This could be to strategically corner the world Uranium markets and limit the amount of Uranium available on the world market. Why not buy it up? Raise the price — Less for terrorists to get their hands on.
Just a thought ...

Gee, Gulf Oil tried this in the '70s (some say at the behest of the Canadian government). Legally, it didn't turn out well.

Uranium is not a commodity, very different when you have a controlled material. The buyers are limited and surpluses are not available. The IAEA is supposed to monitor each sale. All this would do is stockpile Uranium in the US, not a bad idea if you ask me, and cheap in the long run.
Oil is not like that ...
