Natural Gas Fundamental Analysis October 22, 2014 Forecast

Analysis and Recommendations:

Natural Gas  continued to fall as the long term weather forecast remains neutral and supplies increase. Implied demand for all energy products continues to tumble as growth forecasts around the globe are revised downward.  Gas gave up 11 points to trade at 3.659. NatGasweather is forecasting cool air will sweep through Midwest and Northeast in the coming week driving moderate heating demand however rest of the US will be relatively comfortable with limited demand for heating or cooling for most part of the week. If we look into updates from US CPC, most part of the country might see largely higher than normal temperature cutting down the demand for cooling and thus further pushing prices lower. However, technically as prices move to oversold territory, analysts advise selling only on pullbacks today.
