Natural Gas futures reached levels not seen since 2022.

Natural Gas futures experienced a significant rally, reaching price levels last seen in late 2022. This movement followed a period of volatile trading where natural gas gained over 87% in value. Market activity occurred alongside an arctic weather system moving through the Midwest and Texas, driving high national heating demand. The Energy Information Administration reported a storage draw of 120 billion cubic feet, which exceeded the market expectation of 105 billion cubic feet. While current supplies remain higher than in the previous year, persistent cold patterns are being monitored for their impact on existing surpluses.
