Natural gas: yesterdays storage injection data came in lower than expected but failed to ignite a gas market which is now more focussed on the nearterm weather outlooks which points towards less needs for power generation. The smaller than expected injection of 20 bcf has brought the current surplus above the five year average down to just 12.5 percent. This further removes one of those fears that existed earlier this year when the potential for exhausted capacity became a risk and drove the price below USD 2 mmbtu at one stage. Support currently at 2.70 (July low) is so far holding up.
