Natural gas settled down 10.43% after forecasts showed less demand over the next two weeks because LNG exports were expected to decline. Storage rose 89 bcf, above the 79 bcf forecast, lifting inventories 13.2% above the five-year average.
Weaker demand forecasts and a storage surplus point to continued low gas prices, which keeps energy and fertilizer input costs contained for feed producers.
