Natural Gas Prices Soar to Record

Thanks to a forecast for colder-than-normal weather, the price of natural gas soared to an all-time record high today. Natural gas for January delivery got up to $15.52 for 1,000 cubic feet. The price of oil is close to $61 a barrel. OPEC will be meeting next week, but production should remain high. As I see it, there’s no reason to stop now.
In Russia, the lower house of parliament voted to allow foreign ownership in Gazprom, the country’s natural gas monopoly, and the largest natural gas company in the world.
