$NATGAS 👋 Technical overview: The price of our benchmark continues to consolidate in the 2.75$–2.80$ range. The key support pivot has shifted from 2.754$ to 2.767$. Its position does not provide confident guidance, leaving developments dependent on reactions—either strengthening above or below the balance level. In the first case, if buyers manage to hold above it, their target levels will be resistance at 2.824$ and 2.867$. If sellers retain the initiative, their expectations will focus on 2.724$ and 2.667$.
NASDAQ: continue rising or is it just a correction?
#NASDAQ $MU $MSFTB Actual analysis of market multiples P/E (price/earnings) for U.S. technology leaders shows that the current 2026 market is overheated more strongly than at the 2022 peak. Investors are pricing in overly optimistic expectations for AI, which makes the NASDAQ index extremely vulnerable to a repeat of the bearish scenario.
$NATGAS Prices will be squeezed in the side corridor $2.60 – $2.95 / MMBtu. The market is balanced by two opposing forces. Heat (Growth driver): Widespread air-conditioner adoption will sharply increase electricity demand, preventing the price from falling and pushing it toward the upper end of the corridor. Surplus (Growth brake): Record U.S. production and filled storage (at ~6% above normal) will prevent the price from breaking through the psychological ceiling of $3.00. Key risk: Hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico. They could either drive the price down (if they halt LNG export plants) or sharply raise it (if they damage producing platforms).
$NATGAS Injections into storage facilities continue to exceed seasonal norms as production recovers: NGI forecasts that the latest weekly U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) report on natural gas inventories for the week ending July 31 will show an injection of 30 Bcf, which is 2 Bcf higher.
As mentioned in the weekly outlook section, the opening turned out to be moderately neutral. The price continues to consolidate near the key support level at $2.754. Traditionally, if buyers manage to hold above it, that would mean they are taking control. If their expectations are realized, their focus will be on $2.795 and $2.844. If sellers keep the price below, their targets will be $2.705 and $2.664.
$NATGAS Important news: • According to a report from the Energy Information Administration, the volume of gas in U.S. underground storage was 3 084 bcf. This represents a net increase of +28 bcf compared to the previous week. Storage levels are -32 bcf lower than last year and +185 bcf higher than the five-year average of 2 899 bcf. Total working gas is within the five-year historical range.
According to preliminary data from BloombergNEF, the early production cycle is estimated today at 112.75 bcf/d.
• Current demand for natural gas will fall this weekend, then rise sharply next week amid widespread mid-summer heat.
• Asset managers are increasing their positions in European gas futures and options for the fourth week in a row, as concerns grow about low storage levels ahead of next winter. Over the seven days ending July 24, traders bought the equivalent of an additional 18.00 TWh on the benchmark Dutch contract TTF. The total volume of purchases over the past four weeks reached 111.00 TWh, increasing the net position from 154.00 TWh to 265.00 TWh.
• Golden Pass LNG yesterday again came close to zero flows to the terminal.

$NATGAS For a complete assessment of the market during the transition period (August–September), over the past 6 years, the maximum and minimum spot price values for Henry Hub during each of these months are provided below, along with the exact volume of surplus or deficit in U.S. natural gas storage in PХG (compared with the 5-year average EIA value at the end of the reporting period. Size of the current surplus: The volume of gas in U.S. underground gas storage (PХG) is 6.4% above the five-year average level for this time of year.
$NATGAS An abnormal heatwave in the US is hitting gas reserves: should we expect prices to rise?
NOAA forecasts for the first half of August 2026 (maps 6–10 and 8–14 days) are unanimous: the US will be covered by a powerful heat dome. Practically the entire country is shaded in the “red” zone—temperatures above normal.
What this means for the gas market:
Air conditioners at maximum: Extreme heat in the West, South, and the East Coast will drive Americans to cool their homes en masse. Gas consumption at power plants (Power Burn) will surge to peak summer levels.
Impact on the surplus in underground storage: For now, US underground gas storage levels are comfortable and exceed the five-year average by about 6.4%. However, prolonged August heat will force producers to burn through their supply “on the spot,” sharply slowing weekly injections into storage and quickly drawing down this surplus.
Boost for Henry Hub: While the current gas surplus has kept exchange prices from spiking sharply, the scale of the impending heat wave acts as a strong “bullish” factor. Futures prices are receiving strong support and could test new local highs once Energy Department (EIA) reports confirm a drop in injection rates.
$TSLA 🚨🚨🚨 Hello everyone 👋 1. The company’s financial situation (A fundamental dead end) Tesla’s financial report for Q2 2026 stripped the stock of short-term growth drivers: A margin crisis: Car price cuts pushed margins down to 16.3%. The company makes less from every sold vehicle. A cash gap: Huge spending on AI and robotics ($5.8B) led to negative free cash flow (-$1.1B). Tesla is spending more than it earns. Investments without quick returns: Cybercab and Optimus projects require years to reach commercialization. For now, they are just expenses. A market trap: An extreme long
Futures market data for TSLAUSDT shows a dangerous anomaly:
Crowd in longs: The long/short ratio jumped to 7.45–9.51. Nearly the entire market expects a rebound and is positioning in buys.
The threat of a Long Squeeze: When the vast majority is stuck in longs, it becomes beneficial for large players and exchanges to push the price below. The price drop will trigger a cascade of forced position closures (margin calls) and liquidations of these trades. This will spark a rapid, lightning-fast plunge in the stock quotes.
