SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Natural-gas futures turned lower Thursday, after
the Energy Information Administration reported a decline in U.S. inventories
that matched market expectations. Supplies fell 94 billion cubic feet for the
week ended March 29, the EIA said. Analysts polled by Platts forecast a decline
between 90 billion cubic feet and 94 billion. Total stocks now stand at 1.687
trillion cubic feet, down 779 billion cubic feet from the year-ago level and 37
billion cubic feet below the five-year average, the government said. May natural
gas (ngk13) was at
$3.89 per million British thermal units, down 1 cent, or 0.3%. It was trading at
$3.94 shortly before the data

probably net withdrawal in the report next week. prices aren't great, but in a much better place than they were last yeat
Platts is suggesting a consensus of 20-24 BCF net withdrawal in the report tomorrow. Range of analysts is 1 BCF to 67 BCF. Personally, I'd like to see something between 24 to 40 BCF.
Well, market wasn't too surprised. With the storm this week, any chance we see net withdrawal for this week, or essentially neutral?
