Natural Gas Snaps Back as Hormuz Blockade Meets Crowded Shorts
Henry Hub natural gas rebounded sharply after Trump announced a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz on April 12, with the operation going live Monday morning. The move caught speculative traders at their most bearish in over 16 months — CFTC data showed net short positions deepened to -184K contracts as of April 10. European TTF surged 9% on the same catalyst, and the thin Hyperliquid perp amplified the repricing as the market tests whether U.S. domestic gas can stay disconnected from a global energy crisis that just escalated again.

Natural Gas Snaps Back as Hormuz Blockade Meets Crowded Shorts
Henry Hub natural gas rebounded sharply after Trump announced a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz on April 12, with the operation going live Monday morning. The move caught speculative traders at their most bearish in over 16 months — CFTC data showed net short positions deepened to -184K contracts as of April 10. European TTF surged 9% on the same catalyst, and the thin Hyperliquid perp amplified the repricing as the market tests whether U.S. domestic gas can stay disconnected from a global energy crisis that just escalated again.
Natural Gas Breaks Below $3 as Spring Shoulder Season Crushes Heating Demand
Henry Hub natural gas has fallen sharply as the market transitions from winter withdrawal season into spring injections, with above-average temperatures forecast across most of the Lower 48 through mid-April. May NYMEX futures settled at $2.887/MMBtu on March 31, the lowest close since late February, as mild weather eliminates residual heating demand and storage levels sit comfortably above the five-year average. The move is striking because it comes against a backdrop of global energy chaos — the Iran war and Strait of Hormuz closure have sent European and Asian gas prices parabolic, but U.S. domestic supply remains insulated from those disruptions.
