1108 ET - Natural gas futures extend gains as the EIA reports a smaller-than-expected inventory increase for last week. Gas in underground storage rose by 16 billion cubic feet to 1,846 Bcf, versus expectations of a 23 Bcf increase in a Wall Street Journal survey of analysts. The storage deficit against the five-year average widened to 74 Bcf from 40 Bcf the week before. The deficit had narrowed sharply in the four previous weeks due to mild March weather cutting into demand. Nymex natural gas is up 1.9% at $3.310/mmBtu. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
