Lobo Tiggre: “Uranium is Happening Now”

INN went live for the first time at this year’s PDAC, speaking with Lobo Tiggre, CEO of Louis James LLC, on the first day of the show.

Tiggre, who has been a staunch believer in the future of uranium as an in-demand global energy fuel, reaffirmed his stance that uranium is still on its way up.

“I do think uranium’s time has come,” he explained, going on to say that investors should take advantage of broad market volatility to get into the uranium sector.

Mickey Fulp: Now is “Absolutely” the Time for Uranium

Self-professed contrarian Mercenary Geologist Mickey Fulp remains optimistic about the future of the uranium sector, even though mild volatility has kept spot prices hovering at or below US$29 per pound.

“I bought all my uranium stocks quite awhile ago,” he said. “I can’t tell you when it’s going to come, but there will be a uranium shortage, there will be great demand, the price will go up and stocks are very dependent on the spot price.”

Nick Carter: Section 232 Decision Will Bring Clarity on Uranium Prices

At PDAC, Nick Carter of UxC said he expects uranium prices to “trend a little bit higher” in 2019.

However, he said, “it’s really going to depend, because it’s kind of a little bit of a complicated market with Section 232 initiated by two US producers in the interest of national security.”

Leigh Curyer of NexGen: Section 232, Uranium Demand and What’s Next

INN caught up with Leigh Curyer, CEO and director of NexGen Energy (TSX:NXE,NYSE:NXE), at PDAC to discuss the current uranium market, mining in Saskatchewan and what’s on the horizon for 2019.
