Do events in the natural gas market cause repercussions in the crude oil market? This paper studies linkages between the two markets using high-frequency, intraday oil and gas futures prices. By analyzing the effect of weekly oil and gas inventory announcements on price volatility, we show a bidirectional causal relationship. Both inventory gluts and shortages have a cross-commodity effect on price volatility not only for the next-month nearby futures contract but also for the following six months' contracts.
