Diesel reaches $6 per gallon in US
Diesel prices in the United States have risen for the first time to over six dollars per gallon, with a national average of $6.06. This reflects an increase of eight cents in just one week, surpassing the previous high recorded in June 2022 by 24 cents. These increases are more than 55% higher since the start of the war between the United States and Iran, and are attributed to declining refinery output and Russia and China restricting their diesel exports. The rising costs of diesel, which is the primary fuel for trucks, trains, and construction equipment, are leading to higher transportation and goods prices. It is expected that diesel prices in California will exceed $8 per gallon, impacting food prices and leading to increases in shipping and storage costs.
