June 16, 2016
The EIA reported a +69 bcf injection for the week ending June 9, coming in above our own number at +60 bcf and the Bloomberg median at +65 bcf.

The EIA reported a +65 bcf injection for the week ending June 2, coming in below our own number at +73 bcf and the Bloomberg median at +76 bcf.
