Trend Analysis:
The national average for a gallon of gas dipped by three cents over the past week to $3.10. Lower oil costs and tepid domestic gasoline demand are the primary reasons. Today’s national average is eight cents less than a month ago and 32 cents less than a year ago.

According to new data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gas demand rose slightly from 8.83 million barrels per day last week to 9.15. Meanwhile, total domestic gasoline stocks fell from 213.6 million barrels to 210.9, while gasoline production decreased last week, averaging 9.7 million barrels daily.

At the close of Wednesday’s formal trading session, West Texas Intermediate rose by $1.40 to settle at $68.61 a barrel. The EIA reports that crude oil inventories decreased by 0.5 million barrels from the previous week. At 425.5 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are about 4% below the five-year average for this time of year.
