OUR TAKE ON THE MARKETS
NYMEX Natural Gas
Natural gas continues to drift lower. Lack of demand (no weather) is the driver. The $2 level is technically significant. The back of the curve is holding support albeit tenderly. Given the drama of the price drop, the current levels are attractive.
WHOLESALE POWER
ERCOT
Heat rates have offset natural gas price drop.
PJM
Price follows natural gas.
