Gas prices fall slightly nationally

Across the US, the average price of gas fell 1 cent per gallon, averaging $4.47 on Monday. The national average is up 45.2 cents from a month prior, standing $1.33 higher than in 2025. 

"The national average price of gasoline spent much of last week drifting lower after jumping early in the week as oil prices softened on hopes that diplomatic progress between the U.S. and Iran could help ease supply concerns," said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. "However, that optimism faded after President Trump’s meeting with China’s Xi Jinping failed to produce a breakthrough on Iran, while renewed warnings toward Tehran have helped push oil prices higher again."

Diesel prices drop

According to GasBuddy, the national average price of diesel has decreased 0.5 cents compared to a week ago and stands at $5.62 per gallon.

What's next:

De Haan said markets may stay sensitive as global oil inventories tighten historically due to the US-Iran conflict.

"As a result, gasoline and diesel prices are likely to remain volatile, and with Memorial Day approaching, any sustained increase in oil prices could begin pushing retail fuel prices higher again in the weeks ahead," said De Haan.
