US Natural Gas Update: Futures Slide Amid Abundant Supplies, Easing Weather Momentum

US natural gas futures slid on Thursday amid abundant supplies and retreating warm weather, ahead of the weekly gas storage report.The front-month Henry Hub contract and the continuous contract both fell 1.49% to $2.780 per million British thermal units.Total dry gas production is expected to remain steady at 109 billion cubic feet per day, while demand slides, primarily due to a 1.6 Bcf/d decline in power generation demand, according to NRG Energy.Meanwhile, weather-driven momentum continued to ease, with northern parts of the country expected to see near- and below-normal temperatures from September 17 through September 23, according to National Weather Service data.LNG export feedgas flows were expected to remain elevated at 19.73 Bcf on Thursday, significantly above the 30-day moving average of 18.53 Bcf/d, according to the Bloomberg LNG Feedgas Model.This comes as major LNG export facilities that were shut down for scheduled maintenance in recent months have begun returning to service.The markets are also awaiting the US Energy Information Administration's weekly natural gas storage report, with forecasts pointing to 35 Bcf of working gas being injected into storage for the week ending September 4, 2026. This was higher than the prior week's 30 Bcf, but below last year's 71 Bcf, according to data compiled by Investing.com.

US Oil Update: Oil Benchmarks Surge Past $100/bbl Mark on Supply Risks, Chinese Demand

Crude oil prices hit $100 per barrel for the first time since May as US military strikes near Kharg Island heightened supply concerns, while traders also looked for signs of a recovery in import demand from China.Front-month West Texas Intermediate futures gained 4.1% to $100.03 per barrel, while Brent futures surged 4% to $105.24/bbl. Both contracts hit their highest since May.Thinning commercial stockpiles have forced China back into the physical crude market earlier than expected to secure prompt crude barrels ahead of an anticipated demand recovery, analysts said.Saxo Bank analysts said Thursday, "China is reportedly set to resume crude purchases this month."ING analysts noted that prices have firmly broken past the $100/bbl threshold as geopolitical tensions escalate, triggered by recent US military strikes on Iranian tankers near Kharg Island and subsequent retaliatory warnings from Tehran.These supply anxieties have been further compounded by tightening inventory data, with the American Petroleum Institute reporting a 300,000-barrel draw for the week ending Sep. 4, following a substantial 2.6-million-barrel decline the prior week.Meanwhile, political reactions to the price surge have intensified, with US President Donald Trump addressing the domestic fallout during a press gaggle at Joint Base Andrews.Trump said elevated crude prices could persist through the upcoming midterm elections before tumbling, projecting that gasoline could eventually fall below $2 per gallon.Market participants now await the official US Energy Information Administration petroleum inventory report for clearer visibility into domestic supply resilience.The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries on Thursday lowered its global oil demand growth forecasts for the fifth straight month for 2026, projecting demand to grow by 400,000 barrels per day over the year.This compares with OPEC's global oil demand growth forecast at 600,000 b/d year over year in August, 800,000 b/d in July, 1 million b/d in June, 1.2 mmb/d in May, and 1.4 mmb/d in April.

South Korea Reportedly Explores Share Purchase in US Nuclear Firm Westinghouse

The South Korean government is considering acquiring shares in US nuclear energy company Westinghouse, under a nuclear power framework to be agreed upon with the US, media outlets reported.The administration is exploring an acquisition of common shares with voting rights and is currently discussing the size of the purchase, a government official told the Korean daily Hankyoreh on Wednesday.Subject to the terms of the deal, the transaction could give the country a stronger position over intellectual property and greater access to the US nuclear market, The Korea Times reported Thursday, citing government sources.In January 2025, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power and Korea Electric Power settled their dispute with Westinghouse concerning the possible use of US technology in Korea's APR1400 reactor design.The three companies are now set to sign a nuclear collaboration agreement, which includes the reported share acquisition plan.Global investment firm Brookfield (BN) currently holds a 51% interest in Westinghouse, while Canadian uranium producer Cameco (CCJ) owns the remaining 49%.The deal is seen to benefit South Korea if it guarantees board seats, veto rights, IP licensing rights, and clear terms for profit sharing and loss allocation, according to Nuclear Safety and Future head Lee Jeong-yoon, as cited by The Korea Times.However, Jeong-yoon reportedly said there is also a risk of South Korea absorbing cost overruns and construction delays, while other shareholders recover their investments.The country is also investing in the construction of eight nuclear reactors in the US.Westinghouse, the US Trade Representative, and the South Korean trade ministry did not immediately respond to' requests for comment.Price: $37.97, Change: $-0.55, Percent Change: -1.43%

August US Existing Home Sales Fall as Expected, Month Supply at 10-Year High

The pace of US existing home sales fell by 2% to a 3.98 million seasonally adjusted annual rate in August from 4.06 million in July, as expected in a survey compiled by Bloomberg as of 7:05 am ET, data from the National Association of Realtors released Thursday showed.Total sales were down 1.2% from a year earlier.Sales of single-family homes were down 1.9%, while condominium sales fell by 2.7%. Sales were down in three of the four regions of the country but held steady in the West region. It also decreased in three regions from a year earlier, but held steady in the South regionHomes remained on the market a median of 31 days, up from 29 days in July but unchanged from a year ago.The supply of homes for sale rose to 1.62 million homes in August from 1.57 million in July, up 5.9% from the 1.53 million level a year ago."Mortgage rates and home sales move in opposite directions, so it's not surprising to see a mild dip in home buying activity due to high mortgage rates," said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun. "Still, home prices are rising, and existing home sales are actually up 1.6% year-to-date through the first eight months of the year. Homebuying demand, despite higher interest rates, is no doubt being supported by rising wages, which grew 3.1% in August, along with 643,000 net new jobs added since the start of the year."The month supply on market rose to a 10-year high of 4.9 months from 4.6 months in July and a 4.6-months supply a year ago.The median home price decreased to $429,100 from $436,400 but was up 1.6% from $422,400 level one year ago and was the highest reading for an August report on record.The monthly existing home sales report from the National Association of Realtors measures sales of single-family and multi-family homes for resale at the time of closing, including the number of existing homes available and the median sales price. A strong reading is a positive sign for mortgage lenders and related consumer product companies.
