Jim Cramer on Cheniere Energy: “It’s the Cleanest Play on LNG, and That Stock’s Actually Not Even That Expensive”

Cheniere Energy, Inc. (NYSE:LNG) is one of the stocks highlighted in Jim Cramer’s latest Mad Money recap as he provided top stock insights. Cramer said that the stock trades at a relatively low valuation despite hitting all-time highs. He stated:

So we, look, we still like Sempra very much, but if, let’s say, you’re focused primarily on the LNG export thesis, well, there are better ways to play it than Sempra. Now, the most obvious one, one we’ve talked about since the beginning of the show, is Cheniere Energy… These guys practically invented the modern-day liquefied natural gas export story, opening up the first American LNG export terminal in nearly 50 years back in 2016, which, by the way, was originally going to be an import terminal, and they just switched it the other way when they realized how much natural gas we have.

Today, Cheniere is one of the world’s largest liquefaction platforms with two major facilities in Sabine Pass, Louisiana, and Corpus Christi, Texas. They produced record LNG volumes last year. Most importantly, this is a pure play. Cheniere generated about $19.4 billion of LNG revenue in 2025 against roughly $20.0 billion of total revenue.

If you want the biggest, most established most liquid name with the most direct correlation to the world needing more liquefied natural gas from America, well, this is where you should start your search. Of course, with Cheniere, you’re not early to the story. Stock’s trading at all time highs. It’s up roughly 45% just since the beginning of 2026 but it’s the cleanest play on LNG. And that stock’s actually not even that expensive, trading just under 20 times this year’s earnings estimates.

Cheniere Energy, Inc. (NYSE:LNG) owns and operates LNG terminals and supply pipelines. The company supports the production, transportation, and marketing of liquefied natural gas. We recently mentioned the company while discussing stocks heating up amid market panic. You can read more here.
