Nat-Gas Prices Retreat as Cool US Temps Allow Gas Inventories to Build

July Nymex natural gas (NGN25) on Tuesday closed down by -0.102 (-2.81%).

July nat-gas prices on Tuesday extended Monday's sharp losses and posted a 1-week low.   Nat-gas prices were under pressure Tuesday on the outlook for cooler US temperatures to curb nat-gas demand and allow inventory levels to build.  As of May 30, nat-gas inventories were +4.7% above their 5-year seasonal average, signaling adequate nat-gas supplies.  Also, last Friday's weekly report from Baker Hughes showed active US nat-gas rigs rose to a 15-month high, signaling higher production in the near term.
