Rick Rule Doesn’t Do Panic—He Does Profits
Inside Rick Rule’s contrarian playbook for navigating uranium volatility, de-risking speculative stocks, and thinking five years ahead while the market panics.

Rick Rule isn’t your average investor. The legendary speculator, known for his contrarian views and encyclopedic knowledge of commodities, sat down with Jay Martin to unpack how he's navigating the current chaos—and where he sees the biggest money being made. If you're chasing momentum, watching daily stock price swings, or letting social media dictate your investing mindset, Rule’s message is clear: you're doing it wrong.
Instead of playing the short-term game, Rick Rule is doubling down on long-term strategy. Take uranium, for example. While social media screams panic over declining spot prices, Rule sees opportunity. In fact, he loves the negativity. The worse the sentiment, the better the setup. To him, hate is a buy signal.
Rule isn’t focused on the spot market. That’s for amateurs. He’s paying attention to the term market, where real deals are made—multi-year contracts between suppliers and buyers that shape the future of supply. But that requires work. It’s arithmetic, not rhetoric. And most people simply aren’t willing to put in the effort. That’s where Rule gains his edge.
According to him, there are about 100 uranium stocks out there right now. Most are junk. Maybe 10 or 12 are worth a serious look. But within that tiny minority lies tremendous upside. The key is due diligence. It's not enough to believe in the sector; you need to analyze the balance sheet, understand feasibility studies, and track insider trading to see who’s really backing up their words with money. That’s how you separate hype from value.
