Uranium Executives Anticipated Russian Nuclear Fuel Ban Despite Senate Delay
Portfolio Pulse from Matt Whittaker
The U.S. Senate voted to ban nuclear fuel from Russia, a move anticipated by uranium mining executives despite delays. The ban, expected to be signed by President Biden, unlocks $2.7 billion for domestic uranium supply chain development. Executives from enCore Energy Corp. (EU), Uranium Royalty Corp. (UROY), Energy Fuels Inc. (UUUU), and Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC) had anticipated the ban, citing broad bipartisan support and the need to deprive Moscow of war funding. The death of Russian activist Alexei Navalny and Russia's invasion of Ukraine added urgency to the ban.
