Spot Uranium at $85 Indicates Strength as URA Rebounds From $50

Uranium markets regained a sense of stability, with the spot prices remaining at high levels, with uranium-related stocks recovering.

Uranium Equities Recaptured as Breadth Turns Positive

Recently, X analyst John Quakes said that there was a general recovery of the uranium mining stock based on a deep pullback. His chart indicated that most of the uranium-related equities and ETFs were trading in a favorable position. Earnings have been recorded between minor increases up to robust double-digit growths, showing enhanced engagement in the market.

The recovery was spread among the producers, developers, and exploration companies. Rebounds were recorded by large-cap miners and mid-tier firms. A number of uranium-oriented ETFs and trust funds were trading side by side with equities. This alignment was the indication of capital rotation in the uranium value chain as opposed to the selective positioning.

Quakes also noted better conditions of nuclear fuel supply and demand than they had a week earlier. He said that the contract floor price of U₃O₈ was at its highest point in 18 years.

Not all stocks moved higher. Only a handful of names transacted flat or slightly down. This dispersion was not the issue of the industry but the specifics of the companies. The general market coverage was more in favor of the buyers, as the positive adjustments of prices are predominant on the table.

Rejection at over $100 led to a quick correction. Uranium prices had fallen back in the mid-$80s, where they are currently being stabilized. At the current levels, even though they are falling daily, they are still much higher than the previous prices in the year.

Over a wider time span, it had a solid upward structure. In the early spring, the prices rose from $63-$65 to higher highs through late 2025. The last rally was preceded by a period of consolidation between the range of about $70 and $75.

The recovery came after a pullback of the highs that reached up to around $60-$62; the uranium equities had hit their peak. The fall returned URA to the region of the $50 level.

Momentum indicators had both positive and negative signals. The MACD histogram was also negative, which was a sign of decreasing impetus following the rebound. The Chaikin Money Flow was hovering around the neutral mark, implying that there was no strong accumulation and selling pressure was reduced.
