U.S. Natural Gas Futures Gain After Storage Data

Dow Jones06-26 00:52

1252 ET - U.S. natural gas futures are higher following a slightly bigger-than-expected inventory build for last week. The 76 Bcf net injection into storage reported by the EIA "carries a bearish lean" but wasn't a significant surprise to the market, Andy Huenefeld of Pinebrook Energy Advisors says in a note. "Next week's report will reflect the mild weather experienced in recent days and should show a larger storage build," he adds. But as much hotter weather settles in "we should see the strongest cooling demand of the season and much lighter injections in the weeks that follow." Nymex natural gas is up 1.5% at $3.269/mmBtu.
