This week's full report

Gasoline pump prices rose +0.9¢ for the week, and continues well below year ago levels, by -49.9¢, or -13.5%. Days supply fell to 23.8. For perspective... last year was 26.8 days. 



Inventories were mixed , with crude increasing +5.8M barrels; Distillates down -3.1M barrels; Gasoline stocks fell -6.2M barrels. Total Petroleum + products +SPR slid -7.7M barrels, with the SPR rising +680K barrels.


The total products is still +12.6M barrels ahead of year ago levels.


For those interested, the exports of Crude, Petroleum Products, Including Gasoline has far outweighed the imports, by this much, since March, 2022.


The current crack spread rose from last week's $15.70, to $16.52. Gasoline steady to $8.42 from last week's $8.42. Distillates to $8.10, compared to last week's $7.83.

One set of data indicates a further easing of pump prices, while another suggests nearing a bottom. Which is exactly what last week's data suggested, and the week prior. This past week, did indicate both slight up and down movement in prices. -3.2¢ ~ +3.0¢. Take your pick. 

This coming week... only time will tell.
