Australian Uranium Stocks Gain Bull on Market Supply Concerns -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
May 20

2356 GMT - It's "time for some yellowcake on your plate," according to Morgans analyst Chris Creech. The broker initiates coverage on Australia's Paladin Energy, Boss Energy and NexGen Energy, all with buy ratings. The uranium market is now structurally constrained after decades of underinvestment, says Creech. At the same time, "nuclear is emerging as the only scalable, zero‑carbon baseload option," amid decarbonization pressures, energy security concerns and AI‑driven power growth, he says. Morgans puts a 13.05 Australian dollar target on Paladin, which ended Tuesday at A$10.63. Its target on Boss is A$1.55, versus a closing price of A$1.26. It targets A$20.80 for NexGen, which last traded at A$15.52. (rhiannon.hoyle@wsj.com; @RhiannonHoyle)
