Natural gas futures may advance next week as colder-than-normal weather boosts demand for the heating fuel, a Bloomberg News survey showed.
Six of 12 analysts, or 50 percent, forecast that gas futures will rise on the New York Mercantile Exchange through Feb. 22. Four, or 33 percent, said futures will fall and two predicted that prices will stay the same. Last week, 50 percent of participants said gas prices would decline.
