The post European Gas gains on fading peace hopes and Norway risks – ING appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Fading optimism over a Russia-Ukraine peace is providing support for European Gas prices, ING’s commodity experts Ewa Manthey and Warren Patterson note. Overall storage remains 5.8% above the 5-year average “At the same time, concerns over flows to Europe amid upcoming Norwegian maintenance will also provide support to the market. Front-month Title Transfer Facility (TTF) futures managed to settle more than 8% higher over the week. EU Gas storage is close to 76% full, below the 91% seen at the same stage last year and lower than the 83% 5-year average.” “US natural Gas has been more bearish, with Henry Hub down 7.5% over the last week and settling at its lowest level since October 2024. This is despite last week’s storage build coming in below average. However, overall storage remains 5.8% above the 5-year average, while we are moving towards a period where we expect to see reduced cooling demand. This is allowing for larger storage builds ahead of the 2025/2026 winter.” Source: https://www.fxstreet.com/news/european-gas-gains-on-fading-peace-hopes-and-norway-risks-ing-202508251059The post European Gas gains on fading peace hopes and Norway risks – ING appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
