NZ Funds’ uranium bet yields over 300% profit.

London, Nov 22 (ANBLE) – NZ Funds, the asset manager with a keen eye for explosive opportunities, has hit the jackpot with their brilliant uranium bet. They have managed to turn a measly 300% return on their investment, thanks to the perfect storm of supply shortages and the world’s desperate quest to ditch fossil fuels.

Intriguingly, the trade that led to these staggering returns was put on in 2021. At that time, NZ Funds purchased options that allowed them to buy uranium between $38.50 and $48.00, with expiration dates stretching up to early 2024. Talk about forward-thinking!

According to Numerico data, the spot price of uranium hit an astronomical $80 per pound in November, pulverizing its previous record and soaring higher than a caffeinated astronaut on a moonwalk.

As we know, uranium is the equivalent of liquid gold in the nuclear energy world. It’s the secret sauce that propels the power plants of the future.

NZ Funds revealed that the uranium price surge has boosted their existing options positions by a staggering 362%. If only all investments were like uranium – radiating massive profits!

The mastermind behind this nuclear windfall is none other than hedge fund advisor Syzygy, who pitched the brilliant idea and structured the trade. The execution? Who else but the financial behemoth, Goldman Sachs (GS.N), the undisputed heavyweight champion of Wall Street.

William Callanan, chief investment officer and founder of Syzygy, explained the secret behind uranium’s surge: “The drive for an energy transition has increased positive sentiment towards nuclear energy. Many key countries in the world are adopting new legislation to incentivize nuclear energy development while securing future uranium supplies.” It seems the world is finally waking up to the power of atomic energy.

Since the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011 and the energy crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine, nuclear power has emerged from the shadows, shining brighter than ever. The United States, recognizing the importance of energy independence, is leading the charge by reshoring its commodities supply chains.

To further secure their uranium future, the U.S. Senate has already voted in favor of creating a Nuclear Fuel Security Program, putting the nation’s coveted enriched uranium supply in safe(r) hands.

Callanan proudly claims credit for an investment concept that is pioneering in its uniqueness. “This cycle, the demand story is especially compelling,” he asserts. “Not only because of utility restocking requirements, but also the massive financial interest that has come from exchange traded funds purchasing physical uranium.” It’s clear that uranium is attracting investors like moths to a radioactive flame.

The Global X Uranium ETF (URA.P), catering to investors hungry for uranium-related shares, has already skyrocketed 42% this year alone. That’s one ETF that’s definitely going critical.

Mark Brooks, senior portfolio manager at NZ Funds, is ecstatic about their foray into the nuclear playground. “NZ Funds have the in-house infrastructure, investment team, and world-class expertise from our partners at Syzygy to support these types of investments,” he proudly states. Talk about having the right set of tools to trigger financial fission.

Curiously, the United States has been mining less uranium since 1980, turning the nation into a net importer. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), it now relies heavily on uranium imports from Canada, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Uzbekistan. Looks like Uncle Sam needs to dig deep again.

While nuclear energy accounts for 10% of the world’s power generation, the uranium market is shining even brighter. So, if you’re tired of lousy returns, hop on board the uranium train. But be warned, the gains may be nuclear, but the risks are never too far away.

ANBLE reached out to Goldman Sachs for a comment, but they were too busy counting their uranium-filled gold bars to respond.
