    Japan is in talks to buy exported U.S. liquefied natural gas from companies including Sempra (SRE), Dominion (D) and Freeport McMoran (FCX), Bloomberg reports, citing comments from an official at Japan's trade ministry. Japan needs LNG after last March's earthquake rendered 52 of its 54 nuclear reactors inoperable. Cheniere Energy (LNG +8.8%) surges, even though it isn't mentioned in the report.

    Seems like most investors missing out on ECA. LNG will hopefully build a LNG terminal in Louisiana (they are planning too I believe) shoots up but ECA which already owns and operates a terminal in Louisiana for LNG doesn't?

    Disclosure: Own FCX, LNG, ECA stocks

    I don't see anything that links Freeport LNG to Freeport McMoran (FCX).
