Daily
UxC, LLC (UxC) launched its daily Headline News email service in January 2002. Trying to keep up with the increasing number of information sources is a time consuming and sometimes frustrating task. UxC's Headline News service reduces some of the headaches by filtering a number of news sources, giving you a quick review of the each day's nuclear market news. As pictured to the right, news headlines from around the world are delivered directly to your email box daily. Included with each news headline is a short description, publication date, original source, and a link allowing you to access the story from its original source.
Participants both inside and outside of the nuclear fuel industry have continued to seek more frequent and reliable nuclear fuel price indicators. Historically, the industry operated with spot U3O8 prices that were published once a month. In 1987, Ux introduced the weekly Ux U3O8 Price®, the first, and only, weekly price for almost 10 years. In September 2009, UxC launched its daily UxC Broker Average Price (BAP) reporting. The UxC BAP is based on the daily bids and offers as posted by the following brokers participating in the nuclear fuel market: Evolution Markets and Numerco Limited. Then in 2020, UxC initiated publishing the Ux U3O8 Price® on a daily basis, and is made available only to UxC subscribers through several delivery formats including daily email delivery, UxC's Subscriber Services website, and/or direct data feeds.

The Ux Weekly reports spot prices for uranium, conversion and enrichment, and tracks activity in these markets.

Monthly
UxC has developed a unique Market Indicator System to identify potential price movements in the uranium, conversion and enrichment markets by analyzing and rating the underlying trends of key factors in these markets. These indicators are updated monthly and, along with pertinent market commentary, are emailed to subscribers of the associated UxC Market Outlook reports as a way of providing a heads up on market changes.
StoreFUEL was created to assist utility fuel managers, cask designers, fabricators, and other related companies in staying current on the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) certification process for spent fuel cask technology. StoreFUEL, published on the first week of every month, details recent cask vendor licensing milestones, updates on licensing activities for each vendor, a brief summary of all active U.S. dry storage programs, upcoming licensing milestones and a recently enhanced section on decommissioning of nuclear power plants. Each edition includes a number of useful reference tables such as casks loaded in the U.S., reactor license expiration dates, plans for future ISFSIs, and more.
Quarterly
To provide more in-depth analysis of key developments and their potential impact on uranium and SWU prices, UxC publishes the Uranium Market Outlook and the Enrichment Market Outlook reports on a quarterly basis. Both reports review the previous quarter's spot and long-term market activity, analyze the outlook for the upcoming quarter, and discuss potential price movements over the short and long term, providing price projections for the restricted and CIS market under three market scenarios. The reports also provide additional detail on the monthly near-term indicators, as well as long-term indicators.
