Why Uranium Stocks Keep Dropping

Uranium mining stocks were looking radioactive in Wednesday afternoon trading -- in a bad way, as in, investors were running away from them. At the close of the session, Denison Mines (NYSEMKT: DNN) was down 7.6%, Energy Fuels (NYSEMKT: UUUU) was down 9.8%, and Uranium Energy (NYSEMKT: UEC) was down 9.9%. According to a report just out from the uranium experts at Ocean Wall, uranium prices have actually fallen as far as $48 a pound today, and are now at their "lowest levels since the beginning of March" (which also tallies with TradingEconomics' data).
