What the experts are saying<\/p>\n
\u25aa Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy: \u201cAverage gasoline prices rose in 39 states over the last week, with the national average moving higher, while diesel prices declined in most states, offering a brief divergence at the pump. However, that divergence may prove short-lived. Oil prices have been climbing again as markets react to renewed geopolitical tensions and the cancellation of talks between the U.S. and Iran.\u201d As a result, gasoline prices are set to rise further this week, with diesel expected to follow. Many inland states\u2014 including those in the Great Lakes and Plains\u2014 could see average gas prices climb to their highest levels since 2022, while price-cycling markets may also experience another round of hikes in the next few days.\u201d<\/p>\n
