Gasoline prices averaged USD 2.44 per gallon in June, down 2.7% from May. On 28 June, the commodity traded at USD 2.50 per gallon, up 3.3% from 31 May.
Prices declined as the crack spread—the price premium for gasoline over crude—fell to the lowest since February. Surplus supply was responsible: U.S. refiners’ output as a percentage of capacity hit the highest level since August 2023 in June, but gasoline demand was down 1.4% year on year in the first three weeks of the month.
