Movement Alert|Global X Uranium ETF Rises 5.03% in Regular Trading, Uranium Prices Hit Multi-Year Highs Amid Supply-Demand Tightening

Market Focus06-12 03:06

On June 12, Global X Uranium ETF rose 5.03% in regular trading, trading at $44.52/share, with turnover of $159 million.

The rally comes amid a strengthening uranium market backdrop. Natural uranium spot prices recently climbed to $86.25/lb, while long-term contract prices surged to $94/lb in May, the highest level since 2009. The sustained rise in long-term contract pricing reflects intensifying procurement urgency among utility companies anticipating future supply constraints, signaling a shift from inventory drawdown to resource competition.

Adding momentum, Urenco announced plans to expand its U.S. enrichment facility capacity by nearly 50%, with production expected to begin by 2032. This underscores accelerating nuclear fuel supply chain localization as Russian supply exits Western markets. Meanwhile, capital market enthusiasm for next-generation nuclear technology has surged, highlighted by X-energy completing its IPO and European reactor firm Newcleo pursuing a U.S. listing.

The fund invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities of companies involved in the global uranium industry, including through ADRs and GDRs. The fund is non-diversified.
