Preţul benzinei în SUA a scăzut sub 4 dolari pe galon pentru prima dată din iulie, pe fondul ieftinirii petrolului

The average gasoline price in the U.S. has fallen below $4 per gallon for the first time since July, reaching $3.9788. This decline is attributed to a significant slowdown in energy inflation and decreasing oil prices. Gas prices dropped by about 17 cents from the previous week and nearly 39 cents from last month. Analysts note that seasonal demand reduction and lower oil prices are contributing factors. Additionally, Brent crude oil prices fell below $90 per barrel, influenced by easing geopolitical tensions. However, concerns remain about potential long-term impacts of energy shocks on inflation.
