October Nymex natural gas (NGV24) on Wednesday closed down by -0.058 (-2.63%).
Oct nat-gas prices Wednesday fell back from a 1-1/2 week high and settled moderately lower. A slump in European nat-gas prices to a 1-month low Wednesday sparked long liquidation in US nat-gas futures. Nat-gas prices also fell on forecasts for seasonal temperatures for most of the US over the next ten days, reducing nat-gas demand from electricity providers to power air conditioning.
