U.S. Natural gas futures are up by more than 5% (+25 cents at $6.28)as Western nations are set to announce sanctions on Russian gas supplies which will keep U.S. LNG exports near record highs, outweighing forecasts for mild weather and lower heating demand in key consuming regions.

The energy sector is set for a higher start, supported by mild gains in the crude complex and a rally in U.S. Natural gas futures, despite losses in the major equity futures. U.S stocks are poised for a lower start amid weakness in technology as bond yields hit their highest level in three years and investors wait for more details about the Federal Reserve’s plan to raise interest rates.
WTI and Brent crude futures are up in early trading as the threat of new sanctions on Russia raised supply concerns, offsetting fears of weaker demand following a build in U.S. crude stockpiles and extended COVID-19 restrictions in Shanghai. Oil futures also rose as a halt in talks to revive the 2015 Iran nuclear deal increased concerns over the existing tight supply. The United States and its allies prepared new sanctions on Moscow over civilian killings in northern Ukraine, which President Volodymyr Zelensky described as "war crimes,” to which Russia has denied. Additionally, Goldman Sachs raised its 2023 oil price forecast to $115 a barrel from $110 a barrel on tight fuel supplies and firm demand despite COVID-19 lockdowns in China and a record release of strategic reserves by the United States.
