I found Nights in White Satin tedious, awash in non-rock qualities, and better suited for airplay on an easy listening radio station. Having said that, as someone else who grew up in the 60s, I’m aware my sentiments are in the minority.

*TL;DR Energy Fuels Hits Critical Mineral 'Trifecta' in Rare Earths, Uranium & Vanadium; Now Performing Commercial-Scale Partial Rare Earth Separation PR Newswire LAKEWOOD, Colo., April 13, 2022 Energy Fuels recently made commercial shipments of uranium, vanadium & advanced rare earth materials – all in a single week LAKEWOOD, Colo., April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) ("Energy Fuels" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that during the week of April 4, the Company's White Mesa Mill located near Blanding, Utah (the "Mill") made three (3) commercial shipments of three (3) critical mineral products. During that week, Energy Fuels shipped: Natural uranium concentrates ("U3O8") to the Metropolis Works uranium conversion facility in Metropolis, Illinois for conversion into uranium hexafluoride which will be enriched and used as fuel for the production of clean, carbon-free nuclear energy; Vanadium pentoxide ("V2O5") to the Bear Metallurgical Company in Butler, Pennsylvania for conversion to ferrovanadium ("FeV") which will be sold into the steel and specialty alloys industries; and High-purity mixed rare earth element ("REE") carbonate ("REE Carbonate") to Neo Performance Materials' ("Neo's") Silmet facility in Estonia for separation into advanced REE products. The REE Carbonate had undergone partial separation at the Mill using existing Mill facilities prior to its delivery to Silmet, which is the first commercial-scale REE separation to occur in the U.S. since at least the early-2000's (to the Company's knowledge). This is the first time Energy Fuels, the Mill – and perhaps any facility in history – has accomplished such a feat. The Company believes it is clearly establishing itself as a "Clean Energy and Critical Mineral Hub" for the United States. Rare Earth Elements: The Company is pleased to announce that it has begun partial commercial-scale REE separations at its White Mesa Mill, located near Blanding, Utah (the "Mill") utilizing existing Mill facilities. As a result, the Company is now producing a more advanced REE Carbonate than it did in 2021. The Company utilized an existing solvent extraction ("SX") circuit at the Mill to remove most of the lanthanum ("La") and produce an advanced cerium ("Ce")-plus REE Carbonate. This product is roughly 32% - 34% neodymium-praseodymium ("NdPr") and 1.8% terbium ("Tb") and dysprosium ("Dy") on a % TREO basis. This is the first commercial-scale REE separation conducted by the Company, and to the Company's knowledge, the first to occur in the U.S. since at least the early-2000's. The successful integration of partial separations with existing Mill equipment and processes represents a significant advancement in Energy Fuels' long-term plans of becoming a vertically integrated producer of advanced REE products. These separation processes also allow the Company to refine operating costs and optimize metallurgical and engineering designs for installation of a more advanced SX separation circuit at the Mill in the future. This most recent production campaign also further validates Energy Fuels' monazite crack and leach process. Energy Fuels continues to make rapid progress on restoring commercial REE capabilities to the United States. The Company is currently completing its latest campaign of REE Carbonate production (with partial La separation) from natural monazite sand concentrates. In July 2021, Energy Fuels began successfully extracting REEs from natural monazite utilizing a crack and leach process. The REE Carbonate that the Company has produced since July 2021 meets Neo's commercial specifications, thereby allowing it to be fed directly into the separation process. Energy Fuels' REE Carbonate is the most advanced REE material being produced at commercial quantities in the U.S. today, as it has been chemically altered, impurities have been removed, and it is ready for REE separation without further processing. The Company's new REE Carbonate is even further advanced, as it has been partially separated. The Company is continuing to seek additional supplies of natural monazite sand to expand production. The Company is also pleased to announce that it is making progress on its lab-scale REE separation pilot program. Lab-scale piloting began in 2021 and is ongoing. The Company has achieved production of a high-purity mixed NdPr oxide from its lab-scale pilot. A sample of NdPr oxide will be sent to Neo for further evaluation with the intent to sell this product as well as other separated oxides to Neo or others in the future. Through the operation of this pilot program, specific design criteria, as well as reagent costs, are being evaluated, which to date, are within initial expectations. REE separation piloting is expected to continue throughout the rest of 2022, which will also allow the Company to evaluate separation of the heavy REEs (samarium ("Sm")-plus). Energy Fuels has also formally engaged the French consulting firm, Carester SAS ("Carester"), to perform more detailed scoping, cost estimation, permitting support, technical support, and design for commercial "light" REE separation infrastructure at the