Where Will Gas Go?

April 08, 2024

Just when $2.00/mmbtu was in sight for the May contract, a weak underground storage report brought back the bears. After last week’s EIA report of an underwhelming withdrawal from storage, the Henry Hub NYMEX benchmark prompt immediately dropped 4% to $1.77/mmbtu. The June contract was above $2.00/mmbtu, only to slide back below that mark.

Maybe the late season chill, rain and snow across several states will provide a bid.  However, natural gas injection season is around the corner. And with above normal inventories likely at the start of this summer injection season, storage operators can reach end-of-season targets with smaller natural gas injections.

Commodity Trading Advisor Stephen Schork reports that we are just as likely to see an injection or withdrawal in the next EIA numbers.
