What is Natural Gas?
US natural gas: the most weather-sensitive market on the shelf.
This is the price of natural gas at Henry Hub in Louisiana, the US benchmark. Gas heats homes in winter and fuels power plants in summer, so demand follows the weather, and storage levels show how tight the market is.
It is one of the most volatile commodities. A change in the two-week forecast can move it several percent, and exports of liquefied gas have tied it more closely to events in Europe and Asia.
