Natural Gas Forecast Dec. 22, 2011, Fundamental AnalysisNatural gas prices rose while energy prices rallied after the EIA report was out to show a big drop in crude oil inventories and well below median estimates, whereas the EIA report for natural gas is due out on Thursday, where the report is expected to show a decline in inventories to -106 BFC from -102 BCF.
