Here's How Investors Can Get in on Soaring Uranium Prices

The charts of this fund are giving off a positive glow.

Stocks quotes in this article: SRUUF

Spot uranium prices are up sharply. Uranium prices soared to $54.6 per pound in late May, the highest in over one year, amid threats of lower supply and persistent bets of bullish long-term demand.
 
How can someone get exposure? 
 
One way is the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust ( SRUUF) . 
 
Let's check out the charts of this fund. 
 
In the daily bar chart of SRUUF, below, I can see that the shares are breaking above their February highs and are in the process of breaking above the November highs. The shares trade above the rising 50-day moving average line and above the rising 200-day line.
 
The On-Balance-Volume (OBV) line has been strong since August. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator is above the zero line. 
 
 
 
In the weekly Japanese candlestick chart of SRUUF, below, I can see the past two years of price action. The shares trade above the rising 40-week moving average line.
 
The trading volume is uninspiring and the OBV line is soft. The MACD oscillator is neutral. A strong close above $13 will be a breakout. 
 
 
In this daily Point and Figure chart of SRUFF, below, I can see that the shares made a new high for the move up and the software is projecting a price target in the $15 area. 
 
 
 
In this weekly Point and Figure chart of SRUFF, below, I see a price target in the $18 area. 
 
 
Bottom-line strategy: Investors could go long SRUUF around current levels. My price targets are $15 and $18 for now.