Mill. The Company is currently preparing an application to the State of Utah, which it expects to submit in late 2022 or in early 2023. The Company plans to be in a position to initially produce up to 10,000 tonnes of total REE oxides ("TREO") by 2025 or 2026. The preliminary, high-level scoping work Carester performed for Energy Fuels in 2021 estimated capital and operating costs to install and operate a "light" separation infrastructure at the Mill capable of producing 10,000 tonnes TREO per year, which are in line with the Company's initial expectations. The Company's expanded collaboration with Carester will include validation of these numbers. If confirmed, Energy Fuels expects to be among the lowest cost REE producers in the world, while also recovering uranium and possibly thorium. Energy Fuels is also evaluating the production of "heavy" REE oxides, including Dy and Tb, which could occur by 2027 or 2028. Uranium: The price of uranium has risen dramatically since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The spot price of natural uranium concentrates ("U3O8") currently sits at $63.25 per pound, an increase of over 50% since December 31, 2021. Energy Fuels has been the largest producer of uranium in the United States for the past several years and has over 11.5 million pounds of annual uranium production capacity, more than any other U.S. company. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had roughly 700,000 pounds of U.S.-origin U3O8, produced by the Company in finished inventory and expects to produce an additional 100,000 to 120,000 pounds in 2022. All the Company's current finished U.S. produced uranium inventory is at the two North American uranium conversion facilities. The Company also has additional significant stockpiled mineralized material at the Mill that can be processed relatively quickly for uranium recovery as required. The Company has also observed a marked uptick in interest from nuclear utilities seeking long-term uranium supply, and is now actively engaged in pursuing selective long-term uranium sales contracts. Vanadium: Vanadium prices have also risen substantially this year. The mid-point spot price of vanadium oxide ("V2O5") in Europe is currently $12.00 per pound, an increase of nearly 40% since the end of 2021. Energy Fuels has begun selectively selling some of its vanadium inventory in 2022 at increasing prices per pound of V2O5. The Company is continuing to ship V2O5 to the Bear Metallurgical facility in Pennsylvania ("Bear Met") for conversion to ferrovanadium ("FeV") for sale into the steel and specialty alloy industries. Mark S. Chalmers, President and CEO of Energy Fuels stated: "I believe the week of April 4, 2022 will go down as one of the most important weeks in Company history. This week, our vision of Energy Fuels as 'America's Critical Mineral and Clean Energy Hub' tangibly advanced, as our White Mesa Mill in Utah sent three shipments of advanced materials containing a total of fifteen critical elements, including the rare earth elements cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, dysprosium, terbium, holmium, yttrium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, and lutetium, along with uranium and vanadium, to downstream processing facilities. We sent a shipment of high-purity rare earth carbonate containing 32% - 34% NdPr to Silmet in Estonia, where it will be refined and processed into various advanced materials for use in permanent magnets used in electric vehicle (EV) motors and wind generation, batteries, electronics, defense applications, and other technologies. We sent a shipment of uranium concentrates to ConverDyn in Illinois for sale to U.S. nuclear utilities for the production of carbon-free nuclear energy, and further adding to Energy Fuels' industry-leading finished U.S.-origin uranium inventory. And, we sent another truckload of vanadium to Bear Met in Pennsylvania for conversion into ferrovanadium for use in high-strength steel and other advanced and specialty alloys. "I could not be more proud of what our team is doing at the White Mesa Mill on rare earths. It is hard to believe, but we are currently producing commercial-scale quantities of a rare earth material that is more advanced than any other company in the U.S. We even recently began commercial-scale rare earth separation in March using existing Mill facilities, the first time the United States has produced a separated rare earth product in a couple of decades. Keep in mind that we only announced our entry into the rare earth space in April 2020. Yet barely two years later, Energy Fuels is producing commercial quantities of advanced rare earth materials. We have been able to move at 'lightning speed,' because we have existing licenses, expertise, and infrastructure, along with dedication and hard work. We believe we are moving faster than any other company in the U.S. on restoring low-cost, domestic critical material supply chains. At Energy Fuels, we don't just talk about restoring critical domestic supply chains. We innovate, invest, and work hard to actually do it, all to the highest environmental, human health, and human rights standards in the world." *For the Cliff Notes version, you may stop reading at Rare Earth Elements. Nice up day for UUUU. The demand for uranium, vanadium, and rare earths is projected to increase big time. Energy Fuels is in a sweet spot.

