NatGas in Storage Shows YOY Drop for First Time Since 2022

U.S. natural gas crossed a storage threshold, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s weekly storage report on Jan. 3.

For the first time since December 2022, the amount of gas in storage decreased year-over-year, according to the EIA. The market was not bullish on the news, however, as the natural gas price fell following warm weather forecasts and reported production increases.

The U.S. withdrew 116 Bcf of natural gas from storage for the week ending Dec. 27, leaving the total amount of storage at 3.529 Tcf. During the same period in 2023, the U.S. held 3.480 Tcf of natural gas, or 67 Bcf more.

It was the first time in two years that overall storage levels fell from 12 months before, according to analysts. Stocks still remain higher than the five-year average of 3.259 Tcf, according to the EIA.

Mike Johnson reelected as House speaker. The vote was a nailbiter, but ultimately Johnson, who had the backing of President-elect Donald Trump, won over enough of his Republican colleagues to hang onto his gavel. With Democrats voting for their own leader, Hakeem Jeffries, and the GOP’s narrow 219-215 House majority, Johnson could only afford to lose one vote from his own party—and several from the party’s right flank appeared to be holding out before the vote. But Johnson won on the first ballot after convincing two Republicans who had opposed him to switch their votes so that multiple rounds of voting were not required.

The FCC’s net neutrality rules, which required internet providers to deliver all websites at the same speed, were struck down by a federal appeals court.

OIL prices rose on Friday (Jan 3), closing the week higher on the back of cold weather in Europe and the US as well as additional economic stimulus flagged by China.

Brent crude futures settled higher by 58 cents at $76.51 a barrel, the highest level since Oct 14. US West Texas Intermediate crude settled up 83 cents to US$73.96, the highest level since Oct 11.

Brent notched a 2.4 per cent weekly gain, while WTI climbed nearly 5 per cent.

Signs of Chinese economic fragility heightened expectations of policy measures to boost growth in the world’s top oil importer.

“China just is unceasing at this point in terms of their announcements about trying to stoke economic activity, and the market’s taking note of that,” said John Kilduff, partner at Again Capital in New York.

The U.S. stock market rebounded Friday, but the rally failed to land the major indexes in positive territory for the week after a rough transition into 2025.

For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.5%, the Dow retreated 0.6% and the Nasdaq fell 0.5%, according to the preliminary FactSet data. Next week, investors will be paying close attention to the U.S. jobs report due out on Jan. 10.
