Stock Track | Cameco Plunges 9% in Pre-Market as JV Inkai Uranium Operation Resumes

Stock Track01-27

Cameco Corp's stock plunged 9% in pre-market trading on Monday as the Canadian uranium producer announced its JV Inkai operation in Kazakhstan has resumed production following a suspension.

The Saskatoon-based company said it was informed by its partner Kazatomprom that the Inkai uranium mine, where Cameco holds a 40% stake, has restarted operations. Kazatomprom owns the remaining 60% interest in the joint venture.

While positive from an operational standpoint, the news appears to have disappointed investors who were likely anticipating a prolonged outage at Inkai. A extended suspension could have further tightened global uranium supplies and supported higher prices for the nuclear fuel.
