Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM), Chesapeake Energy Corporation (CHK): 5 Natural Gas Stocks That Win Big From LNG Exports

Foolish bottom line

While there are several other natural gas stocks that will benefit from increased exports, these five are should feel the impact of exports first. Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) are the nation’s top two natural gas producers while Range Resources Corp. (NYSE:RRC), Ultra Petroleum Corp. (NYSE:UPL), and Southwestern Energy Company (NYSE:SWN) are among the three lowest-cost producers. That means increased exports, which likely will bump the price of natural gas a little higher, should yield big gains for the stocks of all five companies.
