Gasoline futures rose above $3 per gallon on Friday, extending gains from the previous session, as markets continued to gauge the stability of the fragile ceasefire ahead of US-Iran talks this weekend. Israeli strikes on Lebanon prompted Iran to shut the Strait of Hormuz again, adding pressure to diplomatic efforts. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that operations in Lebanon fall outside the scope of the US-Iran truce, while Washington has scheduled talks next week with Israel and Lebanon to advance ceasefire discussions. Further undermining the ceasefire, President Donald Trump warned Tehran against imposing fees on vessels transiting the Strait and criticized Iran’s management of energy flows, calling it insufficient. Despite ongoing tensions, the earlier ceasefire announcement this week triggered a selloff in energy markets, with gasoline down more than 7% on the week.

Gasoline
Gasoline is the largest refined petroleum product consumed in the United States, accounting for a significant share of total oil demand. It is a key fuel for transportation and an important indicator of consumer activity and economic conditions. Gasoline futures traded in the U.S. include reformulated gasoline blendstock for oxygen blending (RBOB), which is used as the benchmark for wholesale gasoline pricing. These contracts are traded on NYMEX and represent 42,000 gallons (equivalent to 1,000 barrels) per contract. Delivery is based at petroleum product terminals in New York Harbor, a major East Coast trading and distribution center for both domestic refinery output and imports.

Gasoline Futures Rise
Gasoline futures rose to $3.08 per gallon on Thursday, following a sharp decline in the previous session, as the two-week ceasefire in the Middle East appeared to be unraveling following Israeli strikes on Lebanon. A wave of Israeli airstrikes swept across Lebanon on Wednesday, prompting Iran to halt the passage of oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, though the White House denies the waterway is closed. Iran’s Parliament speaker said three key clauses of a 10-point ceasefire proposal were violated ahead of negotiations scheduled for later this week in Pakistan, adding that under such conditions, a bilateral ceasefire or talks were no longer reasonable. The closure of the strait, which connects the Persian Gulf to the world market, has triggered the biggest oil supply disruption in history. Analysts also noted that even if transit through the waterway resumes, the restoration of energy supplies will not be immediate.

Gasoline Futures Drop 10%
Gasoline futures shed over 10% below $3 per gallon on Wednesday, hitting an almost four-week low, following Iran’s agreement to temporarily reopen the Strait of Hormuz as part of a two-week ceasefire with the US and Israel. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the passage would be managed in coordination with the nation’s armed forces, while considering technical limitations. President Donald Trump had previously stressed that the ceasefire hinged on Iran reopening the waterway, a step necessary to finalize the deal. Reports also indicated that Israel will suspend strikes during ongoing talks, with the first round of US-Iran negotiations scheduled for Friday in Islamabad. The announcement came just under two hours before Trump’s deadline for Iran to reopen the strategic strait or face targeted strikes on its power plants and bridges.
