U.S. Natural Gas Retreats on Milder Weather Outlook -- Market Talk
Dow Jones
Feb 09
0854 ET - U.S. natural gas futures start the week lower with weather-driven demand easing and production practically back at pre-winter storm levels. The recent swing in storage to a deficit against the five-year average, and expectations the deficit will increase with this week's report, leaves the market more sensitive to another late-winter cold spell, Ritterbusch and Associates says in a note. But by March, "the cold weather factor tends to subside with the rollover to the April contract as prompt month." Nymex natural gas is off 8.2% at $3.141/mmBtu.(anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
