Refinery bottlenecks push gasoline price risk toward $5 a gallon
TL;DR Summary
JPMorgan’s energy team argues a bigger problem than elevated crude prices is tightening refined-product markets: refiners cutting runs in Asia and Europe, plus reduced Middle East gasoline exports, are pushing gasoline supply tighter while jet-fuel yields rise. The result is narrowing balances and higher pump prices, with US gasoline around $4.56/gal and the risk of $5/gal looming ahead of the summer driving season.
