June Nymex natural gas (NGM23) on Wednesday closed down -0.011 (-0.46%).
Jun nat-gas on Wednesday closed moderately lower on expectations for a larger-than-normal build in weekly nat-gas inventories. The consensus is for Thursday's weekly EIA nat-gas inventories to climb +108 bcf, well above the 5-year average for this time of year of +91 bcf. Limiting losses in nat-gas is a decline in Canadian nat-gas production as wildfires continue to rage in western Canada.
