Excess supply of gasoline coupled with slow demand has pressured refiners margins, Reuters reports, noting refining margins for the fuel in the United States sank to US$45.70 a barrel yesterday.
The drop follows the fourth weekly increase in gasoline inventories in the U.S., all of them quite hefty, leading to an all-time high of gasoline supplies, at 259.6 million barrels as of January 18.
Over the last four weeks, the Energy Information Administration reported gasoline inventory builds reaching a combined 26.6 million barrels.

According to the Reuters report, inventories in the Netherlands, Japan, and Singapore are also at multi-year highs, with the annual increase in their combined level at 21 million barrels, data from consultants FGE has shown.

In part, it's a consequence of beating China's ass.
Anything over .50 cents a gallon is too much.
On the west coast, it is getting to the point where the tax on gasoline exceeds the wholesale cost.
I paid 2.46 here in AZ today. I was surprised when I saw that while pumping gas. It put a “smirk” on my face.
