Source Fxstreet
EIA weekly gas storage data shows that US gas storage fell by 258Bcf last week, which is the third largest weekly decline since early 2022, ING's commodity analysts Warren Patterson and Ewa Manthey note.
EU storage continues to trend below the five-year average
"Despite the large draw, it was largely in line with market expectations. Ahead of the release, the market was expecting a draw of around 260Bcf."
"Meanwhile, in Europe, storage continues to trend below the five-year average with it now a little over 63% full, down from 78% at the same stage last year and below the five-year average of 70% full. Milder weather is forecast in NW Europe next week, which could slow the pace of draws."
