Natural gas leads decline in energy futures
Monday, July 12, 2004 7:23:19 PM
SAN FRANCISCO (AFX) -- August natural gas closed at $5.857 per million British thermal units, down 4.6 percent for the session to log a fourth-straight trading day of losses amid weak demand. The contract hasn't closed under $5 since April 30. Crude futures also closed lower, reversing from an earlier climb near a six-week high of $40.75 a barrel. August crude closed at $39.50, down 46 cents.
