U.S. Natural Gas Futures Slip Ahead of Storage Data

1528 ET – The U.S. natural gas market's focus on weather keeps futures in the red while tomorrow's inventory report is expected to show a slight decline in the storage surplus. 'Natural gas continues to take a hit as production numbers stay incredibly strong breaking records and the possibility that tropical storms may do more damage to the demand side of the equation than the supply side,' Phil Flynn of the Price Futures Group says in a note as Hurricane Erin moves off the Atlantic coast. Nymex natural gas settles down 0.5% at $2.752/mmBtu. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
0911 ET – U.S. natural gas futures are lower and struggling for traction heading into the tail end of the summer. 'Traders are grappling with the reality that power demand lacks the same punch as last season,' Jack Weixel of East Daley Analytics says in a note. 'The summer so far has passed with a whimper, in contrast to the record generation demand in the 2024 season.' Reasons for lower power-sector demand this year include higher gas prices, cooler temperatures and a greater share of renewable generation, he says. 'Despite the headwinds, this season's power burn should still eclipse summer 2023 and go down as the second largest in history.' Nymex natural gas is down 0.5% at $2.752/mmBtu.

Why Nano Dimension Stock Triumphed on Thursday

Key Points Investors liked that the company's financial reporting will be more aligned with that of most publicly traded companies in the U.S. It has adopted the GAAP accounting standard. 10 stocks we like better than Nano Dimension › Usually, with publicly traded companies, a change in accounting regime doesn't have much of an effect on investor sentiment. That wasn't quite the case Thursday with additive manufacturing specialist Nano Dimension (NASDAQ: NNDM), which saw its share price bump almost 3% higher on news of such a shift. That rise contrasted rather well with the slight (0.4%) decrease of the S&P 500 index. Four important new initials The change is from International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) frequently used by companies overseas, to the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) heavily favored in the U.S. This move is pleasing to the many U.S. investors who either hold or track the stock, as from now the company's financials will be in line with some of the top businesses in this country. For anyone who isn't an accountant, IFRS and GAAP statements look fairly similar, with few significant disparities. As part of its shift, Nano Dimension published its 2024 annual results under GAAP standards. Not surprisingly, they matched the IFRS figures for the most part -- revenue was the same, at under $57.8 million, as were balance sheet items such as cash and cash equivalents, and inventory. Still deep in the red There were several differences worth noting, though, mainly in the profit and loss statement's bottom line. The company's net loss across 2024 was a touch steeper under the new standard, at just under $99.9 million; the IFRS-compliant deficit was $96.9 million. No line item experienced such a drastic change as to warrant concern, or shift anyone's take on Nano Dimension's performance. So ultimately, the accounting move was taken as a positive by market players. Should you invest $1,000 in Nano Dimension right now?
