  • Natural Gas Prices Spike as February Nymex Contract Expires at 3.25-Year High
    January 28, 2026, 5:42 PM EST. February Nymex natural gas futures surged 7.28% to a fresh 3.25-year peak on Wednesday, closing with a +0.506 gain. Prices rallied amid colder forecasts for the eastern U.S., boosting heating demand and drawing down supplies. An Arctic blast disrupted Texas gas production, cutting 15% of U.S. output temporarily and lifting prices by over 120% in the past week. Market funds covered short positions due to contract expiration. Anticipated inventory draws greater than the five-year average and lowered 2026 U.S. gas production forecasts further supported gains. Despite a year-on-year dip in U.S. gas output, demand climbed sharply by 34.2%. Electricity output saw a decrease, which could temper some price pressures. Overall, supply constraints and increased demand fuel a bullish outlook for natural gas.
