Retail fuel margins drop again

  • Retail fuel margins drop again

    OPIS reported that retail fuel margin averages across the US dropped again this week. The average US retail fuel margin stands at $0.112 per gallon, dropping $0.028 per gallon since last week. The combined decrease over the past two weeks is $0.109 per gallon.

    The six week average is $0.167 per gallon, down $0.005 from last week. The equivalent day in 2013 had retail fuel margin averages at $0.126 per gallon. After retail fuel margins bounced along the floor in January and February, March 2013 brought some welcome relief, and by the end of 2013 Q1, retail fuel margins jumped to $0.212 per gallon. We can only hope we’ll see a rise like that again this year.
