💪 Make America Nuclear Again

In a bold move to reshape America’s energy future, Donald Trump signed an executive order aiming to triple the nation’s nuclear power capacity by 2050. 

Here's what it means:

  • Massive Growth Target: Increase capacity from 100 GW to 400 GW to meet future energy demand.

  • Faster Approvals: Streamline regulations by limiting reactor design reviews to 18 months and easing safety standards.

  • Reactor Revival: Restart shut-down plants like Three Mile Island and promote small modular reactors (SMRs).

  • Energy Dominance Council: Create a new advisory body to prioritize nuclear expansion and energy independence.

The plan signals a major shift to boost U.S. energy security and technological leadership through nuclear power. Uranium stocks have started to run on the news, after hitting a low in April.

Surprisingly.

🤔 MAG: SOLD?

Pan American Silver Corp. (NYSE: PAAS) (TSX: PAAS) and MAG Silver Corp. (NYSEAM: MAG) (TSX: MAG) announce that they have entered into a definitive agreement whereby Pan American will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of MAG pursuant to a plan of arrangement.

Highlights:

  • Consideration: MAG shareholders will receive $20.54 per share, comprising $500 million in cash and 0.755 Pan American shares per MAG share.

  • Premium: The offer represents a 21% premium to MAG's closing price and a 27% premium to its 20-day volume-weighted average price as of May 9

  • Shareholder Impact: Post-transaction, MAG shareholders will own approximately 14% of Pan American's fully diluted shares

More M&A in the last 18 months than we’ve seen in a long time.
