TTF price premium supported by weather uncertainty and the constant reminder of supply shocks

Over the past several months the TTF market has been provided strong reminders of the lack of spare capacity in the event of a major supply shock. This has left a premium embedded in price to remain in place despite storage still at 99% full and structural demand loss still seemingly in place for industrial and residential/commercial demand. We believe this price premium is justified for now with so much time still left in the winter withdrawal season, but that price premium could start to fade as the market gets a better view of December weather and should that weather not appear. We think a further and perhaps more substantial slide in price could ensue if early indications of January weather were to also suggest milder than normal.
