Meanwhile, the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite both ended the week up roughly 0.7%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">On June 9, Uranium Energy published its results for the third quarter of its current fiscal year &#8212; which ended April 30. In addition to the market&#8217;s negative reaction to the earnings report, the company also saw sell-offs connected to macroeconomic and geopolitical pressures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Will AI create the world&#8217;s first trillionaire?\u00a0Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an &#8220;Indispensable Monopoly&#8221; providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=b5b14300-a214-4185-a999-be71db0e39b4&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fa-sa-ai-boom-nvidias%3Faid%3D10891%26source%3Disaediica0000069%26ftm_cam%3Dsa-ai-boom%26ftm_veh%3Dtop_incontent_pitch_feed_yahoo%26ftm_pit%3D18914&amp;utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=bcfe760e-7497-46fc-844a-d9b209acc28f\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Continue \u00bb;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Continue \u00bb&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Continue \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>    <img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/84971b87d117eb14c5c9a627529d7ee9.jpeg\" alt=\"Chart lines going down over cash. \" loading=\"eager\" height=\"767\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj  loaded\"\/> Image source: Getty Images.         Investors weren&#8217;t happy with Uranium Energy&#8217;s Q3 report    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">In fiscal Q3, Uranium Energy posted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/n\/net-income\/?utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=bcfe760e-7497-46fc-844a-d9b209acc28f\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:net loss;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;net loss&quot;}\" class=\"link \">net loss<\/a> of $0.11 per share &#8212; a performance that came in far worse than the average analyst estimate&#8217;s call for a loss of $0.03 in the period. The business did not record any sales in the quarter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Along with the quarterly report, Uranium Energy said that it expected production to increase in the current quarter. Management also said that it expected a Class IV cost study to be completed in the first half of the next calendar year, potentially paving the way for an accelerated commercialization ramp.<\/p>\n<p>         Macroeconomic and geopolitical news also weighed on the stock    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">On Wednesday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics published its Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for May. The report showed overall CPI inflation of 4.2% and core CPI inflation of 2.9%. While the results were roughly in line with economists&#8217; forecasts, inflation also accelerated in the month. The inflation news was made more worrying by developments suggesting that the war with Iran was getting ready to ramp back up, but investors got good news on that front later in the week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Despite some conflict flare-ups, news subsequently emerged that the U.S. and Iran were close to making a peace deal &#8212; and stocks rallied in response. While it looks like the two sides are poised to agree to basic terms to end the conflict, Uranium Energy&#8217;s pre-revenue status means it could continue to see big swings in conjunction with macroeconomic and geopolitical news.<\/p>\n<p>      Should you buy stock in Uranium Energy right now?    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Before you buy stock in\u00a0Uranium Energy, consider this:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The Motley Fool\u00a0Stock Advisor\u00a0analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=a5b6d728-39a7-4aa1-9f95-79882ef98647&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fe-sa-bbn-bn%3Faid%3D8867%26source%3Disaeditxt0001213%26ftm_cam%3Dsa-bbn-evergreen%26ftm_veh%3Darticle_pitch_feed_yahoo%26ftm_pit%3D19383&amp;utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=bcfe760e-7497-46fc-844a-d9b209acc28f\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:10 best stocks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;10 best stocks&quot;}\" class=\"link \">10 best stocks<\/a>\u00a0for investors to buy now\u2026 and\u00a0Uranium Energy\u00a0wasn\u2019t one of them.\u00a0The 10 stocks that made the cut are built for long-term growth and could produce monster returns in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Consider when\u00a0Netflix\u00a0made this list on December 17, 2004&#8230; if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation,\u00a0you\u2019d have $433,268!*\u00a0Or\u00a0when\u00a0Nvidia\u00a0made this list on April 15, 2005&#8230; if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation,\u00a0you\u2019d have $1,259,391!*<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">That performance is why people listen.
