Three of the world’s largest economies are on a natural gas spending spree.
And that bodes well for investors looking to grow their wealth with LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) investments.
In the first half of 2023, U.S. exports of LNG averaged 11.6 billion cubic feet daily.
That’s over 4X more than its LNG exports five years ago.
This rapid growth is expected to continue over the next decade, and now is an excellent time to get in position for your share of the massive profits coming from LNG demand.
In just a minute, I’ll share a strategy I’m recommending for my readers today…
But first, here’s some material about different factors fueling LNG growth.
- In the first seven months of 2023, three countries — Germany, the Philippines, and Vietnam — began importing LNG for the first time. By the end of next year, the EIA expects Antigua, Australia, Cyprus, and Nicaragua to start importing LNG. Several more countries are in advanced stages of developing LNG import capacity.
- China is on a natural gas shopping spree. One of the country’s largest private energy companies just signed a 20-year deal to buy gas from the U.S. Other state-owned energy companies are also in discussions for more natural gas deals.
- The country has faced many electricity shortages in recent years and LNG is one way to ensure a steady energy supply at reasonable prices. According to the consulting company Rystad Energy, China’s LNG imports could double over the next decade. India and Europe are also looking for LNG deals to avoid future energy shortages and reduce the use of fossil fuels like coal for power generation.
All of this circles back to a booming industry in the U.S.
According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA)…
America’s LNG exports will increase by 150% over the next decade.
And frankly, investing in LNG shipping companies would be a good idea, but today, their earnings depend on commodity prices and shipping rates, which can be volatile.
Instead, investing in natural gas pipelines is a safer way to benefit from LNG growth.
Pipeline companies that transport LNG profit from every cubit feet they deliver…
That means they have reliable earnings that grow as regardless of natural gas prices.
One way to profit is through the Global X MLP & Energy Infrastructure ETF (MLPX).
This exchange-traded fund owns a collection of the top pipeline companies…
And has handed investors 113% returns over the last three years.
That’s three times better than the S&P 500.
Not bad, right?
