- Canada-China Pact on Uranium a positive development for Cameco (TSX:CCO) (NYSE: CCJ) - Feb 10, 2012

Producers like Uranium One Inc (TSX: UUU) are down over 60% from their 52 week highs and some juniors have fared even worse. However, the recent hostile bid for Hathor Exploration (TSX: HAT) by uranium major Cameco (TSE: CCO) (NYSE: CCJ) for $520 million on August 25th 2011 (a 40% premium at the time of the bid announcement) is giving some room for Read more...
