美东时间下午3点37分——美国天然气期货价格今日收盘下跌，尽管上周库存增幅创下本季以来最低水平，市场却未从中获得太多安慰。美国能源信息署（EIA）报告称，上周天然气库存仅增加160亿立方英尺，低于平均水平，这一数据将库存相较于2021-2025年五年均值的过剩量压缩了130亿立方英尺，目前过剩规模为1850亿立方英尺。
市场咨询机构Gelber & Associates在研报中指出：“本次小幅累库证实，当前高温天气与电力部门强劲需求正在抑制库存注入，但总库存仍稳稳高于五年均值水平，且预计到注入季结束时，库存总量仍有望逼近4万亿立方英尺。”这番表态，虽承认了需求端的支撑作用，却也未能扭转市场的偏空情绪。
纽约商品交易所（Nymex）天然气主力合约最终收跌2.9%，报每百万英热单位（mmBtu）2.733美元。盘中价格一度波动剧烈，多空双方围绕供需前景展开拉锯，但空头力量明显占据上风。分析师认为，尽管短期热浪推升了制冷用电需求，但整体供应充裕的格局依旧未改，天然气价格短期或将维持震荡偏弱态势。
