February Nymex natural gas (NGG25) on Tuesday closed down sharply by -0.226 (-6.11%).
Feb nat-gas prices Tuesday fell sharply for a second day and posted a 2-1/2 week low. Nat-gas prices are under pressure as weather forecasts have warmed for most of the US for early next month, which will curb heating demand for nat-gas. Forecaster Maxar Technologies said Tuesday that the eastern half of the US will see above-normal temperatures for February 7-11.
