Tom Bailey, Head of ETF Research at HANetf, discussed the Sprott Junior Uranium Miners UCITS ETF during the Proactive One2One Investor Forum. HANetf, a white label ETF issuer, partners with third parties like Sprott Asset Management to create, manage, and distribute ETFs in Europe. Bailey emphasised the growing global electricity demand, particularly in Asia, and the correlation between rising GDP per capita and increased energy use. He highlighted the importance of nuclear power in meeting this demand, considering energy security and climate change challenges. Nuclear power's reliability, low operational fuel costs, and minimal carbon emissions make it an appealing source of clean, secure energy. With 22 countries aiming to triple nuclear capacity by 2050, the demand for uranium is expected to rise, creating a supply deficit. Bailey noted the current and future construction of nuclear reactors worldwide, especially in China, which is likely to surpass the U.S. in nuclear capacity by 2030. He argued that this deficit in the uranium market signals a new uranium bull market, with prices having risen significantly in the recent past. The presentation concluded with an overview of HANetf's uranium-focused ETFs, particularly the junior version targeting small-cap miners, offering investors exposure to the potential uranium supercycle. #ProactiveInvestors #UraniumInvesting #ETFs #NuclearEnergy #ElectricityDemand #EnergySecurity #ClimateChange #UraniumMarket #SprottJuniorUranium #HANetf #RenewableEnergy #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Welcome to the podcast from Morningstar UK, the leading provider of investment news, views and analysis. This week we analyse the impact of this week’s UK Budget Report and how to navigate falling global stock markets. Let’s start with the Budget. Whilst Phillip Hammond’s announcements of tax reductions and spending measures may boost Britain’s high street retailers, the positive impact on investors is likely to be limited says Morningstar Investment Management’s Dan Kemp. Now on to global markets. During times of uncertainty even the most experienced of fund managers get scared of volatile markets. Up next, Aberdeen Standard's Hugh Young explains his fears about a trade war are justified, but says investors should stay the course or they risk missing the recovery. Our next guest, Michele Hardeman, Head of Global Markets for Asia Pacific for State Street, explains to our Senior International Editor, Emma Wall, how falling emerging market currencies have impacted investor confidence. China shares have had their worst October in a decade, and the sell-off recently was the largest since January 2016 - is the fear warranted? And how does this impact the value of other emerging market countries? Morningstar Investment management’s Cyrique Bourbon is up next to explain So how do we go about finding value in troubled Emerging markets? Our next guest, T Rowe Price's Ernest Yeung says we should look for stocks which are uncorrelated to trade war fears and US central bank policies. FTSE and MSCI have announced plans to include more mainland China listed shares in their indices. Morningstar's Director of ETF Research in Asia, Jackie Choy, is up next to explain the impact this has for passive fund investors Most of the money in emerging market bond tracker funds and ETFs is linked to JP Morgan benchmarks, so the bank’s plans to include Gulf nations such Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain from January 2019 will have an impact on investors tracking those indexes explains Morningstar’s Jose Garcia Zarate. What are thematic ETF’S and why should we be wary of them? Robotics, ESG, artificial intelligence - thematic ETFs are growing in popularity. But investors should look before they leap says Morningstar's Kenneth Lamont And that’s the end of this edition.

Welcome to Episode #70 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast. Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life. In this episode, Tracey is joined by Neena Mishra, Zacks Director of ETF Research and also the editor of Zacks Income Investor. But she’s not on the show this week to talk about ETFs or income stocks. No, she’s joining Tracey to discuss a far more important topic: the investing opportunities in India. Neena just returned from a trip to India where she noticed that there was a lot more optimism about the economy. Prime Minister Modi has been trying to institute economic reforms to open up India’s economy, which has been notoriously closed off to foreign investment. Given the developments over the last few years, it looks like he is succeeding. While many American technology and social media companies are shut out of China for various reasons, India has seemingly opened its doors. With 1.2 billion people, and growing, many companies would love to tap that consumer base. With one of the largest populations of Millennials in the world, and a growing middle class, 2017 could be the year of India. Tracey and Neena discuss 5 ways in which investors can invest in India’s rising economic power, without even leaving the shores of the United States. 5 Stocks to Play the Indian Growth Story 1. Apple (AAPL) only has 2% of India’s smartphone market. Estimated at 300 million, and growing, that’s just a small sliver of the market. But until 2017, it hasn’t been able to open Apple retail stores in the country. Thanks to a deal to manufacture the phones in India, which will bring costs of the phones down for consumers, Apple could soon be tapping India’s growing elite. 2. Tesla (TSLA) appears to be poised to enter the India market after CEO Elon Musk tweeted out in February 2017 that it is looking to enter India in mid-2017. There are also rumors that a long-awaited Tesla Asia manufacturing plant may get the green light in India, instead of China. Stay tuned. 3. Facebook (FB) has long been shut out of the massive Chinese market, but that’s not the case in India. One problem in India, however, has been the poor Internet infrastructure. There are just 250 million data subscribers, although that number is growing quickly. In 2016, Facebook tried to give away the Internet in India but was shot down by the government. However, data companies have been quickly expanding which is helping Facebook’s reach. In the fourth quarter of last year, India was Facebook’s fastest growing market. 4. Amazon (AMZN) has put the most on the line in India as it has already spent about $5 billion to expand its fulfillment centers and delivery service in the country. Amazon Prime has launched in 100 cities. 10% of India’s population speaks English, which makes it the second largest English speaking country, after the United States, in the world. It’s facing competition, however, from Alibaba and homegrown FlipKart and Snapdeal. But it has launched Amazon Video and a recent 3-day Great Indian Sale saw sales growth surge over 200% compared to a regular shopping day. 5. Netflix (NFLX) has an aggressive international expansion plan, and it includes India. In December 2016, just as Amazon Video launched, Netflix announced a partnership with Bollywood movie star and producer, Shah Rukh Khan. Right now, Neena says Netflix is charging around $10 a month for its streaming service. That is high for India. But, again, companies are looking at the growth potential. What else should you know about India and investing in its hot growth story in 2017? Find out the answers to this and more on this week’s podcast.
