January Nymex natural gas (NGF25) on Tuesday closed higher by +0.094 (+2.92%)
Jan nat-gas prices on Tuesday recovered from early losses and settled moderately higher. Short covering in nat-gas futures emerged Tuesday to push prices higher after European nat-gas prices surged more than +4% when the European Union said it has no interest in Russian gas, which could tighten European nat-gas supplies further and prompt increased demand for US nat-gas.
