It's likely short covering. NG has been hammered lately, so a bounce like this on no major news usually points to shorts exiting positions.
Wow, that's a big jump for natural gas. I know there's been some talk about storage levels and export demand, but +10% in a day feels significant. Is this mostly due to a short squeeze, or are fundamentals really shifting that quickly?
Curious if the heatwave across the US is playing a role here, driving up demand for cooling. Also wonder if there's any spillover from the energy crisis in Europe influencing natural gas.
