“Gasoline prices in a majority of the United States have been stuck in narrow range over the past several weeks,” said Patrick DeHaan, GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst. “The longer oil and gasoline prices remain in this tight range, the harder it will be for prices to break out of that threshold.” DeHaan cites the lack of significant economic improvement and quiet tropics thus far as a reason prices have failed to move significantly. “Unless we start seeing consistently good economic news or several large tropical storms, gas prices should remain relatively muted,” he adds.
