1452 ET - U.S. natural gas futures fall for a fifth consecutive session as warmer-than-usual January weather keeps a lid on heating demand. The market "continues to look for a shift in the short-term temperature forecasts in the direction of colder-than-normal patterns across key consuming regions and is still finding little in this regard," Dennis Kissler of BOK Financial says in a note. "The only near-term bright spot remains with LNG. However, the current longer-range weather forecast is taking precedence." The market looks oversold with an upside correction due, he adds. Nymex gas settles down 4.9% at $3.350/mmBtu.(anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
