November Nymex natural gas (NGX24) on Friday closed down by -0.116 (-3.91%).
Nov nat-gas prices Friday retreated from a 3-3/4 month high and sold off sharply on the outlook for tropical storms to move away from the Gulf of Mexico, easing concern about a disruption to US nat-gas production. BOK Financial Securities said Friday that tropical storm activity in the Gulf of Mexico poses less of a threat to US nat-gas infrastructure as storms in the Atlantic are taking an eastward heading and moving away from the Gulf of Mexico.
