May Nymex natural gas (NGK24) on Friday closed up by +0.006 (+0.34%).
May nat gas prices Friday recovered from a 1-1/2 week low and posted modest gains after NatGasWeather said the forecast is for cooler temperatures for the Midwest and the East from April 19-26, which could boost heating demand for nat-gas. Nat-gas prices Friday initially moved lower on negative carryover from Thursday when weekly EIA inventories rose more than expected.