UUUU is all about uranium, vanadium, and rare earths. That sector and UUUU in particular are poised to go much, much higher. The greedy part of me wants UUUU to pull back allowing me to buy 10,000 more shares to trade on the way up. It could pull back to the 200 day ema at $7.50. However, UUJU has broken the 50 day ema currently at $8.70. The oscillators have pulled back and are starting to turn up. Should UUUU not pullback substantially and break out, I still own 25,000 shrs of the stock at an avg cost of $5.28. Worse things could happen.

There’s always an uncle. -
As a rule, I don’t go to the threads of pro teams of which I’m not a fan and talk trash. Having said that, this season, >this< thread was started by a Rangers fan who must be at a level of torment and self-punishment that he would expose himself like an open wound to ‘Stros fans. You lob a softball right over the middle of the plate and what would you have Astros fans do? Good Lord, man. This IS surly.

It's 2022 and the Rangers have already assumed the position.

ImmunityBio Provides Updated Status of Biologics License Application (BLA) for VesAnktiva Plus BCG for Patients with BCG-Unresponsive Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Carcinoma in Situ Business Wire4:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time Apr 01, 2022 ImmunityBio Provides Updated Status of Biologics License Application (BLA) for VesAnktiva Plus BCG for Patients with BCG-Unresponsive Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Carcinoma in Situ ImmunityBio, Inc. (NASDAQ: IBRX), a clinical-stage immunotherapy company, today announced that it has achieved a major milestone with over 80 subjects in the QUILT-3.032 study completing at least 12 months of follow-up as of January 14, 2022. All data for QUILT-3.032, which is studying VesAnktiva™ plus BCG in subjects with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer carcinoma in situ (NMIBC CIS), have been locked and analyzed. The results continue to demonstrate a clinically meaningful benefit that is sustained. The BLA has been compiled and, following final quality review, is expected to be submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this month. The FDA granted Fast Track Designation to the pivotal trial based on Phase I data. In December 2019, the FDA granted ImmunityBio Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) based on interim Phase 2 data indicating the primary endpoint of the trial was already met. “We are excited to announce that the comprehensive compilation of our BLA is essentially written,” said Patrick Soon-Shiong, M.D., Executive Chairman and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer at ImmunityBio. “With 71% of the participants in this study having a complete response and a median duration of response of 26.6 months, we believe we have a clinically meaningful therapeutic alternative for patients suffering from NMIBC in which the only option remaining is total cystectomy.” So, IBRX will submit their bladder cancer drug for FDA approval this month. Anytime IBRX announces anything that can be perceived as positive news the stock goes down

IBRX and EOSE both look to be turning up (price momentum oscillator turned up). The PMO for UUUU has turned down. Having said that, Putin will probably announce in the near future that he’s banning uranium exports and uranium stocks will soar.

From 1968 to 1972, the Moody Blues released six albums and there wasn’t a stinker in the whole lot: In Search of The Lost Chord To Our Children’s Children’s Children On The Threshold of a Dream A Question of Balance Every Good Boy Deserves Favour (EGBBF…the notes on the treble clef) Seventh Sojourn I didn’t include Days of Future Passed released in 1967 because the tune Nights in White Satin….never reaching the end….was 7 excruciating minutes of never reaching the end for me. And the song is Nights in White Satin and not Knights in White Satin.

Nice trade. No one ever went broke taking a profit. If EOSE rebounds to $6, I’ll sell and look like a genius. If it retraces to the low 3’s, I’ll simply hold my position as I believe the company has a great future and the stock will revisit $6 in the next few months. Re: UUUU, the ppo has turned down and the pmo is about to do the same. 20 day ema is at $9.10. If it fails, the 50 day EMA is at $8.30. If that fails, the 200 day is at $7.26. So, the opportunity to take a trading position in UUUU sub $8 is a real possibility. Am continuing to hold 25,000 shares of UUUU with a cost basis of $5.28 as a long term position
-
EOSE has support at 4 and again at 3.80. If those hold, then, this is a corrective move and 6 is still a reasonable upside target. If they fail, it could retrace all the way back to 3-3.20. Holding 11,500 shares of EOSE @ 3.10. No guts, no glory.

Putin got some really bad intel. Of course, if you don’t tell him what he wants to hear, that retirement home on the Black Sea becomes a bed in the Hotel Gulag.

EOSE +.42 to $4.48. If it can close above here, we should move to $6.

UUUU +.64 to 10.34. It failed right at 10.50 a week ago. Needs to break through that price with volume.
