  • Cameco Stock Seen as a Long-Term Hold Amid Nuclear Energy Shift and Strategic Investments
    March 19, 2026, 5:08 PM EDT. Cameco (TSX:CCO) has delivered a 578% gain over five years, but some investors are choosing to hold the stock indefinitely. The company benefits from a solid backlog of long-term uranium supply contracts, including a recent $2.6 billion deal with India, ensuring stable revenues amid spot price fluctuations. Positioned across the nuclear value chain via Westinghouse and Global Laser Enrichment, Cameco is set to capitalize on the growing nuclear power needs driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and demand for carbon-free energy.
