According to Ux Consulting, long-term uranium prices increased 2.5 percent from $60.00 to $61.50 a pound. This is the first time the term price has rose since January 2011. Rob Chang, analyst at Versant Partners, suggested that the reason behind the uptick was a result of the Japanese town of Ohi's recent approval to restart two nuclear reactors. The local government voted 11-1 in favor of restarting the reactors. "Many view the restart of some of Japan's 50 idled nuclear reactors as a major positive catalyst for uranium," he wrote in a note.
