U.S. Natural Gas Futures Edge Up Ahead of Storage Data -- Market Talk

Dow Jones05-14

15:00 ET - U.S. natural gas futures inch higher ahead of weekly storage data that are expected to leave the surplus against the five-year average little changed. Analysts surveyed by The Wall Street Journal expect an 87 Bcf injection for last week, putting inventories 142 Bcf above the 2021-2025 average, versus the previous week's 139 Bcf surplus. "Two more supportive EIA storage reports are likely before triple-digit injections return in the end of May," Eli Rubin of EBW Analytics says in a note. "Seasonal upside is more likely in early summer than during the next 7-10 days leading into the typical physical market weakness of Memorial Day weekend." Nymex natural gas settles up 0.7% at $2.864/mmBtu. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
