Uranium & nuclear fuel · Westinghouse (49%)
Cameco
A top-tier global uranium miner and nuclear-fuel firm that — adding a 49% Westinghouse stake (reactors, services) — spans the nuclear fuel cycle vertically from mining to reactors. It sits in the raw-material layer as AI-datacenter power demand pushes reactor restarts and new builds, and the US government's backing of $80B+ of new Westinghouse reactors (including for datacenter power) locks in long-term demand. In 2025 Westinghouse EBITDA was $780M (+61%), total revenue C$3.48B, and realized uranium price C$91/lb (+9%) — the early innings of an up-cycle.
