KOH, the only thing that matters is the final expiration price of the May contract on Thursday afternoon.

thanks  will try to remember that  ...but still it makes ME feel better to see it go up instead of down on daily markets.

I'm hoping the hot temps out west and nor’easter in NE along with maybe lowered production has something to do with it....but it's probably simple speculators driving the ups and downs.

With today's technology and production...NG prices will never be high until it's marketed in huge amounts...such as for transportation....but then that would hurt petroleum prices..which are the same producers who drill for Nat Gas..kind of a catch 22...huh?

PG, petroleum prices will never be impacted by natural gas since demand for petroleum is global in nature.

 

By the way the best hope for increased demand for US natural gas is power generation and exports.  But there are political and environmental groups that working to stop that growth opportunity.

I'm gonna guess today's EIA storage injection of natgas to be sub 30bcf which is the reason for the upward movement.

Parkdota, storage injection was at 47 Bcf.

Max, insiders view is it will take at least 2 cycles (2012/2013 & 2013/2014) to get storage levels back to more normal levels.

It closed at $2.29 today..I think it will continue to rise ...as the herd thunders ahead. 

Something is going to happen soon.   Hold on to your money for couple more weeks ..see how it falls out.
