Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, noted, “As the summer driving season winds down, gasoline prices are falling in most parts of the country due to muted demand. Diesel fuel prices have also dropped to their lowest level since before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Unless a major hurricane disrupts refineries in the Gulf region, we might see further declines this week. The national average could reach its lowest point of the summer. However, if economic data exceeds expectations, there could be a temporary price increase. Some states, particularly in the Great Lakes and Florida, may experience routine price cycles, but overall, prices are lower nationwide compared to a year ago.”
