Portfolio Composition Pie-Chart
  • Strong Uranium Fundamentals:
    Projected supply/demand imbalance will benefit uranium equities in medium and long-term.

    Portfolio Manager believes spot price and equity price declines in past year are temporary and provide attractive entry point for investors.

  • Constrained Supply:
    Current production satisfies only 2/3 of uranium demand.

    Shortfall is made up by secondary supply, which is finite, depleting and expected to be drastically reduced by 2013.

    Highly Enriched Uranium Agreement, whereby Russia provides uranium recycled from nuclear weapons, which accounted for 10% of world supply will expire in 2013.
  • Increasing Global Demand:
    Nuclear power is a low emission and cost-efficient energy source.

    107 new nuclear power plants expected to be built by 2020, requiring 45% increase in current mined supply.

    New demand is primarily from merging markets; approximately 50% of new energy capacity is expected to come from Brazil, Russia, India and China.
