FAQ
Why is natural gas so volatile?
Demand depends heavily on weather, and supply cannot react quickly, so a cold or hot spell can move prices sharply within days. Storage levels decide how well the market can absorb those swings.
How do LNG exports affect US gas prices?
Every cargo shipped abroad is gas not available at home. More export capacity ties Henry Hub closer to European and Asian prices, while terminal outages leave more gas in the US and push prices down.
