Why Uranium Stocks Are on Fire Today

Why Uranium Stocks Are on Fire Today

Uranium stocks were unstoppable until last month when the world's first and largest physical uranium exchange-traded fund, Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (OTC: SRUU.F), seemingly slowed its pace of uranium purchased from the spot market after an unstoppable spree since its inception on Canada's Toronto Stock Exchange in July.
