Chevron's LNG Strikes Disrupt 7% Of Global Supply: 5 Stocks To Watch As Natural Gas Prices Surge
Portfolio Pulse from Piero Cingari
Strikes at Chevron Corp.'s Australian Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) export facilities have disrupted 7% of the global LNG supply, causing a surge in natural gas prices. The strikes come after failed negotiations with unions. The facilities primarily serve Asia, and prolonged strikes could further disrupt operations and affect prices worldwide. Natural gas prices have already risen, with the European Dutch TFF benchmark surging over 10% and the Henry Hub natural gas price in the US rising 2%. Shares of major US natural gas exporting companies, including Cheniere Energy Inc., Antero Resources, Devon Energy Corp., EQT Corp., and Southwestern Energy Co., have also seen increases.
