Natural Gas Futures Market News and Commentary

Smaller-Than-Expected Weekly Storage Increase Lifts Nat-Gas Prices

July Nymex natural gas (NGN26) on Thursday closed up +0.088 (+2.80%).

Nat-gas prices settled sharply higher on Thursday on a smaller-than-expected increase in weekly storage levels.  The EIA reported on Thursday that nat-gas inventories rose +73 bcf in the week ended June 12, below expectations of +80 bcf. 

Forecasts of warmer-than-normal US weather are also supportive of nat-gas prices, as warmer temperatures may boost nat-gas demand from electricity providers to power air-conditioning.  Weather forecaster Vaisala said Thursday that most of the lower 48 US states are expected to see above-normal temperatures from June 28 to July 2. 

An excessively short position by hedge funds could exacerbate any short-covering rally in nat-gas futures.  Last Friday’s weekly Commitment of Traders (COT) report showed funds boosted their short natural gas future position by 10,726 in the week ended June 9 to 34,059 net-short positions, the most in more than two years.
