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]

Friday, April 19, 4:26 PM
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]

The week's ETF movers - Gainers: TLT +4.3%. WPS +3.7%. UNG +2.6%. VNQ +2.4%. IYR +1.8%.
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!

- Thursday, March 28, 2:12 PM The number of natural gas drilling rigs working in the U.S. fell by 29 in the latest week to 389, near a 14-year low, while oil rigs climbed by 30 to 1,354, according to the latest Baker Hughes rig count. Gas rigs have shrunk to almost a fourth of their Sept. 2008 peak as a supply glut pushed prices to 10-year lows and drove energy producers toward more profitable oil and liquids-rich plays. 3 Comments [Energy]
- Thursday, March 28, 11:12 AM The U.S. government reportedly is set to lift the embargo of shale gas to Japan as early as next month, giving conditional approval and then proceeding to examine Japanese companies and their shale gas projects on a case-by-case basis. Japan's LNG imports have been rising since the 2011 Fukushima nuclear plant disaster, and U.S. LNG prices have been falling due to the sharp rise in shale gas output. 3 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]
- Wednesday, March 27, 3:07 PM Updating its ETF matrix, Bespoke finds all the major U.S. index ETFs up about 10% YTD, with the leading sectors health care (XLV) and consumer staples (XLP) - each up more than 13%. Dragging are telecom (IYZ), materials (XLB), and tech (XLK). About all country ETFs are in the red, with the exceptions of Japan (EWJ) and Mexico (EWW). Leading everything is natural gas (UNG), up 17.7%. Comment!
