The latest OPIS report reveals that retail fuel margins across the US dropped again this week. Average retail fuel margins were down $0.013 per gallon and now stand at $0.129 per gallon. That’s the fourth consecutive loss, and retail fuel margin averages are now at the lowest level since July 19 of this year.
The year to date average now stands at $0.189 per gallon, while the Q4 average is at $0.205 per gallon. The six week average is now at $0.195.
This is the second consecutive week that retail fuel margins this year are below the equivalent day of last year. In 2012, the average retail fuel margin was $0.167 per gallon. Last year average retail fuel margins rose $0.07 per gallon over the first three weeks of December, before dropping $0.11 per gallon the last week of the year.
