NYMEX May gas drops near lowest front-month settle in almost three years

摘要

NYMEX May natural gas futures settled 4.1 cents lower at $2.49/MMBtu Monday — the lowest front-month settle in almost three years — as traders reacted to mild weather forecasts and above-normal storage injections. The last time a prompt-month NYMEX contract settled lower was $2.467/MMBtu on June 15, 2012.
