Why These Energy Stocks are Losing This Week

6. Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE:VG)

Share Price Decline Between Nov. 26 – Dec. 3: 3.37%

Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE:VG) develops and constructs LNG export projects to provide clean, affordable energy to the world. The company is currently the second-largest LNG exporter in the United States.

Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE:VG) took a hit on November 26 when JPMorgan trimmed its price target on the stock from $16 to $10, in order to reflect the latest spreads and arbitration impact. However, the analyst maintained an ‘Overweight’ rating on VG’s shares.

It is worth noting that earlier on November 24, Citi analyst Spiro Dounis also significantly reduced the firm’s price target on Venture Global, Inc. (NYSE:VG) from $16 to $9, while maintaining a ‘Neutral’ rating on its shares.

The lowered target came on the back of lower expected LNG prices as the market braces for a supply glut next year, especially from the United States. According to the latest data from Kpler, Asian spot LNG prices are forecast to fall from about $12 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) in 2025 to an average of $10 next year.
