October Nymex natural gas (NGV23) on Friday closed -0.064 (-2.36%).
Nat-gas prices on Friday closed moderately lower. Forecasts for cooler U.S. temperatures next week that will reduce nat-gas demand from electricity providers to run air conditioning undercut nat-gas prices. Forecaster Maxar Technologies said a high-pressure system moving toward the East Coast would lower temperatures in the region, while temperatures in the western U.S. will be below normal from September 20-24.
