Oil prices jumped following OPEC kingpin Saudi Arabia’s decision to cut production by another million barrels per day.
On Sunday, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its partners — collectively known as OPEC+ — made no changes to its planned oil production cuts for this year, but coalition chair — and de-factor leader — Saudi Arabia announced further voluntary declines. The cuts will be implemented from July.

After a relentless month’s-long climb, U.S. national average gas prices have stabilized, with the current price of $3.594 for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline only 4 cents higher on a w/w and m/m basis but nearly 30% lower compared to year-ago levels.
Diesel prices have also declined, with the current national average of $3.907 good for a 33% Y/Y contraction.
However, state-by-state prices are more volatile.

4.00 Gas...... hell yes. I'd love to see it decrease 50 cents..
Oh, you mean all the people who've been paying 3.10; yea, it's going to rise.
Well, you know, I have to work with some of those skewed figures that are being reported.
Somewhat regional. Just does not work out for me to drive to Baytown, Texas for a fill up and save 50 cents / gallon.

You guy's remember the toilet paper shortage ? Really no shortage, at all. Simply panic buying after rumors.

Crude oil inventories in the United States unexpectedly fell sizably this week by 15.4 million barrels, the American Petroleum Institute (API) data showed on Tuesday after increasing by 1.319 million barrels in the week prior.
Analysts were expecting a draw of 900,000 barrels in U.S. crude-oil inventories. The total number of barrels of crude oil gained so far this year is 20 million barrels, according to API data, although the net draw in crude inventories since April is 27 million barrels.

On Monday, the Department of Energy (DoE) reported no change for the third week in a row to the inventory held in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) in the week ending July 28, with the SPR inventory still sitting at a 40-year low of 346.8 million barrels.
