Fitch's split read on hedging economics is a reminder that the oil and gas side of the energy complex is decoupling, not moving as one trade. Unrealized losses on oil hedges signal that producers' downside protection has turned into a drag, while gas producers locking 2028 prices suggests they see value in extending the curve further out than oil peers. How long that divergence persists, and whether gas hedging appetite extends beyond 2028, is the open question.
