Predicted for 4. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Henry Hub natural gas recently traded at around $2.93–$2.99/MMBtu (EIA/OilPriceAPI, September 2–3, 2026). Futures price slightly below $3.00 for early September, reflecting market expectations. However, geopolitical escalation risks — particularly recent US airstrikes on Iranian targets (Reuters confirmed, September 2026) and potential Hormuz Strait disruptions — increase LNG export pressure and could reactively push US domestic gas prices higher. European TTF trades at €73.55/MWh, reflecting global supply concerns. A move from ~$2.93 to >$3.00 represents ~2.4% — a contrarian bet on NFP-day energy market nervousness. No Polymarket market for Henry Hub; futures signal a skeptical market view.

Polymarket shows a 53% probability for a 25 basis point hike as of September 10, 2026. US Core CPI August 2026 (release September 11) is expected by market consensus to be above 3.0% YoY. The ECB raised its deposit rate by 25 bps to 2.50% on September 10, 2026 – an inflation-fighting signal that provides cover for the Fed. Against a hike: a mild slowdown in US industrial output.
