Cameco Stock Just Flashed a Bullish Signal – Here’s Why It Matters
Nuclear giant Cameco (CCJ) is quietly printing a breakout pattern while uranium demand surges. Forget meme stocks—this is real energy infrastructure at work.
The Uranium Power Play
With governments desperate to ditch fossil fuels, nuclear is back in vogue. Cameco’s reactors don’t care about Fed rate hikes or crypto crashes—they just print steady cashflow.
Wall Street’s Blind Spot
Analysts still treat uranium like a niche commodity. Meanwhile, smart money’s accumulating shares like it’s 2007 again. Bonus jab: If your portfolio isn’t exposed to the coming energy crisis, you might as well invest in Beanie Babies.
Nuclear power investment
After a period when policymakers were committed to the clean energy transition and all things renewable, there's a growing understanding that, while the transition is still taking place, it will take place at a slower pace than many previously thought. That means that energy sources such as gas are going to be a key part of the mix for many years to come.
The intermittency of renewable energy and its cost also mean that nuclear is becoming an increasingly popular option as a source of carbon-free energy.
It's well understood that power-hungry data center hyperscalers like,'s Google, andare investing in nuclear power to solve their long-term power needs.
Government investment
At the same time, governments across the globe are investing in or reassessing the phasing out of nuclear energy, and that's a green flag I see. Cameco stock recently surged on news of investment in nuclear power plants in the Czech Republic; Belgium voted to pull back on phasing out nuclear energy; and Turkey is building nuclear power plants.

These are just a few examples, and as the momentum grows, investors and analysts may need to start penciling in more optimistic assumptions for Cameco's addressable market. As long as that momentum builds, investors are likely to get behind the stock.
