"Analyst Predicts Plummeting Gas Prices, Like Soaked Feathers"
Gasoline prices are expected to drop significantly as crude oil prices continue to decline, with one oil analyst predicting a drop of $0.25 to $0.50 per gallon at the retail level. Winter grade fuel, which is cheaper to produce, will also contribute to falling prices in many areas. The decrease in prices is driven by lower demand, which is currently at its lowest seasonal levels in 25 years. Oil prices have been declining after reaching a 2023 high in September, and JPMorgan analysts predict a slowdown in global oil demand this quarter.
