed business approach.   What they could do is buy a near term producer, this would help them shore up reserves that are needed going forward.   Them being ...more

In Cameco’s defense their  hedging strategy got them through a 30 year bear market as the worlds second largest Pure Play Uranium company.
