0842 ET - U.S. natural gas futures look to extend last week's rally with winter weather pushing up demand, strong LNG exports and expectations of a cold start to January. "It's likely to be an extremely volatile week, aided by a mid-week Christmas break, Jan'25 futures expiring at Friday's close, and of course what's likely to be large colder/warmer run to run weather model trends for the first half of January," NatGasWeather.com says in a note. The Nymex front month is up 0.6% at $3.769/mmBtu after reaching $3.944/mmBtu overnight. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
