Q: Nuclear/ Uranium

There is a trend where more energy is going to be needed for AI and nuclear appears to be a good energy source. In the past you have suggested ETF,s NLR and URA as well as stocks CCO and NXE. Do you still have the same opinion and what stocks/ETF would you recommend as an entry point.

Q: Materials sector in Canada or US
In my 80s and we have very little to no exposure to any companies in any of the Materials subsectors.
I know that at our age we should probably invest conservatively and consider capital retention as imperative, but the advisers we had in our early income generating years had that strategy and we missed out on massive growth.
Since becoming a member of 5i, I have become bolder and made up a little lost ground, so I have some appetite for growth, but steer clear of absolute gambles.
What would you suggest for any stocks in the materials sector, where there is a moderate dividend, but ample room for growth?

Q: CCO market cap is$ 36 Billion and NXE market Cap is $7 Billion

CCO produces 92 million pounds of Uranium and NXE will produce 30 million pound of uranium. 1/3 of what CCO produces

Market value of NXE should be 1/3 of CCO or $12 Billion divided by number of shares outstanding of 565 million gives me a price for NXE of $ 21.00, Share at $ 12.00

What do you think of this calculation. Am I on to something

I own NXE

Q: Is Russia restricting (or banning) exports of enriched uranium to NATO countries? Do you know if Kazakhstan is also restricting exports since they are the world's top exporter and a client state of Russia. Russia produces uranium at roughly 10% of the amount produced by Kazakhstan. I understand CCO purchases uranium from Kazakhstan. Is this a good time to purchase CCO or would you wait until Trump enters the White House? If Trump accedes to Putin's demands possibly the uranium restrictions would be lifted leading to weakness in CCO's stock? I do find it hard to imagine NATO countries returning to their pre-war acceptance of Russia and its exports in spite of any Trump Putin peace deal. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim
