Uranium exchange-traded funds have increased 20 percent in value over the past month and are up 50 percent over the past 6 months, making uranium a standout metal commodity for 2023. Given that Australia is not pro-nuclear power, it is easy to forget about uranium in an investment portfolio. However, Australia has around a quarter of the world's uranium deposits and several strong uranium mining, exploration, development and production companies on the ASX .

We discuss the opportunity with uranium, discuss whether investors have missed the boat and look at the long-term thematics of uranium and how investors can potentially position it in their portfolios.
