The natural gas markets fell precipitously during the week, using the $3 level as a bit of a “ceiling” in the market. I think that the market will continue to struggle, as we should see the $2.85 level challenge, and if we can break down below there, the market should then go to the $2.75 level. A clear below that level would send this market to the $2.50 level handle which is my longer-term target. I think that the oversupply of natural gas continues to be very negative, and therefore think that the overall attitude the market should remain very bearish.
