Henry Hub front month has fallen to the lowest level since 23 October, extending last week’s decline, driven by high stock levels, below normal demand and high production levels.

    • US Natgas MAY 24 down -2.3% at 2.82$/mmbtu
  • Some US weekly data release dates are adjusted this week due to the Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday. The EIA gas inventory report will be published on 22 November.
