This nuanced pricing mechanism captures the immediate supply and demand fluctuations that dictate market conditions.

The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (TSX:U.UN) is a publicly traded investment vehicle that provides investors with direct exposure to the price of uranium. The trust holds physical U₃O₈ (yellowcake) in secure storage facilities and reflects changes in the uranium spot price through its net asset value. As one of the largest and most transparent uranium holding entities, it serves as a practical proxy for tracking market sentiment and uranium price trends, particularly in the absence of real-time spot price disclosure from private sources like UxC.
