Trump Mulls Diesel Export Ban as Brent Nears $100, Diesel Prices Hit Record

On 23 September, President Donald Trump suggested a diesel export ban in the United States, sending Brent crude near $100 per barrel, while analysts warned the move could tighten global fuel supplies. Throughout September, U. S. diesel prices climbed to record levels, with the national average reaching $6.

45 per gallon, according to The Christian Science Monitor, after earlier reports from Fox Business and other outlets documented a steady rise from $6. 20 to $6. 44 per gallon as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the Ukraine conflict constrained supply.
