US NatGas Hits Trendline - Fundamentals Likely to Buoy Prices

US natural gas futures (Henry Hub) are under pressure following a sharp surge higher, pinging former trendline support before easing. Prices may remain elevated, given colder-than-average temps expected to last through next week from the Ohio Valley to the Southeast US. Meanwhile, Europe continues to source a high amount of US LNG cargoes amid a supply crunch and looming Ukraine/Russia tensions. Volatility is likely to continue in the short term.
