Can a Single US LNG Export Facility Affect the Price of NatGas?

No doubt you've noticed the price of natural gas has been relatively low over the past few weeks, dropping from around $2.40 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) a month ago to now flirting with $2/Mcf. The last time gas prices went below $2/Mcf was in 2016. One of the reasons, believe it or not, that the price has fallen dramatically over the past few days is because of a single LNG export facility--Cheniere Energy's Sabine Pass facility (which exports some M-U gas).
