Natural Gas dipped a bit today, to trade at 3.03. Gas prices are trading with a marginal loss of near 0.15 percent.
The US Energy department, storage level has been injected by 26 BCF lower than prior week. Demand has been increased by 1.16 percent, mostly contributed by Power sector consumption in the last week. Total supply has fallen by 1.2percent in the last week as rig counts have declined continuously. However, as per National Hurricane Center, there is no sign of tropical cyclone in North Atlantic region which may limit the gain in gas prices. As the month comes to a close investors are taking profits to cover losses in other commodities this month.
