The EIA national diesel average dropped six cents to $6.292 a gallon, with every reporting region showing declines. Brent rebounded about 2% to $106.50 early Tuesday after a U.S. strike on Iran's Qeshm Island.
Lower diesel costs ease trucking and feed delivery expenses, but Iran-related crude volatility keeps the outlook uncertain.
After 86 past bearish report events, DIESEL moved a median -0.9% over 5 sessions (37% higher; middle half -4.3% to +0.9%), and +0.4% over 20.
After 41 past neutral report events, BRENT moved a median -1.4% over 5 sessions (41% higher; middle half -4.0% to +1.9%), and +1.8% over 20.
