desresdude Report post Posted April 5, 2006 Uranium is a theme that has been touted by several investment websites (dailyreckoning, moneyweek). I agree with the view that uranium has a lot of upside given the soaring energy demands from China and the increase in oil prices. I caught this article in the BBC. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/4871000.stm Do you think it is worth getting investment exposure to Uranium. If so, would you know how to go about it?

walktothewater Report post Posted April 5, 2006 Exposure to uranium is very risky. Wear a lead suit. Uranium ETF (symbol "U") trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange, not sure if it trades elsewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

needmorespace Report post Posted April 7, 2006 Try Strathmore Minerals which is on the Toronto Venture Exchange or USEC Inc. which is on the NY Stock Exchange. Two very different companies so do some research if you're thinking of buying and don't just jump in. And if you're not sure how to buy US / Canadian stocks have a look at Internaxx which is a joint-venture brokerage from TD Waterhouse and Fortis (?) based in Luxembourg (but don't let that put you off).

Tim M Report post Posted April 15, 2006 Anyone know of any UK listed uranium miners? BHP Billiton, but you are a bit late, they have almost doubled in price in the past 12 months Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oracle Report post Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) BHP Billiton, but you are a bit late, they have almost doubled in price in the past 12 months BHP is about the purest uranium play you will get in the UK....they bought a big stake in WMC(aus) last year whao are a large uranium miner. other than that have a look on the toronto exchange...uranium resources inc don't look too bad value. other than that my other play would be tate+lyle(yes it's sugar!!!!!....bio-ethanol is kicking off and they are #1 sugar producer) Edited April 17, 2006 by oracle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
