First up: Cameco (CCJ 6.40%). These aren’t your grandfather’s uranium miners. They control 15% of the GLOBAL supply. FIFTEEN PERCENT. Kazatomprom is breathing down their neck, sure, but Cameco has the McArthur River mine… a vein of high-grade uranium so rich, it practically bleeds power. They hauled in $3.4 billion last year, a solid 11% jump. And let me tell you, in this insane market, uranium was the ONLY energy resource that wasn’t circling the drain. A 16.9% profit margin? In mining? That’s witchcraft, pure and simple. But they don’t just dig stuff up. They refine it, fuel it, and they own 49% of Westinghouse, the guys building the AP1000 reactors. These aren’t your daddy’s reactors, either. We’re talking advanced, efficient… practically foolproof. (Don’t quote me on that last part.) Cameco has a hand in EVERY stage of this madness. From the mine to the meltdown… I mean, the power plant.
