Learn about our short-term power forecasts; Natural Gas Fund Watch and Bal-Week & Next Week Reports.


The Bal-Week and Next-Week reports provide short-term forecasts for key hubs in Northeast power markets; The PJM Western Hub, New York Zones A and J, and the ISO-NE Internal Hub. These weekly reports include analyst commentary on expectations for fundamental factors that present risk to short-term power prices, including Demand, Supply, and Congestion. For each fundamental factor, our analyst team assigns a bullish/bearish/neutral indicator and explains how forecast events, such as new transmission outages or a natural gas pipeline constraint, might affect power prices. High and Low sensitivities accompany our forecasts, providing a probabilistic range of expected settled power prices during the Bal-Week and Next-Week periods.

Natural Gas Fund WatchTM A one-week outlook and analysis of key near-term factors in the natural gas market. This includes a fundamental overview, a technical trend analysis, and a comprehensive look at the commodity fund (Wall Street traders) positions on the NYMEX exchange. Each of these factors is weighted to provide the client with a near-term bullish/bearish forecast of market price direction.
