We reiterate this builder and operator of liquified natural gas facilities as a TOP PICK. We like that cash reserves continue to grow, while debt is reduced and shares bought back. It trades at 18x earnings. With low domestic natural gas prices in the US, this will make for good demand to export in the near term. We continue to recommend a stop at $140, looking to achieve $201 -- upside potential of 25%. Yield
(Analysts’ price target is $200.89)We again reiterate LNG as a TOP PICK. Cash reserves are growing, which is allowing the company to allocate another $4 billion towards capital expansions while receiving investment-grade credit status. Its Corpus Christi Stage 3 project will see first LNG later this year. It trades at 18x earnings and supports a robust 78% ROE. We suggest trailing up the stop (from $140) to $153, looking to achieve $198 -- upside potential of 19%. Yield 1.0%
(Analysts’ price target is $98.69)Our PAST TOP PICK with LNG has triggered its stop at $215. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. This will result in a net investment gain of 33%, when combined with our previous guidance.
After recently reported earnings beat analyst expectations, we select LNG as a TOP PICK. The developer of LNG infrastructure trades at 18x earnings and supports a monsterous 200% ROE. We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is retired and shares bought back. Its modest dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 10% of cash flow. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $140, looking to achieve $200 — upside potential of 26%. Yield 1.1%
(Analysts’ price target is $200.24)
