Symbol facts and market observations

About this symbol

It references the USD price of one MMBtu of Henry Hub natural gas. Henry Hub is a pipeline hub on the Louisiana Gulf coast.

Sources: trade[XYZ] (contract issuer), U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).

One Btu is the heat needed to raise 1 pound of water from 58.5 to 59.5 degrees Fahrenheit at an absolute pressure of 14.73 pounds per square inch. Deliverable quality follows Sabine Pipe Line LLC's FERC-approved tariff, and the principal component is methane. The minimum price increment is $0.001 per MMBtu, or $10.00 for 1 contract. All of the above is from CME Group and the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a cash price?

Gold, silver, platinum, and palladium reference spot prices in cash markets. Because copper, crude oil, and natural gas have no cash spot market, they reference specified futures contracts.

What happens when the contract month changes for a symbol that references futures?

The reference shifts to the next contract month in 20% increments from the fifth through the tenth business day of each month. During the transition, the reference value is calculated by weighting the two contract months.

What are the units?

Gold, silver, platinum, and palladium use one troy ounce. Copper uses one pound, crude oil uses one barrel, and natural gas uses one MMBtu. All are denominated in USD.

What dates do the figures for uses and production refer to?

They are figures from publications by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). Each entry states either the publication date or the data year in its text.
