  • Retail fuel margins jump $0.078 this week

    Retail fuel margins rose $0.078 per gallon this week to $0.244 per gallon, according to the weekly OPIS report. That represents the second consecutive week of retail fuel margin increases, a total of nearly $0.11 per gallon higher than two weeks ago. Retail fuel margins are now $0.100 higher than one month ago.

    From a fuel price management perspective, c-stores can only hope these retail fuel margins continue for the remaining months of 2012 so they can make up for the rough summer months where retail fuel margins were in the range of $0.11 to $0.12 per gallon.
