Venture Global's shares rose 3.5% to $13.31 following UBS's upgrade from 'neutral' to 'buy', with a price target of $18, indicating a 12.8% upside. UBS noted that the volume ramp at the Plaquemines LNG export facility is exceeding expectations, predicting 600 commissioning cargoes compared to the company's guidance of 550. The recent positive ruling in Shell's arbitration has alleviated concerns. Currently, 6 out of 13 brokerages rate the stock as 'buy' or higher, with a median price target of $17.
