Local stations were at $3.79-9 for a while.. Today (wednesday) the prices jumped 20 - 30 cents. Stations near us that were $3.79-9  are now $4.09-9 for regular.

Diesel is still the same price, i doubt that lasts long.

Some rumbles on the price increase is: Summer blend change over(its not summer here yet)... and the Calliefornia refineries are not operating at capacity .

Street prices on regular have run $4.40 a gallon for a near 10 days...  Came down to $4.30 a gallon at a few stations.

Diesel dropped to 4 dollars a gallon. My F350 is just over half tank still (48 gal tank)

The average cost of regular in NJ is currently at $3.61.

Most stations in my area of NJ are $3.41 to $3.52.

[Crosley.In.AZ]

Street prices on regular is in the 4 teens or lower.. $4.13 to $4.03  , that is around us.

Diesel is running at 4 dollars a gallon again, down from $4.10 to $4.20

I paid $3.60 a gallon for regular in Prescott AZ the other day on a Motorcycle ride.  The station offered Ethanol phree regular gasoline at 50 cents higher a gallon.  As I recall yrs ago , we were told when ethanol was blended in to gasoline it made the gasoline higher priced.  Now non ethanol gasoline is much higher priced.  Must be supply and demand at work here?

I've known for almost 20 years that the petroleum markets at all levels have massive amounts of price manipulation. All sorts of counterintuitive things happen at the same time. The price of crude goes down, but the price of gasoline goes up. The price of gasoline goes down, but the price of diesel goes up. Normal seasonal variations don't hold true, but no one knows why. Five refineries coincidentally shut down for planned maintenance at the same time, creating a weird spike. So much storage fills up at once that there's no longer any capacity available to actually ship the stuff. I've seen all of this and more.

We all know OPEC + Russia are massive players in all of this. I stumbled over this today, though...there's a guy here in the USA who colludes with them and has the power to move markets. One man! Imagine that. https://prospect.org/power/2024-05-07-mega-donor-scott-sheffield-opec-exxonmobil/?utm_source=ActiveCampaign&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Who%20Created%20the%20Israel-Palestine%20Conflict%3F%20%7C%20Weekend%20Reads&utm_campaign=Weekend%20Prospect%20Reads%205102024

I did some reading on clear gasoline... It seems that sulfur has been scrubbed out of it too. But 50 cents extra a gallon scrubbing?
