1506 ET - U.S. natural gas futures retreat from last week's highs after weekend weather forecasts shed some cold for later in the month. LNG feedgas demand remains strong, and the next two weeks' storage could still see some large draws, but inventories remain 5% above the five-year average "that does not usually justify prices with a mid-$5 handle," Dennis Kissler of BOK Financial says in a note. As is usual in December, "weather forecasts will keep volatility elevated," he adds. Nymex natural gas for January delivery settles down 7.1% at $4.912/mmBtu.(anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
