Cheniere Energy Surges to 62nd in Trading Volume with $1.316 Billion Day

On July 18, 2025, Cheniere Energy (LNG) saw a significant surge in trading volume, reaching $1.316 billion, marking a 231.24% increase from the previous day. This substantial rise placed Cheniere at the 62nd position in terms of trading volume for the day. The stock price of Cheniere Energy also rose by 5.44%, marking the second consecutive day of gains, with a total increase of 5.52% over the past two days.

Cheniere Energy's recent performance can be attributed to the robust export activities at the Port of Corpus Christi. The port has set new records for tonnage in the second quarter and the first half of 2025, with 51.1 million tons moved in Q2 and 102.4 million tons in the first half of the year. This surge in exports, particularly in oil and LNG, has significantly boosted the port's overall performance and contributed to the positive market sentiment surrounding Cheniere Energy.

The increased demand for LNG exports has also been supported by favorable market conditions. In Corpus Christi, LSMGO can be delivered via ex-pipe with lead times of 1-2 days, while VLSFO is also readily available, although it requires delivery via barge. This efficient supply chain has further enhanced the export capabilities of the port, benefiting companies like Cheniere Energy that rely on these infrastructure.

Additionally, the average natural gas deliveries to U.S. LNG export terminals have seen a 2.7% increase, reaching 16.5 Bcf/d. This rise in pipeline receipts indicates a growing demand for LNG exports, which is likely to continue driving the positive momentum for Cheniere Energy's stock price.
