March Nymex natural gas (NGH25) on Thursday closed down by -0.123 (-3.88%).
Mar nat-gas prices Thursday tumbled to an 8-week low and settled sharply lower. Since posting a 1-year nearest-futures high two weeks ago, nat-gas prices have plummeted due to forecasts for warmer US weather, which curbs heating demand for nat-gas. Forecaster Maxar Technologies said Thursday that most US forecasts have shifted warmer for February 4-8.
