The actual figure of -12 billion cubic feet was significantly less than the analyst estimate of -18 billion cubic feet. This smaller-than-expected drawdown may exert downward pressure on natural gas prices, potentially affecting energy sector stocks. The market impact is likely to be short-term, driven by immediate sentiment shifts regarding supply levels.
