The week's ETF movers - Gainers: GDXJ +6.5%. GAZ +6.3%. TAN +5.2%. UNG +4.4%. GDX +4.3%.
ETF Losers: WPS -6.1%. EWJ -5.7%. EWA -5.6%. EPI -5.6%. IYR -3.4%. Comment! [On the Move] - Tuesday, May 21, 5:54 PM As a second U.S. liquefied natural gas export project gets the green light, Credit Suisse is the latest to predict how much LNG the U.S. might send overseas: potentially 10B cu. ft./day by the end of the decade. Growing confidence that more export approvals are ahead has lifted U.S. natural gas calendar-strip prices for 2015, '16 and '17 by 3%, 4% and 5%, respectively, CS says. (earlier) 2 Comments [Energy]
- Tuesday, May 21, 10:43 AM Liquefied natural gas exports from the U.S. are looking more likely after the Freeport LNG terminal gained conditional approval, Goldman Sachs says, supporting its view that at least 6.8B cu. ft./day of liquefaction capacity will be built in the U.S. The market needs no more than 7.7B/day for the next decade, and Henry Hub prices need to stay at or below $5.10/MBtu to keep U.S. LNG competitive in Europe, Goldman says. 6 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]

The week's ETF movers - Gainers: TAN +9.6%. XLF +3.7%. UNG +3.4%. GAZ +3.2%. EWJ +3.0%.
ETF Losers: GDXJ -14.2%. GDX -11.5%. PSLV -7.3%. SLV -6.9%. SIVR -6.7%. 1 Comment [On the Move] - Monday, May 13, 7:25 PM Moody's predicts "historically low" natural gas prices will remain for some time because North America's shale-drilling revolution is "deeply entrenched." If right, that's bad news for the likes of Encana (ECA) and other natural gas producers but more encouraging for Agrium (AGU) and other ammonia and methanol producers that will enjoy "lower natural gas input costs." 1 Comment [Energy]

ETF Losers: GAZ -4.6%. UNG -4.2%. VXX -2.8%. GDXJ -2.4%. TLT -2.0%. Comment! [On the Move] - Friday, May 3, 10:47 AM Natural gas prices in the northeast U.S. could hit five-year seasonal highs this summer because increasing demand from power plants may be too much for pipelines to handle, analysts say. Kinder Morgan Partners (KMP), Spectra Energy (SE) and Williams Cos. (WMB), which own the region’s main interstate pipelines, say their systems are running at or near capacity. Comment! [Energy]
- Thursday, May 2, 3:09 PM Nearly everyone's a winner today as it's not just stocks lit up bright green. Oil (USO +3.3%), gold (GLD +0.5%), silver (SLV +0.7%), and corn (CORN +1.8%), are all flying. Even bonds (TLT), which tumbled on the big dip in jobless claims, have returned back to flat. Notably lower is natural gas (UNG -6.3%), tumbling on an unexpected add to inventories and as spring finally seems to arrive in the States. 3 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]

The week's ETF movers - Gainers: VXX +11.3%. EPI +5.5%. UNG +3.9%. GAZ +3.9%. AMJ +2.1%.
ETF Losers: GDXJ -14.2%. SLV -11.4%. SIVR -11.3%. GDX -11.3%. PSLV -10.8%. Comment! [On the Move] - Thursday, April 18, 12:59 PM Natural gas (UNG +4.2%) rises to its highest price since mid-2011 after a smaller-than-expected add to stocks. At play here, suggests Tradition Energy, is an unusually cold spring adding to heating demand. Warmer temps and the looming restart of idled nuclear plants could limit future gains. 3 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 10, 2:53 PM An industry-backed group raises its estimate of technically recoverable natural gas reserves in the U.S. by 28% to 2,384T cu. ft., more than 90x the amount of gas consumed in the U.S. last year. The report projects the amount of gas that can be recovered with existing technology but does not address whether the gas can be produced at a reasonable cost. 3 Comments [Energy]

ETF Losers: GDXJ -8.0%. GDX -7.4%. URA -6.7%. EWY -6.2%. REMX -5.3%. Comment! [On the Move] - Friday, April 5, 4:45 PM Japan wants to invest billions of dollars directly in natural gas infrastructure in western Canada as part of a plan to secure massive supplies of liquefied natural gas to replace nuclear power, Financial Post reports. LNG transportation costs from Canada are lower because of proximity to Asia, and Japan believes LNG exports are more likely to move ahead from Canada than the U.S. west coast. 4 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]
- Friday, April 5, 10:32 AM Bill Barrett (BBG +5.2%) is upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Goldman Sachs, which believes the surplus in natural gas is over and prices should rise to the upper end of $4.00-$4.50 per MMBtu. Goldman says BBG is "in the early stages of an improving resource base trading at an attractive valuation likely to be supported by rising gas prices." COG +2.5%, SWN +2%. Comment!

$UNG we suspect algorithmic trading in the natural gas markets have pushed prices higher over last few days, people should be careful - View all 1 replies

Jonathan N: Someone definitely doesn't want the price of UNG to fall. Flood of trades at the bid, but there seems to be unlimited volume at 21.88-89.
