December 23, 2025 — Natural gas is closing out 2025 with a classic winter setup: a market pulled in two directions at once. On one side, U.S. LNG export demand is setting records, tightening the balance and supporting prices. On the other, milder weather forecasts into early January and near-record Lower 48 production are acting like a lid—creating the kind of volatility that can move “natural gas stock” in two meanings at once: gas in storage and gas-linked equities.

December 23, 2025 — Natural gas markets are heading into the holiday stretch with a familiar winter tug-of-war: weather-driven demand vs. resilient supply. In the U.S., record production and warmer forecasts are keeping futures from running away, even as traders watch storage withdrawals and LNG export demand. In Europe, prices remain relatively contained thanks to Norwegian flows and LNG availability, despite winter drawdowns. In Asia, the LNG picture is split—China’s domestic LNG prices are sliding to multi-year lows on weak winter demand, while Myanmar is preparing a comeback as an LNG importer after years off the map.

December 22, 2025 — Natural gas markets are starting the holiday-shortened week with a familiar winter tug-of-war: early-season cold boosted prices and withdrawals, but a shift toward milder forecasts is now cooling bullish momentum even as LNG export demand remains elevated. In the U.S., front-month NYMEX natural gas futures slipped close to 2% in morning trade as forecasters leaned warmer into early January and Lower 48 production continued to surprise to the upside. Overseas, European gas prices edged lower in thin pre-holiday trading as steady supply from Norway and LNG flows helped offset expectations of stronger heating demand. Meanwhile, a

By early afternoon, prices were still under pressure, with the day’s range showing how quickly sentiment has shifted: high near $4.14 and low near $3.80.

Energy stocks head into Christmas week pulled in opposite directions: bearish supply math is pressing crude toward multi‑year lows, while geopolitical headlines—especially around Venezuela and Russia—can still jolt oil prices in thin holiday trading. On the macro side, the market has been testing the downside after crude slid to levels last seen in early 2021, with Brent settling at $58.92 and WTI at $55.27 earlier in the week amid oversupply concerns and shifting expectations tied to Russia‑Ukraine diplomacy.

Oil and Gas Stocks Week Ahead: Crude Near $60, Venezuela Crackdown Risks, and an EIA Data Delay Reset the Energy Trade

Oil and gas stocks head into the Christmas week with a familiar tug-of-war: prices are being pulled down by swelling supply and “oil on water” inventory signals, yet pushed up by fast-moving geopolitical headlines—especially around Venezuela—and rising scrutiny of “shadow” shipping routes.
