Venture Global's Q2 was very solid, with locked-in contracts setting up cheaper financing. Revenue of $4.587 billion missed on timing, but EPS beat, the dividend rose to $0.04 and full-year EBITDA guidance rose $500-600 million. Contracted cargoes reached 91% for 2026 and 75% for 2027, struck at elevated TTF prices. That take-or-pay cash flow enabled $5.3 billion of refinancing saving $100 million a year, and with Plaquemines Phase I due in Q4, it expects better credit ratings next year. x.com  … Show more

Venture Global is a better put-selling play than a stock to hold for now, since it will probably flush back toward $11 once the Iran conflict ends. Oil should come down, which would weigh on it, though very strong earnings should help it keep some relative strength. After hitting $13.9 on those earnings and an oil spike, it slipped to about $13.05, and $11.75 looks like a good entry again next week. The company itself remains well liked. x.com  x.com 

Venture Global is the most direct bet on the world buying more American LNG.
