U.S. Natural Gas Futures Edge Down in Early Trading

Dow Jones07-15 21:50

0950 ET - U.S. natural gas futures are modestly lower as soft LNG feedgas flows due to terminal maintenance partially offset demand to meet summer cooling needs. Demand remains strong in the coming days due to high pressure over much of the U.S. with highs of upper 80s to 100s, NatGasWeather.com says in a note. But power-sector use has been underperforming this summer as renewables take a greater share of supply, the forecaster adds. "Overall, weather patterns lean to the bullish side, although would be more impressive if it was a little hotter over the East in the 6-15 day period." Nymex natural gas is off 0.9% at $2.878/mmBtu.(anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
