The hedge funds can buy U.t and other vehicles set up in other countries to buy yellowcake and the flouride derivative of Uranium. U.t and its warrants currently sport valuations that are significantly above their current NAV's. U.t is $9.34 but its NAV per share is back at around $8. The U.wt.a is discounting a Uranium price around $100 per lb.

Uranium Participation's NAV at $7.86 at Sept. 30

Condor - if that is the case, then why have the equities been cut in half (in many cases) while the price of uranium continues to advance? If anything, it looks like speculators are going long the metal and shorting the shares! I should have bought the metal instead, but my wife won't let me keep it in the house.
