Europe sees psychological shift in gas markets after talks

Commentary published on November 26 argued that Europe has experienced a psychological shift in gas markets: traders increasingly assume that LNG and pipeline supplies will be sufficient, reducing the extreme risk premia seen in previous years. Although physical fundamentals remain sensitive to weather and geopolitical disruptions, the new pricing psychology has lowered short-dated hedging costs and reduced panic-driven volatility. For utilities and power generators this eases near-term input cost pressures, while policymakers and storage managers continue to monitor the balance between sentiment and actual deliverability of supplies through winter months.
