Gas Prices “Nudge Higher”

(Undated) – Gas prices continue to “nudge higher,” led by a jump in the Great Lakes area. According to GasBuddy Head of Petroleum Analysis, Patrick De Haan, since the national average price of gasoline fell to its lowest June level since 2021 last week, we’ve seen the drop in prices take a break, with some states seeing a small rise over the last week. However, De Haan says he expects this to be more like a short timeout, with an eventual return to falling gasoline prices in most states. The decline in diesel prices continues, with the national average price of diesel now at its lowest level since January 2022. De Haan says both gasoline and diesel prices remain below their year-ago levels. The current national average for a gallon of regular unleaded is hovering around $3.45.
